    You must be new to boxing? Jones was never the same from the Traver fight

    Davis has a KO 100% but I won't get my hopes up of seeing another epic and absolutely hysterical HL reel Roy glass jaw shattering as he's only had 2 fights both of which were against fighters who were making their debuts. But if Davis can become the 10th man to shatter Roy's nauseatingly fragile old lady glass mandible (11th if we include Roy's amateur KO loss to Irish non puncher John Reid) he'll certainly earn himself a new fan in me.

    I guess he just really really enjoys fighting.

    He's a grown man who knows the risks. He has a family who is hopefully asking him to retire, but I suspect hes just gonna fight until he ge.ts seriously hurt.

    Hes an ATG and nobody with even halfa brain considers the last 10 years as part of his legacy anyway.

    Everybody knows how good he was at his peak

    Yeah tarver cracked his chin and he never really recovered, he fought Johnson too quickly after that and got stopped even worse by someone he would have played with.

    Still showed greatness in spurts but his chin that let him take shots from Ruiz and tarver in the first fight wasn't there and the reflexes and legs were eroded, he didn't make the right style changes

    He'll eventually end up drooling from the corner of his mouth in a wheelchair if he keeps this up.

    This should not be sanctioned anywhere in the civilized world.

    Roid Jones
    Jon Jones
    Guillermo Jones
    Marion Jones

    Brings new meaning to the idiom 'Keeping up with the Joneses,' if you catch my drift?

    He passes the medicals.

    Maybe they should enforce an age limit, or the different states have a clause where a fighter can't fight after suffering from a succession of heavy knockout defeats.

    I don't know what the answer is really. But he shouldn't be allowed to face any top 15 rated fighter in any weight class. But if he passes the medicals and fights low level opposition, there's nothing to prevent him.

    Prime Joe was killing himself to make weight in order to defend a lightly regarded WBO belt.

    Think about that for a moment.

    What you've wrote is pure fantasy.
