    he needs to hang them up, he looked terrible tonight and got dropped buy a guy with 4 kos on a 17-0 record. Did anyone else bother to watch this or has everyone just stopped caring? It's a real shame. He should go into training fighters now, he'd probably be good at it. Does he have any other interests other than boxing?

    I watched it. Roy looked fine, he controlled the fight with his jab.

    Anyone can get knocked down.

    He needs to retire, because who he is.

    He won tonight, but these guys should not even be inside the ring with him.

    I'm pulling your leg.

    But in all honesty what do people expect. Roy has been considered a corpse for about 5 years. So with that in mind I feel he did OK, and in reality the fight was close.

    Although I wish he would stop taking these dangerous fights in people's backyards.

    Warriors, gladiators fight until their is nothing left, nothing!

    That's all Roy Jones is doing.

    It will end badly, but it will be so beautiful.

    Infact its already ended badly, and I think it's a beautiful thing watching a warrior go until he has nothing left.

    Its tragic, but so artistically beautiful.

    I was hoping you were, I planned on ignoring you because I thought you were trolling. I didn't expect him to turn back the clock obviously, infact I didn't expect much at all. I just think its sad and he should find something else to put his energy into. It's not beautiful to me pk, It's just sad and his family need to have a word with him. He needs to retire on this win because he is going to end up a W on some complete bums record if he isn't careful

    I watched it, he looked HORRENDOUS.

    People who say he's a shadow of him former self are wrong, because even a shadow of the old Roy Jones would of won this tonight easily.

    I saw the fight and Jones looked horrible. He looked confused when he was dropped by what was hardly massive punch. It's such a shame that Jones is reduced to this. It was sad to watch.

    He looks the same but he has clearly lost that step that seperates a great fighter from an average contender, which is what he is now.
