What are your thoughts in this guys & gals? Very sad so see a guy like Jones resorting to fighting abroad when ten years ago, he would laugh when a opponent's camp would try to put their hometown in a contract.
i do not agree with the fighting abroad thing, in boxing you shouldn't have home advantage everytime you fight no matter how big a star you are. But what is sad is that he's still fighting and has to take beatings from guys he would have dominated in his prime. He should have retired long, long ago.
I'm not saying him not fighting abroad is fair or right, I'm just saying that a cash cow American fighter in their prime, very rarely will be cool with fighting out of the US. It just shows how far he has fallen that he is willing to go wherever the $ is now.
Yea no ****, I'm sure HBO is paying him pretty damn well, and he would be cool with that. Maybe he still has "stuff in the basement" and desperately wants one last great win before he hangs em up.
