    Danm!! Jones Jr. doing it big.
    I only wish he had this ambition during his prime, I bet he does aswell.

    Go Jones.

    We're talking about a fighter who's 6-4 in his last 10 fights with two of those loses coming by vicious KO. The other two losses were solid one sided decision losses to guys he beats in his prime. Throw in the fact that his biggest win in recent memory was Antonio Tarver in 2003 and you can see why people would prefer for Roy to retire.

    Remember a lot of us have great memories of Roy, I'd prefer his last memory as a fighter was him closing out a shot Jeff Lacy than getting KO'd by a legit 168 lber who can punch with both hands.

    Thing is he could probably give these other cats a payday they desire add to that they would think they could beat him = high possibility they would go ahead if they negociated

    This smells of Chris Byrd moving down to light heavy and being even less than a shadow of his former self when he got swamped by Shaun George.
