Green annihilates Jones Jr.

Roy is vanquished in 122 seconds

 

By Ray Wheatley — World of Boxing

 

IBO cruiserweight champion Danny Green (28-3, 25 KOs) scored a major upset when he stopped boxing legend Roy Jones Jr (54-6, 40 KOs) in round one moments ago at the Acer Arena, Homebush, Sydney, NSW, Australia. Green was the aggressor from the opening bell and connected with two solid left hands and a right cross to the temple that dropped Jones. The referee Howard Foster crowned Green at 2:02 to save Jones from further punishment when he was in no condition to defend himself. Green thanked his boxing team for helping him to achieve his greatest ring victory. Jones congratulated Green on his victory. Green’s devastating win likely torpedoed Jones’ planned rematch with Bernard Hopkins, who fights Enrique Ornelas tonight in Philadelphia. Maybe the door is now open for Green to face Hopkins.

Finaly people cant ignore the fact he's shot to bits. Ive been saying for ages he's gone and ive had many an argument over it.

 

Well no Hopkins fight March in Vegas now.. Unless they put it on a PBF/PAC card.. Now that would be a great event.

I hope now people understand that "taking beating when your young is not cool" like Floyd mention a few times, yes the fans love it, yes people might call you Warrior or w/e but on the long run, this happens to you !! a Legend like "Jones" looked like a wasted old man. Correct me if i`m wrong !! but that punch didn`t land 100% right ?

That is the whole point about Jones though Andre, he didn't take beatings when he was young. He rarely got hit in fact. His troubles started when he came back down to Light Heavy after the Ruiz fight, and he was unable to move out the way of Tarvers punches.

 

Big round of applause to the brilliant Aussie fans for the way they behaved when the American anthem was played. I only wish some our f***ing mob would be as well behaved.

I still cant work out how it all went so terribly wrong for Jones in such a short period of time. I mean in the Ruiz fight he only weighed just over 190, and even allowing for the fact that Ruiz is slower than the Queen Mary, jones was jumping about in that fight. Yet 8 months later he was back in the ring with Tarver at 175 and it was like he had concrete boots on. he just couldn't move.
