On ya Roy J !!

I watched the fight live on PPV at a mates. Although there wasn't any knockdowns.. he made John Ruiz look like the paper champ he is!

Although he may not stay at Heavyweight.. I'd love to see him unify against a similar cagey guy Chris Byrd.. who beat Holyfield recently.

Both are so similar.. not through much power / might / agressivenes.. but through skill!

Lennox Lewis said he would fight Roy Jones if the money was right, during the fight while he was comentating.

That would be huge...imagine if a former middleweight ended up undisputed heavyweight champ!

Roy Jones Juniors, the best all round boxer ever? I agree with that.
