    I don't think Green is a walkover for Jones, he's a much tougher ask than Sheika or Lacy.

    It will largely dpend on what Danny Green turns up. If its Green the boxer, then Jones will have a field day with him, but if he lets his hands go and fights aggressively like his first fight with Beyer, he could blow Jones out inside 3 rounds.

    Jones looked great tonight, and against Sheika, but they are both completely shot opponents.

    Green is not shot by a long way. It's a risky fight for Jones and he should get props if he wins it.

    I've always liked Danny Green though, he's a tough honest pro and is capable of knocking anybody out.

    A couple of years ago I picked him as the man most likely to be a contender in the light heavyweight division to challenge Dawson, after everyone else ruled Diaconu was a dead cert to be that guy.

    Green then won a world title and annoyingly retired, but now he's back and I think he has a chance to beat Roy Jones, as long as he's aggressive enough.

    That's not saying all that much these days. His power alone will make for an interesting fight, but Jones has the ability to comprehensively outbox him. However, he's got to stop laying on the ropes like he does or it is going to come back to haunt him in a big way.
