Yeah man, this is one of those times that I couldnt be happier that I was wrong. I dont want to read too much into this win. It was a great performance. Does it mean he can handle the Chad Dawson-Glen Johnson winner? Probably not, though thats not to say he cant. I wouldnt get too excited about him fighting Green just yet...B-Hop may be the next logical choice and hes been quiet about his plans as of late.

Considering where Jones was,its a good win but you cant read alot into it in the long term.I thought a shot up Lacy would still bull him around and make him work his legs,rough him up and tire him out but sounds like Lacy was the far more shot of the two.You cannot reinvent or rebirth a fighter of Jones age and wear and tear,but you can match him very smart.How much time would you say was spent along the ropes? Did he actually say hes going back to 170 after taking care of green... talking about KlitschkosWas his tounge in cheek because that is fooking crazy talk.He has no time machine and should think about walking away with his head up.Fact that he's aiming for Green says alot
i think jones has still got alot to offer boxing, ok he dominated a flat footed one dimensional lacy, but i think if he chooses his fights carefully(which is what alot of prime cats do today anyway) i think he can write another chapter in the history of roy ones jr, theres no denying hes still got one of the sickest skill sets out there, i think he can beat alot of top fighters out there still, no question
i guess nobody cares at all considering you only got 6 replies in your thread c-lo![]()

personally,the showboating was WAY too much.And i agree with ICB that Lacy's power has gone, although it would help if he could land occasionaly. Disagree with you though ICB when you say he beat lacy as comfortably as calzaghe did. Calzaghe landed far more, and was hit with less, also the context of the fights has to be taken into account

I don't really care about the showboating but I still laugh at all the Roy fans who were so upset about Calzaghe's taunting.
