Something is "screwy" about this fight....

After watching the replay of the Jones-Tarver fight last night, I have changed my mind on a few things.

1. It was a LUCKY punch! Tarver threw that shot with his eyes closed, and then just barely opened them as the punch landed. You will never convince me otherwise. Tarver had no idea where or even IF that shot was gonna land.

2. Something just isn't right. The way the odds went significantly down like that just before the fight. Also, Jones got up before the 10 count, and Nady didn't even give him a chance, he immediately stopped the fight. One would think that given Roy Jones' reputation, he should have gotten the benefit of the doubt.

3. It seemed almost "robotic" and "programmed" didn't it? First they announced it as a KO, saying Jones did NOT beat the 10 count (according to Michael Buffer), then they had to reverse themselves and call it a TKO.


I dont like the whole "conspiracy theory" bull****... but something just isn't right about this fight.

If I am wrong, and everything is legit, then we have a different story. It is the same story that took shape during Rocky III and got the title: "Eye of the Tiger". Jones hasn't had the "eye of the tiger" for years... Tarver has. However, if the story plays out correctly, Jones will use this loss as a way to get it back... and when he does, watch the **** out!!!!
