RJJ is fighting today....

Roy Jones is fighting this weekend again.

Against a guy called Paul Vasquez.. http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?human_id=266056&cat=boxer

Its his first fight in front of his home fans in Pensacola in 6 years.

 

People that owe back taxes and have money pay it off ASAP in a lump sum. They don't let it linger around for years and accumulate interest and penalties. Jones didn't make near the money Holyfield or Tyson did and they went broke.

 

For the WBU World Cruiserweight World Championship of the World

notice this guy is coming of two consecutive KO1 losses and is actually a LHW...

 

Yeah, its actually a step down from the low standard of fighter hes been fighting recently.

Oh well, hes closer to a pension than his prime, let him have his exhibition bouts in his home town

 

General Zod,


It's pointless to continue the debate about his finances, because we don't agree, and we're just going around in circles.

But I just wanted to touch on what you've wrote below.

On numerous occasions, including here, you have discussed how Roy supposedly abused his HBO contract.

Yet that was simply not true.

We have seen numerous links that support the fact that Roy and HBO tried to secure big fights.

You yourself have posted links where Roy tried to fight Frankie Liles, and where HBO tried to secure the Dariusz M fight in the States. I have also posted two excerpts from Evander Holyfield's attorney, where he speaks of Roy wanting to fight Evander, as well as posting links of how he tried to fight Hopkins again in 2002.

It's a complete myth that Roy abused his contract and was only content to fight easy opposition. Big fights are always hard to make, and when they didn't materialise for Roy, he fought his mandatories. In 1999, HBO wanted him to fight Reggie Johnson to unify the division. But in doing so, he then had mandatory obligations from three of the main organisations. Now you can look at just about any fighters mandatory opposition, and for the majority of the time, the opponents are less than stellar.

You also have to take into consideration the following points:

HBO were happy to keep renewing his contract.

They had a shortlist of names who they deemed as appropriate opponents.

They publicly supported him on occasions when he said he'd made offers to secure better fights.

He fought on their network over 30 times.

He's commentated on their network on numerous occasions over the last 15 years.


So it's simply not true that he abused his contract. HBO were obviously frustrated at times, as were many of his fans. Things obviously didn't work out as they'd hoped. But that wasn't all Roy's fault.

Lastly, look at who he actually fought. A guy who abused his contract who was only content to fight subpar opposition, would not have fought the likes of Ruiz and Tarver in his mid to late 30's.

 

I don't mind this little bum tour he's having, but he's seriously going to get himself hurt fighting Huck...

 

It's not going to end well.

 

Maybe RJJ could give Kudryashov a thorough boxing lesson
