        A lot of people seem to think this was rigged

          Unbelievable, he doesnt seem to throw one punch back! The ref could have stopped it even sooner in fairness.

            That does look incredibly dodgy. Does he even get hit on the head before he goes down? Looks to me like a straight shot to the chest and not much else.

              I've watched the "big punch" a few times and watching on YouTube it's difficult to work out just where it landed. Strange. Then he covers up while that Aussie muppet throws a barrage of rubbish, aimless punches and connects properly with approximately none of them?

                I honestly don't see anything that would suggest that Roy Jones Jr got hurt there.

                He just wasn't interested in fighting or even prepared for a fight. If he wasn't interested then he went there to lose so for me it must have been a set-up

                  The only thing that was clearly thrown was the fight, by Jones.

                    He was definitely hurt, look at what happened when the ref split them up, he was all over the place and went against the ropes, he was done.

                    His speed has diminished, his punch resistance is going/gone which leads to being beaten by people he'd embarass in his prime. I dont think it was a fix, he's probably lost out on millions in a Hopkins rematch now as a result.

                      Yeah fixed, RJJ puts his right hand up as a signal, the guy taps it a couple of times so they both know this is the moment he go's down, maybe, no ?, ok.

                        Did you watch the fight on tv mate? As Shaggy says it's hard to tell where the punch prior to the knockdown landed on youtube. Did it catch the chin?

                          I only saw it on a stream. People who saw it on TV say it was bang on the side of his skull in which case you can see why he was ****ed!

                            Well if that's the case then fair enough. Makes a lot more sense than if it'd landed on his chest.

                              His legs looked shaky to me anyway after he got up, looking at him on the canvas too and after he got to his feet, he looked shaken, don't think he was putting it on.
