ROY JONES JR. IS BACK AND STIRRING THE POT... by Mike Cassell/Philadelphia Boxing Report
"Right now that my name is back on top, I would be willing to drop in weight and break all the PPV numbers and fight him. Just like I went up to heavyweight, doing something that hasn’t been done in 106 years for the good of the game. Why wouldn’t Oscar be willing to get in the ring with me? He could get inside 160. I’m not asking him to gain 30 lbs like I did... He does not want to get into the ring with me. I took gambles for the history of the game. Why won’t these guys take gambles like I did? These guys call themselves pound for pound this and that, but they aren’t willing to risk nothing..."

BRING ON THE TITANS: FELIX 'TITO' TRINIDAD vs ROY JONES JR... A complete report by Ricky Ray Taylor @ ringside
Round 10 - Roy drops his left and starts landing hard hooks and quick jabs from the waist; another left hook lands from Roy, answered by a Tito left hook and another overhand right followed by hard body shots, before Roy comes back with two hard rights. A lead right lands by Roy, he drops his hands and backs to the ropes - waiting; another 1-2 lands and Tito falls again! Roy tries to finish the show - flurries hard at the bell but Trinidad survives.  

BRING ON THE TITANS UNDERCARD REPORT AND PHOTOS... by Ricky Ray Taylor @ ringside
Round 12 - Golota tries to find enough distance to land solid on an ever clinging Mollo, who looks to hold and survive. Time and time again in this round Mollo reaches to support himself up by grabbing Golota's waist. (Arms! Grab his arms, kid!) -  Golota moves in hard to close the show in the last thirty seconds and the crowd erupts! A hard left hook by Mollo at the bell brings the crowd to its feet as the bell signals the end of the bout. (Lopsided - yet pretty good fight!)
GOLOTA wins a unanimous decision 116-110, 116-112, 118-109.

TITO vs RJJ - A GUILTY PLEASURE... by Chris Ackerman
Almost universally panned by critics, analysts, writers and fans, this Saturday’s fight between two legends has been dismissed as meaningless, pointless, a disgrace, a black eye for the sport and a complete waste of time and money.  Both men are over the hill, shadows of their former selves, looking for one final big pay check and moment in the sun at the expense of the legitimacy of the sport and the loyalty and financial well-being of their fans.  How dare they, right?   
With all the overwhelming negativity being generated over this so-called fiasco, it might be worthwhile to swing by the dollar store, pick up a pair of rose-coloured glasses and take another look. 

THE 'WHERE ARE THEY NOW' SERIES CONTINUES AS FORMER CHAMPIONS RETURN FOR A BIG PAYDAY... by Frank Gonzalez Jr.
So, here’s another Pay-Per-View event that makes you wonder what the criteria is for fights being on PPV? Do we really care if a seven year removed former Welterweight Champion fights a four year removed former Light Heavyweight and “Heavyweight” Champion? This match up is unfair and irrelevant. Curious that its going to be on PPV instead of regular TV.
Would we buy a PPV that featured Lamon Brewster against Jeff Lacy? How about Jose Luis Castillo vs. Johnny Tapia? Hell, why not just go for the gusto and see if we can get Sugar Ray Leonard to fight Riddick Bowe on PPV. Not only are these guys past it (or never had it in Lacy’s case) but they’re not even in the same divisions.

QUOTES FROM WEDNESDAY'S BOXING MEDIA WORKOUTS - JONES JR. GOLOTA, MOLLO & CORLEY
“Guess who’s back, Roy Jones Jr.,” Jones declared.  “Ain’t nobody got the speed to handle me.  Only Floyd Mayweather comes close to me and he’s still 10 miles an hour slower,” Jones quipped.

JANUARY 19: ROY IS GOING TO BE "RAW" AGAIN AND TITO IS "CONFIDENT" AND "FULL OF PASSION"

“We can only imagine how many miles they have run and rounds they have sparred to get ready for this fight.  They have put themselves through very rigorous training camps.  They have great teams and they are ready.  They have promised the fans a great night of boxing.

ROY JONES JR. - THE KING WHO WOULD BE MAN... by Mike Cassell/Philadelphia Boxing Report
It is often said that life is more about the journey than the destination. For Roy Jones Jr., 51-4 (38 KO’s), truer words have never been spoken.  In his youth, and during much of his prime, Roy Jones Jr. was seemingly indestructible. He had a chip firmly placed on his muscular shoulders from day one, when he unfairly lost the gold medal at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Sometimes we forget just how dominant he was in the ring. A few losses can do that. He had the ability to make full grown men, world class fighters and championship caliber athletes, appear clumsy and amateurish. He was undisciplined, wild and completely unconventional. He did everything wrong in the ring. He often left himself open. He punched off balance and from inconceivable angles. His defense was his offense, and in the words of Muhammad Ali, he was a "bad, bad man."

ROY JONES JR. "GOD'S GAME ROOSTER"... by Martin Wade
After learning what life was like on the “D list” Roy Jones has become as accessible and “promotable” as he ever was when he was “the man.” Gone are the frustrating great Gatsby like tendencies, in their place is a man clearly giddy to be relevant again. Roy’s speech on Friday Night Fights, analogous to his patented 16 punch staccatos, ranged from chastising Joe Cortez to shamelessly calling out Joe Calzaghe. For a man so grumpy leading up to his second and third fights with Antonio Tarver, Roy seems determined to soak up what remains of his athletic mortality...
Floyd Mayweather should take note, because flirting with MMA, “sort of” promoting concerts and “playing” rap mogul won’t extend one's fistic prime.

Eight-time world champion Roy Jones Jr. visited the home of five-time world champion Felix "Tito" Trinidad for a press conference at Coliseo Roberto Clemente in San Juan, Puerto Rico this past Thursday.
