By Peter Wells: For the last few weeks Roy Jones Jr has been complaining about the 1st round knockout defeat he suffered to IBO Cruiserweight champion, Danny Green. He has said that Green used excess wrapping tape and bandages around his hands and is requested that Danny should be disqualified. Really this is not that big a issue, but Jones doesn’t like losing unfairly, and who doesn’t. Even if this fight is called a No-Contest, it wouldn’t be good enough for Jones.

Roy believes that Green should be disqualified. This may seem a little harsh but the rules are the rules and if you don’t go by the rules you have to face the penalties. Whether this would have made much difference is unknown, was Green going to destroy Roy anyway or would Jones have won the fight and still had his rematch with Bernard Hopkins set.

Jones didn’t complain straight after the fight; he just took it on the chin, giving credit to Green and his team, but since this has been brought out, he’s been nothing but going on about justice. I don’t know for sure what will happen to Green, so we’ll just have to wait and see.

Adamek-Arreola in talks for April 24th

In recent news, HBO are trying to put together a Heavyweight fight between former Cruiserweight champion of the world and former World Boxing Council heavyweight challenger Chris Arreola for April 24th. Adamek is set to fight Jason Estrada on February 6th, but will be willing to fight Arreola just 11 weeks later. Ever since Adamek moved up to Heavyweight he has wanted a fight with Arreola and a win would put him in line for a title shot later next year. There has been no word from Arreola yet, but most likely will take the offer in California. Despite fighting away from home, Adamek should bring a huge crowd with him as he is a huge hero back in Poland and won’t be alone in America.
