Roy aint done nuthin but fight nobodies!! He is good, but now that he is a heavy weight champ, he needs to fight the best!! That is either Tyson or Lewis!! If he ducks those fighters, than he aint shit!! He beat a weak ass heavyweight in which he probably knew he would win!! He still aint faught nobody!! GOT EM!!

If he was to beat Tyson, people would say that Tyson was past his prime and Roy wasn't proving anything by beating Tyson. Thats what they said about Lennox Lewis after he beat Tyson.

its way too early for him to be fighting Lewis or Tyson. Way too early. He'd get his asshole ripped. He should fight another heavyweight, better than Ruiz, but not championship caliber. Someone like Rahman (sp?) or Montell Grifin. now THAT would be a good fight.

Right On Czar, Roy aint got the balls to fight a tyson/lewis or any heal HW fighter not some third rate bum like Ruiz.

It ain't about having balls homie.It's just a fact that Lewis,Tyson,Klitchko,and a few other heavyweights are to big and strong for him.It just is'nt fair for Roy to risk the chance of being severly hurt.He really has NO CHANCE of beating a top tier heavy.He gets some props for even fighting a guy 33 pounds heavier at "weigh in" because the wieght differential is huge.For him to try to fight a top-notch heavy would be ridiculous,and he probably would do major damage to his brain,or at the very worst,even death.

I look at it like this!! He said he wanted to prove a point or make history!! If u gonna go up and be a heavyweight, then fight the best heavyweights!! I mean beatin one heavyweight, and a weak one at that, aint proven shit!! U either a heabyweight or u not!! U cant just fight one guy and then claim u can beat heavyweight fighters!! Until he beats someone good, he wont get that respect he is seeking!! GOT EM!!!

For those shouting from the rafters that Jones is "legit" and to give him his props, c'mon now, Jones said it himself after the fight when asked about his victory over Ruiz. He did it for the historical value.

Translation: His aim never was to become the undisputed HW champ, only to beat one and claim a belt. Thats all. So he picks the weakest of the lot and out boxes him for 12 rounds.

On the historical note, major props to Jones. But really, it was Ruiz ya'll.

When asked about what was next, Jones merely replied that he had no further plans. This was it (see my "Translation" above). When he was pressured about Byrd and others (Tyson, Lewis) he only added that if the situation was right and if it was what the people wanted, he would strongly consider it.

Translation: "Sure, I'll voluteer to get knocked the-FUCK-out by a real HW for the right price."

And why not? How many times have we seen dudes line up for a payday with Tyson? Hell, how many of us here wouldn't jump in the ring with Mike for a cool mil'? Shit, I know I would. The minute he grazes me, I'll just take a dive and close my eyes while thinking of the shade of red of my new Dodge Viper I'm gonna buy.

Seriously though, ice-skating and diving manuvers have difficulty ratings. Though boxing doesn't have "official" ones, we all know the difference between legitimate challenges and cake-walks. And on the scale of 1 to 10, 1 being a broadcasted sparring match and 10 being the Thrilla in Manilla, how would you seriously rate that fight?

Now you know why so many are being greedy with the "props".

What happened to RJ fighting Bernard Hopkins. I wanted to see a rematch. But I guess he isn't going to go to lower weight classes anymore.
