    According to the site thats the scene for boxing news. RJJ and Cloud are to have a title eliminator for Tarver's IBF belt as enforced by the IBF. Cloud has accepted the terms and are now waiting for Roy to do the same.

    Never seen or heard of this Cloud guy, whats he like ?

    I know Cloud from when I lived in Tallahassee. He is an awesome fighter but I have never seen him in with someone the class of Roy. I have seen him beat the **** out of the heavyweight Travis Walker in sparring. Cloud is very powerful and shouldn't be underestimated just because he is not a household name.

    Jones should have fought Woods when he had the chance to.

    this fight will not come off he needs to have an answer in by today maybe if they gave to till monday after the hopkins fight but rjj should not bother if he doesnt fight the winner of sat he should fight erdrei and get a belt then throw him in the mix or fight for the vacant wba belt he just needs a belt

    I never heard of this guy is the first time i heard of thi name i was thinking that this Cloud guy was a MMA fighter and Jones was doing a crossover just for the money.

    Jones ain't fighting Cloud. Come on, boys.

    Jones is supposed to accept this fight the DAY before the Hopkins-Calzaghe fight... :patsch to the IBF

    He is as sure as hell waiting for that result.

    Cloud is ****in dangerous. This ain't no straight up come forward brawler, this guy's a boxer/puncher with big time power and a good defense. Roy ain't gonna fight this guy.
