Roy Jones

Any boxing fans? I was surprised to see Jones get knocked out so fast. Jones was fighting better than Tarver... but that quick hit shook him up real good. Think this could have been Jones' toughest opponent yet?

Roy is real cocky in the ring and I think that may have cost him. He thought he was going to kick that guys butt and in doing so he did not give Tarver any respect. Roy let his guard down and the guy got a haymaker in that landed hard.

Roy is one heck of a nice guy out of the ring. He has money to buy any car he wants and has bought many nice cars but he usually drives around in his beat-up looking Dodge 4 door dually. He also likes his stretch Escalade. Yes, he's got spinners on the stretch.

This is his first professional loss. Well, he had another around 10 years ago by disqualification.

Yeah, I was shocked to hear that he lost.
Must have been an off day.
I am sure there will be a hyped up rematch.

Jones has been virtually unbeatable his entire career!
But he got got in this one. He finally met his match. The way I figure it, every boxer has his/her day. You can't be on your game all the time. Believe you me, Roy will come back pounding with a vengeance. I don't think I would want to face him next...

Well, any type of motion would be welcome as it would imply that he is not navigating in another stratosphere...
