Why doesn't he retire for good? Surely the Danny Green pasting should have taught him that.

Your reply just made me laugh out loud. :TU: If you was to ask him he'd probably get his first k.o for along time. How comes you get to interview Roy Jones?

I like to know how he rates Calzaghe in retrospect. We know both fighters weren't at their best, but that Jones had declined more than Calzaghe. I'd like to know how well matched they would have been 5-10 years before and what the outcome would have been :TU:

wow good luck! I had a few questions please

Q1) What does Roy think of and how does he think he would fare against the fab four (duran,SRL, Hearns,Hagler)

Q2) Well he get revenge on Danny Green?

Q3) Did he ever have to do specific exercises for his speed or is it god given as i suspect. At age 41 how does he continue to have lightning fast hands perhaps the quickest in the business above 154.

why didnt he take the sport as serious when he was at the top. i.e participating in basketball matches for that semi pro side.& was it because he was becoming bored of winning & achieving .


& does he regret bulking up & dropping his body back down depleting all his athletism & does he carry on for redemption???

Who does he think will win between Bernard Hopkins and Jean Pascal, and by what method?

Q1) Hows the hand?

Q2) What drives you to continue to fight at the age of 41? Surely you have nothing left to achieve.

Q3) After what fight did you, in your opinion, start to decline from being at the top? (subtle)
(When did you start to realize you were shot?)

Q4) Green 2? I think there is interest in this.

Good luck in understanding him. He has a strange accent.

Ask him what he classed as his best win.

Who does he rate as the best pound for pound fighter of the last decade.

He's the one from Florida (pretty much - less Washington State - the diagonal opposite of the entire country to Oregon). Oh and it's 'steers' as in the bovine sort not 'sneers'. :OhYes:

I would ask him to give a comprehensive overview of his training regime when he was at the top of his game.

I would also ask him who he thought the all time greatest p4p fighter was.

and finally...

What is his take on a prime Michaelczewski and does he have any regrets about that fight not occuring?
I recall Clinton Woods goin over there around 2000 (ish), rsf 6 I believe, and the fight taking place in Oregon and I thought they said it was Jones' home state....if that ain't the case then my mistake. Winky Wright's from Florida too.....and Mickey Mouse :TU:

Be a shocker if RJJ can understand a Geordie!

Ask him who he thinks the 'greatest' is.

Ward's not as fast as Dirrell or Jones Jr. I'm not sure who is faster between Dirrel and Jones, though. Probably Dirrell at this stage, but I haven't compared any footage.
