    I don't know, it looked a bit premature TBH. Jones was on his feet and not taking all that many hard shots, but he wasn't firing back either. It was a little bit Manfredo/Calzaghe for me. Jones was wobbly but trying to buy himself time, but it was playing with fire just hoping the storm would subside and the ref was having none of it.

    A bit lame all in all, the shot that knocked him down seemed more a glancing blow than anything else too.

    Watching it again, I just think the fight is bizarre. Jones fought a downright peculiar fight out there. Good on Green for doing what needed to be done, but Jones fought plain old weird.

    You have to wonder how Green might have faired if Jones was able to work his way through the round because he was throwing an awful lot and trying to put power behind most of them. He would most likely have gassed after half a dozen rounds. But that's just wishful thinking on my part, Jones was stopped in the first and it doesn't matter how much I daydream.

    That punch looked like it caught him high up on the side / back of the head and Jones looked like he was completely gone to me, especially when he went back to the ropes the last time just before the ref stopped it. He looked drunk..... Is Danny Green that big a puncher or was that just right on a perfect spot?

    It looked like it grazed the back of the head to me. Jones Jr's legs did seem weird as he went back to the ropes. He looked very strange getting up too, but I'm not accustomed to seeing Jones get up after being knocked down. He was clinging to the rope in order to maintain some kind of balance.

    Green has a great knockout ratio, but I look at him as someone who has never really beaten anyone of note. He's also spent a lot of his career a bit lighter in weight. Maybe he is a monster, but Jones doesn't really have the best of chins (or back of head's) either.

    Yeah it seemed a bit premature to me. Roy was being Roy and blocking the shots like he normally does. This fight should have gone on a little longer because of the significants of it. So where does BHop go from here, 80/20 to him now? I can't see him being upset in his fight.

    Not so much a glass jaw but a glass 'side of the head' Calzaghe landed flush on his face harder than that and Roy was not in big trouble. Just like his KO losses once you touch the side of his head he drops like a sack of spuds.

    Not nice to see I hope he hangs them up.

    I was only readin this, this morning:

    "Roy Jones is looking at using Wednesday's IBO cruiserweight fight with Danny Green as a springboard for his Las Vegas showdown with Bernard Hopkins in March."



    I was suprised (as most were) at how quick it got stopped. But from when he went down (I actually thought it was a push at first) Green came at him with the intention of finishing it there and then.

    If Jones had have thrown some punches then he would have made it to the bell. But you can't argue with the ref's call. The first rain of punches were getting blocked, but then they started getting through after the body shots and it was only a matter of time before some really big one's got through and hurt him badly.

    Well at least we can finally say Green is an ATG.

    Good on Danny for doing what needed to be done though.

    Jones should be a commentator he's good at that, no need to take anymore punishment really.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    RJJ is shot....It has nothing to do with whether Green is a good puncher or not.......I think Roy is causing himself some long term physical damage with these last few fights (even if he wasnt KO'd).....Roy suffered a couple severe concusions in the Tarver and Johnson fights, I think once you get one you can become prone to getting them again and it takes less of a shot.

    I felt after the beating Roy took at the hands of Glenn Johnson he needed to hang them up because not only did he get KO'd he lost round after round after round.

    Roy just retire already, go train your sons to fight, go be a commentator or a promoter or something, but just don't fight anymore!!!!

    You can't really ruin a legacy but Roy sure hasn't helped his since 2003.

    i agree, the fight didn't have to be stopped yet but still, it's not normal that with such punch Jones went down so to me, it should still be the end of an era.
