    Because he's old and Dawson is good.

    Dawson should have fought Adrian Diaconu but he was scared and took an easy fight against Tarver

    If you listen to Jones post fight interview he seemed quite happy just to get through it.

    Jones was not there in those fight man... He threw like 10 punches in a round everyone would have win against that version of Roy Jones

    Diaconu, the guy who decapitated Rico Hoye in 3 rounds...Tremendous uppercut, I thought the guy was dead

    i think the fight with johnson was the fight rjj tried to survive in. he was backpeddling, gunshy, and looked out of it.

    Having watched all three of the Jones/Tarver triology, i'm convinced that Jones lost a considerable amount of reflexes, foot speed, and stamina when he had to come back down from HW. He fought a mortal Roy Jones. Not the Superman version.
