[Gazmac81]

thats a decent fight , May be too much for Rose to be honest if Jones Brings his best

Jones is shot.

[Gazmac81]

PS . i thought a fight like that would need to be Pay-perview to put it together though
Or is this a Gift from Eddie for Xmas to all us loyal boxing followers :)

[Boxerbeetle]

Terrible, terrible fight.

[lefty]

Is Mayweather the WBC belt holder still at 154? If so- good luck getting a shot.

Carson Jones is made for Brian.

He has had a tough career but if he comes well prepared he is still young enough to cause Brian a few problems.

Cant see anything other than a comfortable UD albeit a good test.

[DazDiCanio]

Aye, great match up.

Its a good fight. Lets not pretend Brian Rose is Kovalev. I quite fancy Jones to win

[palooka]

It's a cynical match up, if it comes off it will be target practice for Rose. Carson is a brave man and I'll be a shame seeing him get broken down by a bigger man with a strong jab. I was pleased he'd retired, he took some hammer v Brook 2.

[Bard of Boxrec]

How is anyone like this 'target practice' for someone as limited as Rose? Unless I've missed something, how has Jones got so shot between Brook II and now?

[palooka]

Jones got a going over by Brook and retired afterward. Rose is a division bigger, has a good stature and can potshot decent level lightmiddles with his jab. You may see the bout in different terms Riddick, I just see a smaller man, just out of retirement getting a boxing lesson a long way from home.

Done quite well for someone so limited riddick, Central area English, British holder outright WBO intercontinental #1 in GB fought as mandatory challenger in the states although well beaten by a superb champion.. You must be a fornicating superstar son

I would never diss a mandatory challenger. Well said Adam.

Oh yeah, the old 'You have to be a professional boxer to criticise'. Thanks for reminding me about that, I must have forgotten for a moment. Carry on.
