Unfortunately...I really don't believe that was the purpose. Jones is gonna have Evander syndrome, I believe. Have you read the post conference interview? He's ready to go again. Crying shame.

He does. Thing is...there aren't a whole lot of big money options out there...other than Calzaghe & possibley luring Hopkins out for a Super Fight...there's not a lot out there for Roy to bank off of.

No one will really give a shat about the title...but the recognition that could come from a fight with a "revitalized" Jones would be insurmountable.

Not I...hence the reason I want him retired.

You won't.
