    If Collins wants to get it out of his system, thats up to him. It's his life.

    I'll watch for sure.

    It isn't as though Collins is talking about world domination.

    He retired many years ago, he was on his last legs then and avoided Joe at the time after being knocked out/down in sparring. Imagine what sort of shape Steve will be in now.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I agree that Collins will not be in great shape and has seen better days. At his age he is probably at greater risk too. I don't epect to see a quality fight and the more I think about it RJJ will most likely annihilate him. When it was first announced I thought Collins might have a chance of a shocking stoppage but he'll probably be fucked after 3 rounds.

    All I'm saying is I'll watch the event and will enjoy Collins gobbing off in the build up but I won't see it as a fight of any significance.

    Who knocked Collins out in sparring just out of interest?

    These guys have had there time and will be remembered as greats especially Roy but I have no intrest in seeing this and ad be very surprised if this gets the financial backing to go ahead.

    Was it really .? Haha ... Apparantley Collins has been 'hitting things' in the gym since Dec.?!?!?
    The article was in Belfast times or Telagraph... I'm using a bberry so.don't think links I post work for some reason ;-)

    17 years is out is beyond most fighters careers these days...well beyond infact...at least jones has been fairly active in recent years (in between getting knocked unconcious) :-)

    Rumour was Collins also had headaches and black outs.
