    that was a shame to see, Jones did well in the fight, I had him winning 3 rounds which is a lot more than i expected him to win. I hope the people around him can talk some sense into him and make him retire

    I was genuinely scared there for a minute. Thought he might have been seriously, SERIOUSLY hurt

    Roy in his intervew with Russian TV:
    Roy NEEDS to be stripped of his Boxing license. This is no joke. Whoever issued him a license to fight MUST take it away from him. It's for his own ****ing safety.

    I hope he takes that for what it is ie a brutal knockout loss

    Rather than twist it "10 seconds more, I had him shook" This guy is world class i still have it etc etc.

    His handspeed as mentioned was still class but everything else has gone

    There will always be somewhere that will license him. It's a money-hungry sport and people will still turn up to watch Roy Jones.

    Makes me sick.

    This is sometimes is the problem with boxing not being under a single rule. These commissions are so ****ing corrupt and don't care for fighters health.

    Your right he should have his license stripped he suffers way to many stoppages to be allowed to compete.

    People say ok but he can box low level pick a few bucks up and stay safe but boxers can't leave it alone they win a few then start dreaming again.

    It's Roy Jones' choice. It would be an even sadder day when the authorities take away a mans right to make his own decisions. If a man wants to fight let him. I agree its hard to watch but Roy is a smart guy, he knows the risks.

    :good

    To summarise the fight for you:

    Jones was landing some decent counters but didn't have the tank to throw enough to bank the rounds/hurt Lebedev. Lebedev shown Roy far too much respect and even when he backed him on to the ropes he would back off after Roy covered up. He struggled to land the money shot, until the 10th that is...
