well if he refocuses himself and become 3/4ths of the Jones he once was or even 1/2 the Jones he once was, he will still do good.

But as for me, I simply think that the streak of fights of 2 tarvers and 1 Glencoffee was the worse streak anyone could have gone on. After being KOED by Tarver, Jones had to live through the tragedy of a hurricane wrecking his house. He wasn't mentally focused at all for his upcoming fight, and he actually thought Coffee would have been a walk over. He then got KOED in that fight. Now with one fight remaining on his contract HBO forces him to rematch with Tarver with no interim fight in between. The most logical move at this point would be for a fighter to take a year and a half off. Not Jones, he got forced by HBO to rematch Tarver after suffering 2 consecutive KOES. As a result he was nearly KOED again. In addition he had to adjust to his father being in his corner after a very long absence.

That's what you call a disastrous streak. But I believe now, Jones has all the baggage and distractions cleared out of the way.

I think Jones is going to put on an exemplary performance.
