    i don't recall seeing any type of ring rust from tito...tito actually fought a great fight...you can tell he prepared well for RJ...he just didn't have any answer for his speed and the combos RJ threw. tito showed a great body attack although most were on the beltline. i thought this fight was going to be a stinker but it was a really great fight by both.

    Most who expected otherwise should have seen the Jones vs Prince Badi Ajamu fight for the NABO Light Heavyweight Champ. on Xyience : Jones won all rounds and only the first was close as the Prince ran smack into him, trapped him on the ropes and tried to smother him - after that, it's a relaxed Jones potshoting him all the way, the Prince on the verge of quiting as he couldn't breathe on the corner and told so to Buddy McGirt, managed to continue but only to commit fouls after fouls, two points deducted for blatant low blows on round 7 and another in the 8th, finished with cuts and swollen eyes and he has an impressive heavy bulk - nobody could have seen that and expect Tito to win... RJJ is not the one of old but still he steals a lot of shots with great handspeed, some power and intelligence... He clearly makes a hype act as he calls out for Calzaghe and now Pavlik or Taylor cuz he doesn't have the legs or the conditioning to keep up a fast, hard pace with those and would take many shots through his arms n could not absorb those but still, still he is Roy Jones Jr...
