    Exactly.... RJJ is on the RJJ world tour. While RJJ isn't winning like B-Hop is at this stage of his career, he certainly knows more in-ring tricks than B-Hop does and tries more than B-Hop does.

    A lot of people turn in to see RJJ just to see his wizardry. He certainly does seem jealous of B-Hop and Tarver, to a smaller extent. lololol....
    Have to disagree with you on RJJ having more tricks than Hop. No one has more tricks than Hop, he gets by a ekes out wins at 50 mostly on tricks n being clever.
    If I've said it once, I'll say it again - If Roy Jones was Superman then Bernard Hopkins is Batman; he has tricks and gadgets in every pocket.

    What if Roy fought Chris Byrd at HW, and unified the WBA and WBO titles? Would he go down as the GOAT?

    He would only be GOAT if he beat Lennoix Lewis.

    It would have been interesting if he fought Tyson or even Toney at heavyweight.

    Sorry, no one answered my question, is this fight going to be on TV. I'm desperate to see a match. I guess I'll have to watch some older fights on YouTube and on demand this weekend.

    Great body shot KO by Roy. He may be damn near 50 but he's still a former p4p king and ATG, and when he saw he hurt the guy with his first body shot he knew it was going to be a short night.

    The more we cheer for these victories as if they were a sign of RJJ Jr. turning back the clock, the more misguided he gets and thinks he's ok. He should be made to watch this video every morning, minus the first 1:15.

    As long as he's not in there with world class guys, I don't mind it that much. If he can go over and put a little exhibition on in Europe against a guy who is just happy to be in there with him, and make an easy paycheque, that's cool.

    As long as he's in there with the Courtney Fry and Aniyo's of the world, he should be ok.

    Will there be another Roy Jones?

    Probably not.

    Stopped some Egyptian guy with a body shot!

    Body shot was superb.

    Roy jones still has that beautiful style and beautiful handspeed.

    Love roy jones.

    Let him enjoy what he likes to do..

    He knows deep inside the truth but its still nice to see his original and rare style.
