If it is indeed his last fight then I very much want him to win, roids or not.

Also, if it turns out to be for a world title all the better.

I know I'm terrible.

---

I thought better of you than that. :(

---

I'm a big Roy Jones fan and want dto see him finally retire in style with a good win.

---

Is cheating and putting someones life at risk really style and a good win?

Thats cheating and im pretty sure thats what this move to Russia is about and sad and pathetic that he needs to do that.

---

Lol You ever take steroids?

They don't exactly magically turn you into a super sayain killing machine.

This is all speculation anyway.

---

No but there has to be a reason Jones and other fighters keep getting caught using them!

---

They taste like candy.

I think old fighters should just be allowed to include PED use in the contracts they sign. Obviously it would get a backlash from a lot of fans, but with how rampant they are anyways, and how little most people understand them, why not. A 40 something year old using steroids is AT BEST allowing himself to train the same way a 20 or 30 something would, there is no possible way he is enhancing anything that wouldn't have been present with regular training at that age. MMA fighters often get an exemption for testosterone, with it being almost exactly the same scenario.

+1 for die hard loyalty brother, but Roy is fookin delusional with 'no point fighting Enzo if not a title' :cwm13: Two shot unranked shadows possibly handed title by a organization whos champ has ko'd both. Even pro wrestling couldn't make this garbage up.

Okay okay just have em fight for the WBA Regular title then lol

I honestly feel like Enzo would be a big challenge for Roy at this stage. As I understand it, Enzo has been fighting the better opposition recently. He's also the naturally bigger man.

Whats with Moscow lately :confused Kostya just moved back there,which could be the only highlight of the night, if he has nothing to do and we see him sitting ringside with his feet up grinning.

Shocking matchup but I'll watch it at some point. I'm going to go with an Enzo KO.

Providing Roy Jones Jr turns up & I don't think he will, it's actually an intriguing contest & a bit hard to call.

Roy is older than the universe itself & although Enzo is a lot younger, his jaw seems to be made out of balsa wood.

Enzo is fortunate that Roy is not a volume puncher & has always relied on single shots & coupled with the fact that Roy no longer has that inhuman speed he once had might play in Enzo's favour.

Like a I said earlier, my money is on Jones Jr not turning up, but if he does, I'm going to lean towards him, but it wouldn't surprise me if Enzo sparked him because I just don't know what level either man is at these days.

Enzo deffinitely has the power and youth to turn Jones lights out again but there is a reason Roy is so determined to be in Russia and I think most are realising its to do with being able to help his performace with substances he wouldnt get away with taking elsewhere.

Out of interest would a win here put Jones in any rankings after Macaranellis fight against Braehmer?

Roy looks in good shape and is pretty confident , I'm not sure how strong his chin is these days but it may be exciting.
Roy also didn't look as old in person .

More credence to my thinkng on why Roy is loving Russia.

BBC Sport - Athletics doping & corruption report to be published

Athletics doping: Wada commission wants Russia ban - BBC Sport


Roy's going to come to the ring looking like Scrappy Doo from Scooby Doo 2 aint he.

Can't believe Roy is the favourite. Enzo is 10 years younger, naturally bigger and it was only a year ago he was giving Braehmer a fight. He's chinny but has always been a banger. Roy, rightly, hasn't fought anyone with a pulse in years. Unless it's a fix, Enzo KO is 11/4. Thanks.

Good luck to Roy.

He can do it!

Jones is warming up. Hope the Russian can win this one.

We can dream for a happy ending to his career and good, solid win to go out on.

Come on Roy! Turn back the clock and be superman one last time!

Enzo coming in with I wont back down.

Jones comes in with Russian flag.

Russian national anthem. Seems weird Roy looking up to it.

Roy with the Russian anthem ;D

Madness!

Roy Jones has tits. Where did that body go?

I hate seeing Roy get chinned but he sort of is asking for it

Roy getting outboxed

Exactly how 'shot' would you fellas across the pond say Enzo is going into this?

Fuck me

Really? Cannot see the fight here, thanks for the rbr and heads up.

Fuckin Roy...

Got KOd BAD this time.

No story book ending here :(

Enzo seems embarrassed for Roy.

Roy took a dirt nap, KTFO???

That was very scary for a minute. The frozen solid face first fall to the canvass is always unpleasant to look at.

Why the fuck do you pick someone like Enzo Mac for your final fight? For all his vulnerabilities the fucker can clump. About half a dozen people there know who Enzo Mac is, it could have been anyone. Really stupid.

Lol in hindsight a rubber match with Montell Griffin woulda been the smarter choice

That was a pathetic mismatch that should have never happened. An old age pensioner against a man that's not long from competing in world class. Horrible.

Who is up for Jones v Benn v Eubanks now?

Defense is everything.

Floyd could never end up like that.

Love Roy to bits but floyd is the complete package.

Is jonny nelson getting better or worse as a commentator?

I said that this was a bad mismatch when it was announced. Benn would make more sense.

You been drinking man?! Enzo hasn't been world class for years ... He hasn't competed against world class either.?. Brahmer isn't up there... And I love the man!
