Mike Jones

I was watching Martinez vs Pavlik and I seen they showed highlights from Mike Jones. I haven't heard anything about him since he lost to Bailey back in 2012 by that nasty KO. So I did some research I guess he fought back in August and he was stopped in the 7th round against Jamie Herrera (12 (7) -2 ) what are your guys thoughts? He was a big welterweight and he moved and boxed well he didn't have a exciting style but he seemed like he could give some welterweights some problems due mostly on he's size. What do you guys think ? You think well ever see him again?

He is working as a high priced sparring partner for Manny going into his fight wth Algieri. No doubt Freddie has him on some other assignments.

Don't forget, good or even half decent guys can make a mint off of the sparring circuit. $100k and up for about 2-3 months worth of work, etc... is still good money.

Mike Jones is a talented fighter who I forgot about. He has all the tools to be a champion. Hope he gets out of the sparring partner mentality and gets his career back on track.

I agree with you but it doesn't look good losing to a guy with only 14 fights. But I think there are still some winnable fights for him like against Berto , Collazo , Guerrero. Like I said hes size is probably the best think he could have at welterweight he could out box Garcia and maybe even Broner all if he gets hes head together.
