Jones: I must KO Tito!

[Hulk]

....this matchup is going to KO the PPV ratings because it's happening nearly 10 years too late

I don't know, both guys, especially Tito, have some fanatical fans.

Sure it won't do as much as it would at one point but I suspect it will do allright

It'll do fine. Better than Vargas vs. Mayorga anyway.

I think the question is does RJJ WANT to KO Tito if given the opportunity? In the Hanshaw fight it looked like he just let him off the hook after knocking him down.. He didn't even go after him to try for the KO and it seemed like he felt as if he had done enough to win the decision..

I remember reading on here somewhere that RJJ has this thing with not KO'ing fighters if it isn't necessary or something like that.. i apologize if i'm wrong, but i recall reading it somewhere.

Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No. I do it because its sterile and I like the taste. And I bet RJJ likes the taste of KOing folks again now.

Roy could end up being the one knocked out Tito carried his punch to 160lbs so perhaps he can take it to 168lbs or more

Roy released a statement after the Hanshaw fight stating that he didn't like to KO fighters unless it was absolutley necessary. (perhaps after the McClellan fight?)

But I ask you, what was the point in Ko'ing Montell Griffin when he knew he could comprehensively outbox him?

Well I guess after suffering his first "loss" he felt it was necessary to make a statement and leave no doubt who was the champion.

This might all be hype but it seems to me that Jones is in that mentality again where he feels he has to KO Tito in order for the fans and other fighters to take him siriously.

To be honest man, I think the staement was a farce. Roy has lnocked out 36 guys isn't it? Well it was hardly necessary to KO them all, I think he did it because he could. After the Hanshaw fight he comes out with this....I don't buy it and bet he goes for KO over Tito.
