    It's been a very ending for possibly the greatest boxing talent of all time. To think that the back-to-back KO losses were 11 years ago... and to think that he was talking about retiring 12 or 13 years ago... and here he is still plugging away.

    There seem to be very few happy endings in boxing.

    Its a bit like watching a world series pitching ace grow older and relive the glory days by blowing out single A baseball teams who never made the big leagues. Having 3 set ups already on deck reminds me of Foreman's Toranto Five.

    I think he's fighting for the money rather than for fun or to cement his legacy. All pro fights though, so maybe he's got a certain amount of wins he wants to get to

    The word from the promotors of the Liverpool show is that Jones has pulled out because he's secured a World title shot.

    Who can Roy beat at world level?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I don't think he can. Unless its some half measure minor trinket. There is Drozd in Russia...where Roy just got his visa and "citizenship"
