    DM and Virgil Hill is on until they break a hip or something on training...

    Why doesn't RJJ call out Dariusz M??? He's breaking his neck trying to get back into great shape. Surely Jones still isn't afraid to lose to him?

    Hill, despite being in his 40's (which DM will also be, by the time they fight), is actually an active fighter, and has had great career longevity.

    DM won prime for prime, but now 11 years later, will imo be the underdog. That's how over-the-hill he is. He was shot against Richard Hall in 2001, very shot against Gonzalez in 2003, and done against a still hungry Tiozzo in 2005.

    This is purely about the money and not about anything else...but I agree, Michalczewski coming back should lead to an RJJ fight, if for nothing else than to simply make up for a lost chance in the 1990's.

    You are right in the sense that both of these guys should each give the other a holler about finally getting it on.

    I actually think Hill actually has a bit left in the tank. He still has a great workrate for a old man.

    if dm is fighting hill as a tuneup or to gauge what he has left, that's fine. if he's just trying to get some cash, why would anyone support that fight unless you're an absolute dm diehard fan?
