As soon as Roy Jones was KOed by the “closed eye” left hook of Antonio Tarver his career was over. Yes he kept fighting, but my contention has always been that when you fight at such a high level like Roy Jones Jr two things can happened when you get knocked out or severely beaten.
A- You comeback stronger.
or
B- You are never the same.
Guys like Roy Jones and to a lesser extent Jermain Taylor are never the same after that first big KO. So I wasn’t shocked when Jones was KO but not even that hard of a punch by Danny Green. He has been a shot fighter for years.
Time to hang em up Roy, but you seriously get hurt.
