Jones Jr vs Gunn. Introductions as we speak.
Jones Jr vs Gunn. Introductions as we speak.
This is pretty bad so far. Roy jab tapping with the jab. A big hook that was so slow missed completely. Roy on slightly better activity. 1-0.
Gunn is just following Jones around. Jones getting some confidence in this round. Leading with the right & smiling. 2-0.
Jones winning with the jab. Glorified sparring at this stage. Jones hanging the right out there and then suckering Gunn with the jab. Gunn reacting to every faint. A nice right landed near the end by Jones.
Much of the same. Jones tying Gunn up against the ropes and looking out at the crowd. 4-0. I can already hear the chants for Jones vs Green II.
I feel sorry for anyone who paid for this. Roy letting his hands go a bit more this round. The left is working as an uppercut and a hook. Another big right landed. Then back to clowning him behind the jab. 5-0.
Hate to say but anyone 'close to Roy' isn't watching out for him at this stage. The feet twitching after Enzo was the exit doors alarm going off, again. Wasn't Gunns brother a wrestler or something?
Jones could fight guys like this for another 10 years. Following him around. Throwing punches that land short. A right hand landed again and a left uppercut got through. Gunn finally gets close to Jones towards the end of the round against the ropes but Jones tying up safely. 6-0.
Jab reset, jab reset, jab reset x4 or 5 times, straight right repeat. Throw in a left hook or uppercut. Faint to make Gunn look stupid. Smile at him. Jones letting his go more now. Left and rights. A big right wobbled Gunn in the last 30seconds then Jones is back behind the jab again to end the round. 7-0.
Gunn apparently has a busted nose and it's stopped at the beginning of the eighth.
And the new WBF Cruiserweight champion of the world
Moderators feel free to delete this thread. Lets try to erase any record of that 'Fight'.
Roy Jones Jr. was dominant against Bobby Gunn, and afterward, Gunn couldn't have been more pleased.
"I was enjoying him beating me up," Gunn said after the fight.
Funny, it didn't look so enjoyable when this happened.
Either way, Gunn also seems to believe Jones still has a solid future in the sport.
"I think he'd beat 90 percent of people in the world," Gunn said. "I've fought some good men in my life. Great men. He's the greatest man I ever fought in my life."
As for who Jones could fight next, one possibility is 44-year-old Imamu Mayfield (26-10-2, 19 KOs), who has only fought twice in the last eight years but Mayfield was a world cruiserweight titlist in from 1997-98.

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
I'd still give 90% of men in the world a punchers chance at this point, if they had a full training camp.
