it was sad seeing Roy lose to Johnson ,then he got beat again by Tarver, and Calzaghe etc. Right now, we all know Roy is past it and the only concern is his health. But, he should win this fight convincingly
I'm already getting to the point of "FUCK YOU ROY JONES", people have reached out to him hell HBO hinted to him that he should retire but it falls on deaf ears, if he wants to eat Gerber for the rest of his life than be my guest, I'm not gonna be tuning in though
Come on Roy just one more world title and it's over!!
Meh chill out guys. This Max Alexander dude is 14-5-2 with a 9% KO ratio. This is easy for Roy and theres nothing wrong with him picking up paycheques fighting guys like this. Until he loses to a bum no one should say otherwise.
RJJ still want's to fight this a case of WHY, he's got
all the money he need's?
He is a great fighter, is it pride or madness, has he
taken one to many punch 's to the head.?
And I hope he doe's not end up, getting hurt.:(
He can't retire until he wins a title in this division
I've seen an interview of him somewhere saying that he wants the cruiserweight title before he retires.
Roy was past it after first tarver fight.
Either way a cruiserweight title will add to his legacy.
I would want to see him retire but hes old enough and wise enough to know what hes doing and prepared to risk it to achieve his goal
I agree.
He stated on the donaire interview he wants the cruiser weight title even if he has the fight his mum for it lol.
On a side not does anyone think Roy could make 168?
If Roy doesn't get the nod in this one then he honestley HAS to quit. He shouldn't be fighting on anyway, he's well past it as we know. There's no way he will beat a top ranked fighter again who has any form of stamina and power, they will knock Roy out.
The big question is who does he think he can beat to get this title.
I don't see him beating Hernandez, Huck, Jones or the winner of Green v Wlodarczyk, so unless he's looking at the real minority belts, then I don't think there's a weak enough title holder there for him to beat.
To kinda put it into prespective Roy is 13-7 in his last 20 fights. With 3 loses in a row and 2 coming by bad KO. I like Roy just as much as the next guy, but it's time to hang them up before he gets seriously hurt.Quote:

And that middle loss of the 3, was against most peoples top pick for best light heavy in the world right now in BHop, an elite fighter!Quote:

Hes a poor fighter with no power. Until Roy loses to a bum he can keep fighting no problem. He totally dominated Lacy and Sheika recently enough, this guy aint shit compared to those 2.
My point is only relevant against poor or average opponents though. I, like others, have no desire to see Roy in against world class guys anymore, so dont think im saying that.
