    well when he was prime he fought Ruiz, now at 41 and shot he is considering fighting Haye or Adamek.

    He didnt want to fight Bernard Hopkins for 17 years but at 40 it was a pieace of cake to make that fight.

    That's not what the guy said, he said he fought bigger challenges.... I dont see it. I don't see out of any of these guys RJJ has fought after his prime, with the exception of Joe Calzaghe, being better than his comp when he was fighting in his prime. RJJ has a underrated record, imo. It isn't the best out there, but it is still good.

    You can't blame the bhop fight on RJJ alone -- it was both the egos of B-hop and RJJ. 60-40 was not a bad deal, but RJJ was disrespectful about it, as he was an egomaniac.

    As for Haye and Adamek, that is to be seen. No disrespect to Adamek, but at heavy Ruiz was more accomplished. Ruiz was no pushover, he was dirty as ****, yes -- but he was a good win.

    Bottomline is.... RJJ is desperate. This desperation is sad, as in his prime he called the shots and was the man.
