As have I, my friend...
I will attempt to be here but will be out of state... I'll see if I can get on for a half hour or so...
As I've stated in other threads, Roy is an ATG and even 5 years ago would have laid the wood to Joe IMHO...
But this version of Roy is not the same man... Baddi, Henshaw, Tito? He didn't look spectacular in any of them although he did handily beat them. If Jones honestly thinks in his heart of hearts that these guys were a setup for one of the current best P4P fighters of this decade... well, I just hope he hasn't lied to himself. He is clearly not the combonation puncher he once was... He uses right hand leads as a primary weapon and seems to lack the pop he once had... Although his speed is still pretty good, how does he intend on keeping the peddle to the floor against a whirlwind like calzaghe... Jones is not the crafty slickster that Hopkins was/is... I know he has his own bag of tricks but... I just see it being competetive early but Joe pulling away much like he did to Kessler.
I'd love to see Jones win and will be backing him fight night but I'm picking the fighter with my head not my heart...
That being said...
C'MON ROY!!!!![]()
