    1st off we have Bailey who might be the best pure puncher in the sport requesting the 8oz gloves and Jones says fine because he doesnt want any excuses. I dont think anyone would do that when they know that Baily's only chance is by KO.

    Saying yes to 8oz could show that he's a true warrior but at the same time, saying NO wouldnt have meant that youre a punk. Its not like Jones wanted 12oz. 10oz is what everyone uses so thats fine. You didnt have to prove anything by using 8 when everyone uses 10.

    Then fast forward to late in the fight. He gets dropped. Very hard shot & he hit his head on the canvas but he got up like a true Champ. I remember saying immediatly that he's lucky its the end of the fight and Baily doesnt have the skill to get to him. All Jones has to do is stay away which I know he will do and box the last couple of rounds to an easy victory.

    Instead he comes out pressing the

    . Like a true warrior he is trying to close the show. It was a boring if not unspectacular fight but Jones didnt wanna go out like a punk. Bailey had no chance unless Jones came to him. He couldve closed it on in a boring way an ran but he pressed the fight to show the boxing public he's foreal, to show the fans in the building some action, and to close the show instead of just coasting to a

    Ofcourse he played right into Bailey's hands of trying to chase a puncher around the ring. Walked right into a massive upercut with just less than 4min left in the fight that wouldve put him on path for a big name next. IDK weather to call him a warrior or an idiot but I lean more towards idiot........lol

    he personally wanted to fight the best randall bailey. the fact that the fight resulted in a knockout loss for jones is the reason people will call him an idiot.

    He was never that good in the first place.

    He's hard to watch. He has an ugly style and he's an arm puncher.

    It was only a matter of time.

    For all it's worth he should be commended for that gesture.
    From a business standpoint... He blew his 'self up.

    FAIL!

    would 10oz gloves have really made a difference with the flush punches bailey landed? anyways, I hope Jones puts this behind him and continues on with world title aspirations. People act as if a loss means the end

    He lacks talent. He got hit with two good shots the entire fight. One knocked him down, one knocked him out. I didn't like his reaction to either of those shots. Even with 10 oz. gloves, he would've been out.

    The guy got hit with two flush punches the entire fight and one of them flattened him and the other KTFOed him. If you still have hope for a guy who has an awful Chin like that and fights completely tentatively to hide said Chin, you are a ****ing idiot. He is going nowhere because his Jaw is simply not built for fighting.
