Roy Jones Jr: Bolonti Was Faking, It Was Disgusting!
By Luke Furman
Former four division world champion Roy Jones Jr. was very upset with the final outcome of Saturday fight between Jean Pascal*and Roberto Bolonti at the Bell Centre in Montreal, Canada.
The fight was set as a tuneup for Pascal's upcoming fight with WBA/IBF/WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev on March 14th.
In the second round, Pascal dropped Bolonti with a jab and then went after him. When they were in a clinch, the referee was trying to break them apart when Pascal hit Bolonti with what appeared to be*a minor shot to the the head and the*Argentine boxer went down like a sack of potatoes.
Bolonti was down, motionless and oxygen had to be administered. He was taken away on a stretcher.
Jones, who trained Pascal for the fight, felt Bolonti was attempting to get his boxer disqualified. *Instead the ending was ruled a no-contest.
“When you hit him for real and he really goes down, there’s a difference. When Jean hit him with the jab, he got up right away because he was embarrassed that he got knocked down from a jab. When he started faking, there was no chance he was coming back. This punch wasn’t as hard as the jab, but there was no chance he was getting up. It’s disgusting,” Jones said.
Pascal is not convinced with Bolonti's injury, but hopes the boxer is fine.
“It’s an unfortunate incident. It’s too bad because I wanted to put on a good show. I was doing well the first two rounds. It happened really fast, but he hit me once behind the head and again on the ear and I didn’t hear the ref say break. I saw an opening and I hit him. If he’s really hurt, I wish him a full recovery,” Pascal said. “I don’t know what to say. I’m not a dirty fighter. I’ve never done that in my life.”
