I agree that the weight issue will be a problem for RJJ, and if it ever does get made, I expect it to either be at a catchweight or at light heavyweight.

It is however a sign of the decline of RJJ as well, can you ever imagine one fighter telling another during RJJ's prime: "If you don't fight me then I'll just have to go and fight RJJ". I reckon that RJJ's ego could get in the way though....does he really want to be someone's rebound fighter? And also, I'm not convinced he'd be willing to go to Copanhagen to fight.
roy's fight in july is @ 168 so if he were to fight kessler in november he'll have plenty of time settle into the weight...amd if he happens to beat kessler in copanhagen and JC doesn't fight him..then
