[skel1983]

I only just realised the ref in the Jones/Green fight was Howard Foster, top bloke Howard use to talk to him alot on Facebook.

WTF was he doing in Oz?? Must of been paid well.

Haha, typical American grasp of geography!

I kind of agree with Hopkins about the Jones Jr fight. I think it was a bit premature, but Jones just wouldn't throw anything. A bit frustrating really.

[Gandalf]

Hopkins was the same old Hopkins. He started very slowly, but had his opponent throwing less and gradually landed more and more. He actually looked decent down the stretch, but he looked bigger than his opponent at all times. It was like a puffed up sparring session with Hopkins in control.

I'll challenge you to a geography quiz anyday.

I would have stopped the fight too. RJJ looked like a saw horse position after the knockdown. A puncher like Green unloading with nothing coming back from Roy, what's the point? He just collapsed from a glancing blow. The Hopkins of tonight, stops the Jones of tonight within 4 rounds.

You might well know your geography, but I would take on Hopkins in a flash! His only chance would be to flail at me headfirst while I ponder my answer.

I've no complaints with any of your points about the Jones fight really, it was a sorry affair.
