    RJJ was saying he's willing to fight again, if the money and situation is right. So he's not retire yet. A DAMN SHAME!!!!

    I really hope he never fights again. Surely he can feel that he's not capable of doing the things he was 10 years ago?? It's stupid that we're even talking about him fighting 10 years after his prime never mind the fact he is actually doing it.

    He should have gone after either the Calzaghe or Hopkins fight. The Calzaghe one would have been a Roy goes out on his shield kind of thing & he walks away. Hopkins was such a bad fight, he could have done the I just don't have it anymore thing (in fact at the time we wanted them to BOTH walk away, probably a bit wrong there). I mean he's lost his last 3 fights. It's the danger that he fucks up his gig with HBO through this that worries me.

    IMO the perfect moment for Jones to walk away was after the Lacy fight, he put on a spectacular performance and showed signs of what he once was, and it was in his hometown, perfect ending

    The thing that sticks most and shocked me to hear was him saying something along the lines of 'to be my age and to be in the 10th round against a top ranked cruiserweight'...yadda yadda

    Nothing like perspective I've come to two conclusions he's either seriously damaged and delusional or he is mentally %100 sharp as a tack but physically shot and a enormous egomaniac. He still calls a fight and handles a camera with the best. If he goes on I just don't feel for him at all. He knows what he's doing and he is lying to his legacy and his fans who appear to give a shit about him more then he does himself.

    yea i agree, but when he's commentating he's usually more on spot than not, just wish he'd take off the gloves and stick to holding the mic and staying with the HBO crew

    Roy Jones keeps fighting because he's a "big name" and he can still fleece the casual boxing fan out of PPV money for his shitty performances. For Roy, it's all about "dat money", because he hasn't been worth a fuck since he was knocked out by Tarver & Johnson.

    BTW, I usually mute the sound when Jones is calling a fight for HBO, I don't wanna hear the garbage that comes out of this clowns mouth.

    that's not true his fights against Trinidad and Lacey were plenty entertaining and good showings (although obviously nowhere near his prime and not against world level opposition), and don't know what you're running on about Jones is one of the best commentators out there today, i'd rather hear Jones and Tarver give straight commentary than listen to Lewis spew on about himself and how he would perform if he was the one fighting
