    Did you see Jones vs. Hopkins II ? It was absolutely dreadful.

    The one word I could think of to describe a Jones vs. Toney match now would be PITIFUL.

    That said, if they need the money that bad then they should fight one another. Probably a very good payday for each of them compared to what else is out there.

    I'm with you, I'd have absolutely no interest in seeing it

    It wouldnt be a fight, but a show. Both are C class fighters now, and this would most likely be a PPV.

    Lets see Holmes vs Foreman rather than this!

    I guess it COULD happen. The question is: why

    Toney was clearly injured and it seems to have been worse than many thought it might be too. Toney isn't quite done yet and I'm willing to give Toney a final throw of the dice.

    He will knock out Jones Jr.

    He probably will, but who will care? Everyone's knocking out Jones these days...

    I want to see Toney come back and make a statement, he totally fucked his knee up. I was saying as much when it happened, but it seems to be being swept under the rug. Since when does James Toney fall down EVERY TIME he throws a right? There was clearly a reason for it all. Even being semi shot can't make you stumble non-stop.

    Toney has no right to call for a Lebedev rematch, but I want to see him back and soon. Stay away from BK dammit. There is time for that after retirement.

    Good question. I think it would resemble a 40 year old Ali versus a 50 year old Jimmy Young. Two guys with nothing at all left, moving in slow motion and neither able to knock the other out.

    If it was put on ESPN then I would watch it. The Uncivil War II. It could happen because Roy must be really broke and needs another payday no matter how bad his skills have eroded.

    Yikes... Well if either of them ever partake in a notable fight again it may as well be against each other I guess. I think Roy Jones could actually win kind of easily again as well, Toney may even make him look like he has something to offer.
