    Jones to mee Mclellan or whatever his name is and then he'll see why it's best for him to retire.

    Roy fought mandatories/former champs and won decisively against fellow ATGs in Toney & Hopkins, his legacy is sealed and he needs to think about his health and family. His place in history is sealed but he's ruining his image fighting on as the fossil that he is.

    LOL at Calzaghe nuthuggers saying he ruined Jones. Jones has ruined himself and continues to do so, he's been shot since '05 and couldn't pull the trigger then so it's sad that he's even worse now. He used to be a marvel now he's just a delusional old man him and Holyfield.

    I cant understand how he has money issues.

    Hes fought in dozens of world title fights,often as the most bankable fighter on the planet,with all the sponsorship deals that went with it.

    He has a cushy color commentator gig.

    He even had a mildly successful arap career and has been in a movie or two.
    Hes not some drug addict or alcoholic.

    He promoted himself for the most part.

    Where did the money go.

    Joe had nothing to do with it. Age catches up to everyone sooner or later. After the Ruiz fight, he should have retired. Please don't confuse RJJ with Lacy.

    Hes out of his freikin mind if he thinks he can keep going. That knockout was just as bad, maybe worse, than Maccarinelli/Frenkel. At least Maccarinelli had enough sense to call it quits.

    Jones was never at any time the most bankable fighter on the planet.

    Jones never showed much heart in his fights and is prolly the reason why he can't take a hit either. he wasn't tested early in his career so he doesn't know how to respond to a chin checker.

    Roy Jones was knocked out cold by Glen Johnson and Tarver years before Calzaghe dared to step out of his nest and fight a shot Roy Jones. Jones had been shot long before Clazaghe had the courage to fight him.

    Jones and McClellen were very close I believe. Jones even said something along the lines of never wanting to end up like his friend Gerald and would get out at the right time. Makes it even sadder

    calzaghe's hands were ****ed so he simply boxed roys head off with a superior skill set giving jones a prolonged beating. once a fighter gets lacyied like that then they are never the same physically or mentally.

    Look at him, he needs to hang them up or he'll end up drinking food through a straw. He's into all that God nonsense, probably thinks God is telling him to fight. :-:)patsch
