Danny Green threw 44 punches from the initial right hand that floored RJJ.He only missed completely with about 4 punches.RJJ Threw one punch during this time and he missed.
How can anyone say that the ref shouldnt have stopped that fight!

Did this really need to be a new thread, mate? You could have added your comment to various other Green - Jones threads.

who the f... are you??!!

Oh from the UK...thats right another jealous pommie!

Hey there Liver Crusher, i was at the fight and initially thought the fight was stopped prematurelly, but after watching it on youtube RJJ was stuned and was in a bad way, although he was wearing alot of the punches on the gloves, itwould only been a matter of time.

Oi Mr Stupid, engage your brain and think, because I live in the UK, doesnt mean I am a 'pommie'.

Where I am originally from does have a connection with Australians though. And not through the UK.

44 unanswered punches !!!! and people still find a way to argus this fight was stopped early. Unfknbelievable. The ref saved RJJ from serious injury. Thats the refs job. GO GREENIE.

says liver crusher...

And still couldnt KO him?

go on you tube and count them Marlin.knob.

I have seen it many many times and if you reckon Green landed 40 unanswered punches(you say he threw 44 and only missed 4) you are kidding yourself.

He hit him enough times to make Roy consider hanging up the mitts.

What more do you need to do?

Marlin and Livercrusher never agree with eachother on anything

Taking nothing away from Green at all it was a VERY solid win! But if he threw 40+ unanswered punches at a hurt RJJ (at RJJ was hurt) then if i was to be hard on Green i would say he should have finished him off with at least a few of those punches dropping him again for the count.

For those who are shouting for a Green VS Adamek fight, Adamek would thrash him! And theres no way hes comming down to Light-Heavyweight or even a catchweight of 82kgs for it ether

Took a while but finally, a post with some common sense and reality to it. N2 Shape

the weight difference is too much for this fight to go ahead. it makes no sense for green.

much more money and exposure fighting b-hop.

I beg to differ, for the majority of Greens career i've had to secretly remain silent on my thoughts of his ability on a world level, the other night gave me my freedom to say what ever the F@#k i want from here on out.

Green is the cleanest/hardest puncher at LT heavy i've seen in my short 30 years of life, OK for now Ademak is a bad choice purely because of the weight difference only, not because Ademak would thrash him. Green before that win was a complete nightmare for anyone that stepped into the ring with him and now with the confidence he'll take out of the last fight, I can only wait to see his next performance and the havoc/Fear he'll cause the Lt heavy division.

The only person i see troubling Green at that weight is Dawson, but Dawson isn't a sure thing either.

Now should he pile on the extra 8 kilos alls i can say is what a fucken punch he'll have, no doubt a bit of speed will be lost but if he lands there ain't no coming back. It would also be acceptable to fight a top 20 cruiser to adjust for the extra kilo's.

Yes Green can punch, and punch hard........however he failed to connect a KO/Stoppage blow to Mundine? Some will say he was weight drained and i'll agree with that to a point, but if he was to pile on the 8kg yes he'll loose some speed, the next question is will that lose in speed reduce his so called power? After all speed and power combined is what is REALLY dangerous, a slower Green at the proper Cruiser-Weight may not actually have that same speed to power ratio he poses at Lt-Heavy. Do you follow? It's not a given green will posess amazing power at Cruiser just because hes 8kgs heavier. I agree a tune-up at the proper weight limit would be understandable. I still thnk Adamek beats Green, maybe even stops him late.

Im a Green fan as well btw, wanted him to beat Choc, always wanted him to do well hes a true grafter and exciting fighter. Just dont think we should all get to carried away with a win over a old RJJ. Having said that it was a great win, Hopkins is the fight to go after but I feel a 44yo Hopkins would beat Green at Light-Heavy.

meh...

punch 'power' should really be measured as energy. Or in this case the transfer of energy from the fist to the head. Basically, kinetic energy (lineal) is measured (unless the velocity is approaching the speed of light) as E=1/2mv^2. Where m=mass, which in the case of a punch can be loosely interpreted as force. And V=velocity or speed. Therefore an increase in speed will have a greater effect than an increase in mass......i think

yes thats what i meant................without all the scientific BS LOL

This is all crap.....Weather Green threw 40+ Punch's or not and couldn't land clearly enough to knock him completely out...

The ref was right to stop it,You cant argue about the ref's decision.

HE WON....He stopped Roy Jones in 122 seconds!!!!!

Weather Jones is past it or not,its still an achievement.Give Green some Credit

I'm from Ireland BTW.

RJJ won a few fights this way, by trapping ppl and the ref stopping the fights unanswered. merqui sosa. tony thornton. they were taking far less punishment than jones took vs green.

this is a bitter irony for jones. so was losing to calzaghe, who kept on showing off and laughing at him. this is also what jones did to a few opponents.

don't feel bad for jones.

How many times do I have to point out that Adamek has moved up to heavyweight? Green was weight drained against Mundine, why do you think he moved up to light heavyweight? He was light heavyweight as an amateur in 2000. He is physically bigger now than he was then. Green does not have to go all the way up to 200, he just does not have to worry about losing weight now and can fight at a weight he is comfortable at.

U dont need to point it out, I know Adamek is at heavyweight but others are suggesting a possible matchup with him.
