Roy Jones says stoppage was premature, wants Hopkins rematch

Roy wants it, Hopkins wants it, but at this point the fans couldn't care less for them fighting.

 

Of course. He's had a day to think about it and now figures he has an excuse to keep his payday alive. Give me a break.

 

ill watch man its boxing its a fight 2 guys who wanna beat the crap out of the other so badly wtf is there not to want fk the fans who jump on only when the media hype train is buzzing around... if they like boxing they will fkn watch!!

 

Wow!

Tgis is unexpected and ...sad.

Just retire Roy.

 

Yeah, no **** he does. Figures if he can squeeze out his last few bucks trading off his "legend" - why the hell not?


This is getting sad, really.

 

I still think that RJJ will be so motivated by fighting Hopkins, that he could win by decision. I don't think Hopkins has the power to stop RJJ. I would not miss the fight if it happens.

 

premature my ass, the ref saved him and rightfully could of stopped it a bit sooner.

 

**** it, Make the fight... It ain't my brain getting shook like a can of paint.

 

Once he realised that Hopkins still wanted the fight he convinced himself it was an unfair stoppage. Whilst Hopkins should win that fight easily it is by far the biggest payday for both right now, especially if it happens on Pac/May undercard.

 

I wish it would be the undercard, that would be awesome. Roy is a true fighter and I respect he that he refuses to quit, but he could still be a problem to most fighters out there, despite him dwindling downhill

 

I wouldn't but a Jones fight.Just retire and go away.

 

Any more excuses Roy?

 

Although I think the stoppage was arguably premature, I also think that you're right that Jones is making an issue after he realized Hops still wants the fight. Like i said i think jones was defending himself and blocking punches, but why was jones holding green's arm if he really had issue with the decision?
