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.

[GAME]

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 day.

[TheMacMagician]

sad day.

True point...... Not good to see greats get a beat down......

I know Michael Brodie is no all time great, but i loved watching him years ago, and to see him get whooped last week by someone he would have taken care of in his day was sad too...

[purtyboy]

Sad to say Roy should had hang them up a long time ago..


here is a great quality full fight video

What u talking about?

U never heard of the Irish legend Kevin McBride.

There point is proven

[El Kabong]

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.

Coming from the country who possibly has the most biased commentators in world sport....

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.

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 .

[Southside Slugger]

Im watchng Versus right now .They are going to show the fight at 8:00 PM EST. I saw a pop up on the screen that said "Roy Jones VS Danny Green live tonight on Versus" .LOL I should bet someone that dosen know better that Roy gets Koed in the first.

Im a big Roy fan and I will refuse to watch him fight anymore .Who would want to see him go on .If B-hop still fights him I will have no respect or him either.

[superheavyrhun]

That was just horrible to watch, I think the stoppage wasn't at all premature, if you're not throwing back you've got to expect the ref to step in and stop the punishment.

Green did the business, and whilst I don't think he's anywhere near being a legend, he got the win, and really put the foot down after flooring Jones Jr.

When watching it, one of my thoughts was wouldn't it be horrible refereeing that fight, where one of the all-time greatest was getting pummelled, and you had to step in and save him so early in the fight. Hope Roy calls it a day now, as y'all have mentioned, there's plenty of other jobs out there for him, though I doubt he's skint after last night's work.

[josef4334]

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 know man. i agree. johnson hit him on the same spot too. i guess thats his achilles heel huh? just like when you punch a sharks snout the damn fish flips over and goes limp for a few.

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.
