    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.

    I've watched it again, I know I shouldn't have. Truly weird, Jones had no idea what to do once he got up. He could have warded off Green with a few counters, even though buzzed, but there was nothing at all. He didn't throw a single punch after getting up, he was doing alright standing there, but not a single thing coming back. It was premature, but you need to let the ref know you are in there by at least throwing something and Jones didn't know how to throw a punch.

    I think it was a premature stoppage but not one that you can argue about to much extent cuz Jones is an old man.

    The problem is he still tries to box like he did 20 years ago. If he wants to box at 40 thats fine but fighters need to evolve. Jones still relies too heavily on reflexes and he hasnt got them anymore . He backed into a corner with his left hand at his waist. Fine if youre young and quick but a middle aged fighter should be more experienced.

    It doesnt make that much of a difference to his legacy because everyone knows he is washed up. All his fights since Ruiz mean nothing cuz he has been past it. Pople dont remember Ali as the guy who got owned by Berbick so I think Jones should be remembered for his greatness he had a decade ago.

    Sad to see, but sadder because I think we all knew it would end up this way, and just hoped it wouldn't. Theres no shame in getting up after being knocked down or coming back after you lost a belt, but you have to think about why your're still out there.

    Roy liked to entertain people, but Boxing is not a sport of entertainment anymore. Its a sport of gimmicks, corrupt commisions, and half talented guys and "work-hards" taking shortcuts and being built up by the media. They do it to make big money and then retire when theyre 28. Then the IRS brings them out of retirement.

    Roy had nothing left to prove, just that he wanted it. After he got it all witha heavyweight belt, he couldn't manufacture that desire... you either feel it or your don't. He should have hung it up after ruiz and let the crack fiends and punching bag journeymen of the world carve their own path or not... In a sport where people die in the ring, deliberately go to the cup to keep from being knocked out, wrap their hands in plaster, and take the padding out of gloves... you can't be in it for sh*ts and giggles...

    The shot that got him was a hard shot that would rock a lot of fighters. In fact all 3 (4 if you count del valle and the half slip) were very similar. Similar area of the head (except for Tarver) and all of them were not particulary skillfull shots. Tarver had his eyes closed, Johnson was just presurring and throwing shots, Green was hooking off wildly. He was guarding his face and most not all of those situations, his opponents weren't target the side of his head, they were just throwing. Unfortunately, the fact remains that he would have blocked those shots in his prime, but that he would have been 10 feet away and taunting those guys when they were hitting nothing but air.
    They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

    Are you for real?? You obviously havent a clue, Jim Watt have you heard of him our main commentater has Haye loseing against Valuev both are commentaters had Froch getting beat, it's a myth mate, them commentaters were a fucking joke, going on as if he just beat a prime RJJ, in reality he was beating up an old man.

    Hopkins - Calzaghe another example they had Calzaghe beat, so where the fuck do you get your " biased opinion from "?? Id love to no .

    I'm not going to disagree with you. The UK has some unbelievably poor commentators too, but those Aussie ones were hilarious. You couldn't make it up! The worst commentators in the world would have to be the Korean ones though, it has to be heard to be believed. It can be quite painful on the ears actually. We all have our anti-Lampley moments and George Foreman was always quite funny, but I actually quite like some of the American commentators. Larry Merchant is my hero.

    I don't think they were that bad, they just knew their audience. It's like listening to any sports cast directed at a specific group, in this case it just happened to be a national one.

    Spot on , it was all aimed at hyping it for the Aussie audience. Let's be honest here, I think you will find that Ricky Hatton has been talked up as a living legend.............or was that just by Ricky himself. Keep in mind that Australian boxing is not exactly the coutries sporting forte so they are just drumming up general national interest. On the back of the Green win I reckon there could be another huge fight here if Green could meet the weight to get it on with Hopkins......or a leaf from Pac's book and have a catch weight

    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.
