Roy Jones Jr. Eager to Fight Wladimir Klitschko
Once the world best boxer, Roy Jones Jr. of the United States called out Ukrainian Wladimir Klitschko, the heavyweight king of IBF.
Roy Jones came up with that bold statement at night from July 14 to 15, once he defeated compatriot Anthony Hanshaw, fightnews.com reported.
In addition to Klitschko, Jones, 38, is ready for a bout with Glen Johnson and Antonio Tarver, from whom he suffered three defeats overall, and with Felix Trinidad and Jermain Taylor.
Of interest is that Klitshko is the only heavyweight of all boxers whom Jones is eager to challenge.
The bout of Roy Jones and Anthony Hanshaw was for the IBC light heavyweight title. It was the 12-round fight, though Hanshaw endured the knockdown in round 11. As a result, Jones prevailed by 118-109 117-110 and 114-113.
