    So what happened to his fight against future HOFer Kimbo Slice. Is that still on?

    Lost a lot of money on that rap label and bad real estate deals. Still it should be impossoble to blow more than 150m.

    There are rumors that Roy is hoping to fight Kessler at 175.

    translation: "I'm broke and need a few big paydays so I can retire."

    I thought that before being knocked cold by Denis Lebedev. Roy Jones looked pretty good. He was able to make Lebedev miss a lot, and took up to the end some solid shots. He wasn't able to muster up any offense of his own though. Kind of like the Hopkins fght.
    I think Jones can still win a championship. However he's going to have to say "**** it I might get knocked out" and go on the offensive more.
    He has a study job with HBO, so I don't think this is about money. I think it is about ego. I remember a headline before the Thomas Hearns/Virgil Hill bout. In referance to Hearns. "Healthy, Welthy, but Not Wise" These wouds may fit Jones now. Than again Hearns did win that fight.

    I wonder if there's someone secretly paying Roy to be a stuntman, to see how much more beatings can he take

    Sad. Roy was untouchable for a time, now he could end his career with double digit losses :? he needs to fight a few cans and retire.

    Very interesting analysis. I wish RJJ had retired after he beat Ruiz.
