Roy Jones Jr. Advises Terence Crawford to Fight Ilia Topuria Next

Roy Jones Jr. thinks boxing champ Terence Crawford should either fight Ilia Topuria or retire.

Crawford reached the peak of his stardom last month by beating the sport’s biggest star, Canelo Alvarez, via unanimous decision on Netflix. Jones believes Crawford should learn a lesson from his career and hang up his gloves now. Jones cited his trilogy loss against Antonio Tarver as a prime example of this logic. While Jones earned a controversial split decision against Tarver in their first meeting, he was brutally knocked out in the rematch and dropped a decision in the rubber match.
