    Former four-division champion Roy Jones Jr. (51-4, 38 knockouts), fresh off his unanimous decision win over Anthony Hanshaw on July 14 in Biloxi, is planning a return to the ring in November.
    Promoter Murad Muhammad told the Pensacola News Journal that Jones will fight on either Nov. 3, Nov. 10 or Nov. 17. The curent front-runner to host the event is the Mississippi Coast Coliseum in Biloxi, and New Orleans is another possibility.
    Muhammad said that WBO light heavyweight champion Zsolt Erdei (27-0, 17KOs) is the number one choice for Jones' next fight. Glen Johnson (46-11-2, 31KOs), the man who previously knocked Jones out in 2004, is the second choice. Felix Trinidad would be the third choice, but he doesn't want to face Jones until Jan 2008..

    Hmm Shane or even Forrest at 154. It all depends on Tito and how low he is willing to go ..

    I never said he was shot I was always said Tito has a few good yrs left in him but he needs to fight fighters that compliment his style ..Jones is all wrong for him ..

    Both Erdei and Johnson KO Jones. No way he fights either guy.

    Im glad Roys serious about being on top agian and wants to stay active. I really want Jones-Trinidad so however Jones would fight in November it could be Brinkle Wilson and I wouldnt care.

    You still think Roy has what it takes to still be a threat?
