I'm telling you guys Roy is going to really feel having to make 170. At 35, I actually think 170 will be a good weight for Tito.
If this fight lands at the Garden, the atmosphere will be crazy....I can't remember the last time Roy fought in front of a hostile...
It goes without saying of course that a Tito victory would also result in other possible significant events as well (Hops II, Taylor, Calzaghe,...
I think it would because a win would make Roy a hot(tter) commodity, and let's face it, fighters fight for money (not glory and belts). Roy...
Tito can't fight at 154/160 any longer so you must be talking about 168-175. Do you think Tito matches up better with the likes of Calzaghe,...
I disagree.....HBO PPV will most likely carry fight and if Roy wins, he'll have momentum to set up fights with other HBO hacks (Hops II or...
The buzz around this fight (it's only been one day) is incredible......messageboards are lighting up. I think this fight will do at least...
Roy having to make "170" worries me......
I'm skeptical of report as well......I disagree however on significance of fight...I'd love to see it.
If it happens, it will be a HUGE fight. It'll be interesting to see what proposed weight they'll fight at. I can't see Roy going below 175.
At least according to: http://sports.yahoo.com/box;_ylt=Am2EFZ3LE40Sjk54TYAsB_w5nYcB
No doubt Roy's relationship with the media is turbulant to say the least. He doesn't trust many of them out there (except Greg Leon & few...
Same thing applies to Roy....all those who have met and conversed with him claim he's one of the nicest good guys in the sport.
Glen's good guy image is b.s. Look at most of his interviews and you'll notice that he's always spouting off. Classless is glen's team...
Roy is doing the right thing by (apparently) wanting to stay busy....his timing was off at beginning of his last fight but was zoning in as the...
And WRT Hanshaw, Roy looked very good. He fought a very cagey fight....as noted by previous poster he scored alot on the inside and worn a very...
Not sure what people are talking about.....Roy's physique looked great at the Hanshaw weighin and looked even fuller (throughout shoulders and...
Jones to waste no time returning to ring George W. Moore III gmoore@pnj.com Nothing's official yet, but it seems the Gulf Coast might...
I'll say it again, the post-Ruiz Roy that Tarver fought 3 times had no legs.....huge difference when analyzing this matchup circa 2002 or before.
I'm just curious to see what weight range Tito will settle on: 154-160 (Floyd, Oscar) 168-175(Taylor, Jones, Hopkins)
I think Roy pre-ruiz would have always comfortably handled Antonio. I think Tarver's size, height and reach would still keep Roy alert, but...
How is Tito looking lately (have you seen him). Just wondering how much weight he has to shed.
Roy didn't see it too which any fighter will tell you magnifies the impact......it was a wallup of a punch though that would've dropped a mule.
Roy can't make 168 any longer, but something tells me that Tito may not be able to as well.....if this fight goes down it'll have to happen at 175.
How do you see a fight between RJ and Tito unfolding today in all seriousness.
Like I said.
And yet you dog an elite athlete like Roy Jones?
I agree Bernard has more pull at this point (GBP - HBO), but history shows that Roy stands firm on his principle. I still wish this fight...
I could see this fight happening....I can't see Tito fighting below 168 at this point.
I don't think Bernard's the bigger star.....Roy is still better known and loved by the public....he's just on the outs with HBO while Hops is...
