Rematch after 17 years....Roy Jones jr. vs Bernard Hopkins [April 17th]

[MOREBASS]

Yeah, I read that. Hella sad. I doubt Jones is broke, but its just really sad to see him this far gone. He was one of my favorites to watch growing up.


I doubt they made 2 million at the gate still. I talked to people who were there and they said that they were literally giving tickets away for free on fight night, just to fill the arena.

I didn't go through the thread and I probably won't because the fight was terrible but ROCKY JUAREZ LOST TO JASON LITZAU AHAHAHAHAAH

.. and Sillakh looked stupid impressive.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

and yet somehow I'm sure Rocky will get another title shot in his next fight

I really can't see it. This is how unjust title chances end. Before they could always argue about the guys he lost being fantastic, except for when Soto bitch beat him and not many people knew who Soto was.

I think if anything Litzau will probably get a crack at Guerrero's vacated title against someone who's gonna spark him.

I'll watch any boxing. I will watch Wednesday night Telemundo 115 pound sponsored by Tecate boxing. You knows it's really bad when I stream it for free online, then minimize that window and listen to the commentary while I do other things.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

just checked the IBF's current rankings at 130 and the #1 and #2 are:
Mzonke Fana
Cassius Baloyi

They should just give the title back to Guerrero lol

As a die hard Hopkins fan I'm riding the hopkins bandwagon till the damn wheels fall off, fuck it! Crash & burn!

 

[naner12]

Nothing wrong with watching 115lbers. This fight was for an NABF title which is the IBF's North American title I doubt they updated their rankings immediately but there's almost no doubt in my mind they're gonna shoot Litzau up there with this win.

 

[T-Rip]

Hopkins would pick David Haye apart, I hope it happens.

 

[2-0-Sixx]

^^Did you see how many rabbit punches haye landed on ruiz? A couple of his legit knockdowns were straight up flagrant rabbit shots. lmao. Fuck, if Bhop couldn't handle a rabbit punch from roy jones I dunno what would happen against haye!

 

[T-Rip]

lol, maybe he will show more respect with Hopkins but it would be a different fight cuz Haye is an easier target to hit.

It's time for both of these fighters to ride off into the sunset. Neither one of them have anything left to prove. Unfortunately pride, money and egos could cause both of them to fight on until they both start showing signs of long term damage or get carried out of the ring on a stretcher. I don't wish any unnecessary punishment on either of them. They are both Legends and in their primes they were the top dogs until father time caught up with them.
