    Jones is not as shot as his nuthuggers wants to show. He still has his reflexes, handspeed, etc.

    His only problem is, for some reason (starting when he fought Tarver 1st time), he decided to back straight up when he is pressured, instead of circling around the ring as he used to. I think Jones is thinking that he can fight like Ali and that his chin will hold up.

    I've never followed RJJ. The lighter divisions have always been my favorite but that left hook and uppercut were perhaps the fastest effective punches I've seen thrown. Geez, that was freakin crazy.

    Hey man, you ought to expand your horizons then. That video is an example of Roy Jones reliving a bit of muscle memory. This is like a great man getting out of a wheelchair in a nursing home for 5 minutes and, for a moment reviving his old self. Roy Jones did **** in is prime that will never be done in boxing again. Search YouTube. A lot of it is there.

    I'll take your advise and check it out. One reason I do not go about 154 in fights is cuz the fighters get slower, just not as much fireworks, one reason why I like Ali, cuz he fought like a welterweight. But yes, sometimes, Calzaghe is a bit too pondering for me, also B-hop, though I watch their fights. I'll check out his early fights, do you recommend any that will make me a fan of the heavier divisions for life? I mean, what is your fav RJJ fight?

    Roy's legs looked bad in his last fight. His hands are still sharp though. When he puts things together, Roy Jones Jr. is still a force to be reckoned with at light-heavyweight.
