Crazy....I had no clue he was gonna fight over there. Wonder if he met up with my boy Emanuel Augustus who has moved to Aussieland to train and fight over there.
Still don't get why Silva was/is so intent on fighting Roy Jones? Maybe cause Jones doesn't hate MMA, or because he has his own promo company and has put together a handful of shows (usually out of Florida)
Sure, Silva wants to box, but why not a current boxer who is near the top. I was really surprised when he beat Jeff Lacy but Lacy has been on a downfall since losing to Jermain Taylor. Jones hasn't been right since his 3 losses in a row to Tarver, Glen Johnson and Tarver again.
Roy Jones hasn't been able to take a punch like he used to. I am sure he will bounce back and fight, Danny Green isn't a can (even though competition isn't the same down under) He had a war with Anthony Mundine who is also not a push over....just not well known at all to anyone who doesn't follow international boxing.
