Jones,Jr. vs. Harmon
That Jones can freakin' punch! I'll bet today Harmon is glad his corner threw in the towel...'cause he's able to chew his food today and knows his name! Actually, Harmon stuck in there pretty well.

The pre-fight sucked, and I think the dude that lost (Polo) should've won for actually fighting rather than punching and running like Gainer did. What a winning woose!

Was that Roy Jones Jr.? He is a great fighter. Pound for pound probably the best there has been in quite awhile. I waiting to see the "Black Rhino". Read something about this guy a few weeks back I forget his name but it sounds like he has a huge heart. The likes of Holyfield from yesteryear.

Yeah Mr. Rabbit...that was Jones, Jr. That guy can throw a gazillion punches in a split second!

Saw the fight, but found it boring. I wish Jones would get into his fights sooner. I know the other guys are not nearly as talented as him, but he takes so long to warm to the task of knocking the crap out of them.

Polo got at least a split decision loss. He certainly worked harder than the winner.

I'm just hoping someone will clean Prince Nasim's clock soon. This ego circus that he (and others) put on as an entrance is making it hard to watch the fights.

The best commentators are the ESPN2 Friday Night Fight guys. Honest and direct, unlike the feeling I get from Larry Merchant and Jim Lampley on HBO. George Forman seems pretty genuine next to those two shill. Though I see the ESPN guys have gotten some heat lately for noting that some judging has been a bit questionable.
