    Anyone else going to the fight this weekend at MSG in NYC? I'll be there... fight is getting more intriguing by the day...back at this time in 2004 no one in their right mind would give RJ even a slim chance...but things have changed....

    How do you see the fight going Scully? I'm hoping Roy can pull it out....but after rewatching the RJJ/Tito fight last night I'm finding it real hard convince myself Roy can do this.

    Not going to be able to make it to NYC this week - but would love to hear your take on it? How do you see the fight playing out, Iceman?

    You know.... it's a very difficult fight to choose because of both guys , really...their age but ESPECIALLY the fact that RJ is such an unknown commodity at this point in his life and career... IF RJ has his legs and his mind in a good place I can definitely see him keeping Joe at bay and winning a good decision..one thing that keeps coming back to me is the fact that RJ is very sharp from the outside and if Joe thinks he wil just walk all over Roy on the way to outpunching him, I could see RJ loving that. I guess it depends on what RJ has left in his legs...I wouldnt bet on either guy at this point

    Yep, it's the "unkown commodity" factor that makes it so intriguing.

    The only consolation I took from that fight is that making 170 might have hurt Jones' performance.

    Easy. Joe's gonna win quite convincingly. If RJJ was in his prime, he would conquer- however he aint, so he won't.:good

    im seriously thinkinf people are under estimating Jones here, in my opinon its a dangerous fight that the hopkins fight and i truly believe that. Joes style could fall into Jones hands quite nicely if he bides his time and take the open shots, he may need to bide time and a few punches, but i think Jones can find gaps in joe whilst joe is on the attack, and if he has some kind of power left i think he can hurt joe. I'm a calzaghe fan so hope Joe does it, but i respect these two fighters so much, neither will go down in my estimations after this fight, far too many hostile disrespctful posts about these guys lately.
