The Best There Is, The Best There Was, The Best There Ever Will Be
What the hell the first punch didn't even look that hard, it looked like a punch that almost missed IMO. I'd like to see that again in better quality, then RJJ just covered up he did block quite a few of the punches. And he didn't even throw back, pretty strange IMO RJJ's punch resistance is ridiculously bad now.
I don't know, it looked a bit premature TBH. Jones was on his feet and not taking all that many hard shots, but he wasn't firing back either. It was a little bit Manfredo/Calzaghe for me. Jones was wobbly but trying to buy himself time, but it was playing with fire just hoping the storm would subside and the ref was having none of it.
A bit lame all in all, the shot that knocked him down seemed more a glancing blow than anything else too.
Watching it again, I just think the fight is bizarre. Jones fought a downright peculiar fight out there. Good on Green for doing what needed to be done, but Jones fought plain old weird.
You have to wonder how Green might have faired if Jones was able to work his way through the round because he was throwing an awful lot and trying to put power behind most of them. He would most likely have gassed after half a dozen rounds. But that's just wishful thinking on my part, Jones was stopped in the first and it doesn't matter how much I daydream.
That punch looked like it caught him high up on the side / back of the head and Jones looked like he was completely gone to me, especially when he went back to the ropes the last time just before the ref stopped it. He looked drunk..... Is Danny Green that big a puncher or was that just right on a perfect spot?
