    I don't care what the delusional commentators say but Lebedev was beaten tonight like he was a class below. I only witnessed one boxer in the ring and that was Jones. The other was a kid full of heart but little skill.

    Wow just read about it on facebook. How did it go?

    I guess this really establishes Jones's legacy, for longevity, ability and going over so many weights.

    When you look at Cunningham's resume now, it really is good. He has beaten 3 of the 4 current cruiser weight champions and had Ross got the decision be deserved vs. Hernandez it would be 4 out of 4.

    Yes Cunningham, was great at his prime. Yet after he lost against Hernandez it was clear that he is over his prime right now.

    This fight is the best fight of this year so far. I hope we could see the winner of Huck/Afolabi against Jones but I doubt it.

    Fantastic fight.
    Wich shows again how important a iron chin can be in boxing. Jones was the better boxer in there, but also took the hardest shots. With some of them it was almost a miracle that he didn't just stay on his feet, but countered back like he just got bitchslapped by a featherweight.

    Lebedev's eye looked horrendous, and the fight should have been stopped much earlier of course. But it gave us fans a fight we will remember 20 years from now.

    Year of old past prime semi retired guys so far: first Thompson stomps over Price, then Jones beats the snot out of Lebedev like he stole something

    True 'goodness' is measured vs highly skilled opponents.
    Today was a good example.

    I've long said Lebedev was extremely overrated.

    50 vcash on Guillermo... Wish I had had more.

    Lebedev won the majority of the rounds and did it with one eye from the 3rd round on. Care to explain how a mediocre fighter would accomplish that against Jones?
