Roy jones jr.

[GonzoStyle]

Jones today signed a document outlining basically under what terms he would fight WBA heavyweight champion, John Ruiz. This would be the first time in decades that the light heavy champion faced a heavyweight "title holder", since Lewis is the world wide recognized heavyweight champ. But still fighting a heavyweight is a feat upon itself. I think it is a huge mistake on jones part, he will lose. No matter how bad a heavyweight is, they are still heavyweights. In boxing every few pounds count. In our eyes someone fighting at 147 who has to face a 154 pounder doesn't seem like a big deal, but it is huge. Jones fights at 175, probably walks around between 180-185. Ruiz is a natural 220-230 pound fighter. Ruiz would stand to make 5 million guaranteed, jones would make 7 million.
