Should Roy Jones have a last hurrah at Cruiser?

    After the Ruiz fight he had the World at his feet and could have retired a legend. However the rest is history.

    He missed of cruiser entirely on his move up to heavy and skipped over it on the way down. A good show against Maccarineli in Wales could tempt Calzaghe into a return. Ademek would have a massive turn out from the Polish contingent, and as a former light heavy he would not be too big.

    A cruiser belt would put him into the elite of 5 weight champs and a perfect way to sign off.

    He shouldve gone to cruiser after being a heavyweight, at the least he shouldve gone directly after the first Tarver fight.

    He should retire now, he isnt getting any better and a boring decision win over an average cruiser or a KO loss to a good cruiser does his record no good what so ever.

    Jones should retire, safe in his glory. Hopkins should go to Cruiser, win the belt, then outpoint that Russian lug Valuev, then retire.

    Omar Sheika is hardly a name a legend that RJJ would want to end his career with. BHOP is targeting Adamek, and if it goes ahead the winner would certainly have dollar signs in his direction
