Review: 2014-07-26, it seemed more like an ‘exhibition’ than a real fight…we can’t give more than two stars to Roy Jones Jr vs Courtney Fry. The 45 years old and former world champion in four different weight classes Roy Jones Jr entered this fight with a professional boxing record of 57-8-0 (40 knockouts) and he is ranked as the No.22 cruiserweight in the world, he fought just once last year beating Zine Eddine Benmakhlouf (=Jones Jr vs Benmakhlouf).
His opponent, Courtney Fry, has an official record of 18-5-0 (6 knockouts) and he comes off two consecutive defeats: against Enzo Maccarinelli and Nathan King. Roy Jones vs Fry is valid for the WBU cruiserweight title. Watch the video and rate this fight!

I love Roy Jones, one of the best boxers ever, but i hope he stop fighting guys like Fry or Benmakhlouf….these are not serious bouts. It’s time to retire
