HI, GENTLEMEN.
BOTH OF YOU ARE PROLVESALS.
I EXPECT YOU TO PAY ATTENTION 
TO M COMMANDS OUT HERE.
LET'S HAVE A GOOD FIGHT.
SHAKE HANDS AND COME OUT  
BOXING.
JIM: EIGHT YEARS AGO, REGGIE  
JOHNSON WAS BRIEFLY BROUGHT TO  
PENSACOLA, FLORIDA, AND TRAINED 
IN THE G FOR A PERIOD OF  
TIME, ABOUT SIX OR EIGHT WEEKS, 
WITH ROY JONES' DAD, ROY JONES

SR., WHO WAS STILL TRAINING HIS 
SON AT THAT TIME.
ROY JONES SR. ASKED ROY TO GET  
IN THE RING AND SPAR WITH 
REGGIE JOHNSON.
AND ROY AFTER A BRIEF PERIOD OF 
TIME DOING SO STEPPED AWAY AND  
SAID THIS IS NONSENSE.
IF I'M GOING TO BE MEASURED, I  
SHOULDN'T BE MEASURED AGAINST A 
GUY SOMEDAY I AM GOING TO FIGHT 
FOR A TITLE.
JONES WAS RIGHT.
HE KNEW THEIR PATHS WOULD 
EVENTUALLY CROSS.
GEORGE: REGGIE HAS TO MAKE SURE 
HE JUMPS ON ROY A STAYS AHEAD 
IN POINTS.
YOU'RE THE CHALLENGER.
YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE MOTIVATED 
TO GET THIS TITLE.
ROY JONES' JOB IS TO MAKE SURE  
THIS GUY DOESN'T GET TOO MUCH 
COURAGE.
ONCE HE LANDS ONE SHOT AT A 
TIME HE'S GOING TO START DOING  
WELL.
JIM: DERRICK GAINER SAID  
YESTERDAY, I WANT HIM TO BOX.
THIS SHOULD BE AN EASY FIGHT.
BUT ROY JONES SAID TO US, DON'T 
NECESSARILY COUNT ON IT.

I MIGHT GO AHEAD AND DECIDE TO  
CONFRONT HIM MAN-TO-MAN IN THE  
FIRST ROUND BECAUSE HE MIGHT  
WANT IT THAT WAY.
GEORGE: IT'S ALREADY STARTING 
TO GO REGGIE'S WAY.
REGGIE GETS IN TWO OR THREE.
JIM: REGGIE GETTING IN LITTLE 
SHOTS TO THE BODY, AS WE SAW IN 
THE LAST CLIP.
ONE MINUTE, HARD RIGHT HAND BY  
ROY JONES!
AND JOHNSON GOES DOWN.
GEORGE: BUT IT'S A LONG NIGHT.
JIM: ANOTHER RIGHT HAND LEAD  
LANDS ON JOHNSON.
AND JOHNSON TRYING TO FIGHT 
BACK.
APPARENTLY WANTING TO 
COMMUNICATE RIGHT AWAY TO JONES 
THAT WAS A FLESH KNOCKDOWN, YOU 
DIDN'T HURT ME THAT BADLY.
GEORGE: THAT PART HURT.
THIS IS ALL NEW TO REGGIE NOW.
HE'S INTO ANOTHER CATEGORY.
JIM: JONES TOLD US THAT HE FELT 
THE STRAIGHT RIGHT HAND WOULD 
BE THE DOMINANT PUNCH IN HIS  

English: 
ARSENAL.
ALREADY THE RETURNS ARE IN.
GEORGE: ONE THING HE WANTS TO 
DO IN REGGIE'S CORNER, THEY 
WANT TO LET HIM KNOW WHERE  
JONES' POWER RANGE IS.
JIM: TWO WEEKS AGO, OSCAR DE LA 
HOYA KNOCKED HIS OPPONENT DOWN  
IN THE FIRST ROUND.
IT LOOKED FOR A MOMENT AS IF IT 
WOULD BE AN EASY FIGHT.
10 ROUNDS LATER, DE LA HOYA WAS 
STILL FIGHTING BEFORE HE EARNED 
HIS WIN.
GEORGE: NOW, REGGIE IS GOING TO 
HAVE TO SET HIS DEFENSE, FIND 
OUT WHERE THE SHOT IS AND PUT 
HIS HAND RIGHT THERE IN THAT  
POSITION.
JIM: AND A CUT ABOVE THE RIGHT  
EYE OF REGGIE JOHNSON.
A LITTLE CUT JUST IN THE CORNER 
OF THE RIGHT EYE.
HE WAS CUT IN THE 12TH ROUND OF 
A FIGHT BACK IN FEBRUARY.

NOW FOUR MONTHS LATER, THE CUT  
EMERGES IN THE SAME PLACE.
JIM: REGGIE IS STICKING WITH  
THE SAME STRATEGY, GOING FOUR 
OR FIVE SHOTS.
WITH ROY JONES, YOU DON'T WANT  
HIM THROWING SHOTS.
JIM: GREAT RIGHT HAND LANDS FOR 
REGGIE JOHNSON.
OBVIOUSLY, HIS PLAN WAS TO GO 
TO THE BODY.
THERE'S A KNOCKDOWN, THERE'S  
BLOOD, THERE'S A HIGHLY 
ENERGETIC ROY JONES, THERE'S A  
WILDLY ENTHUSIASTIC CROWD.
AND ALREADY REGGIE JOHNSON IS 
IN AN UPHILL FIGHT.
>> GET THAT BLOOD OFF HIM, MAN.
GET THAT BLOOD OFF HIM.
>> YOU'RE GIVING HIM TOO MUCH 
TIME TO WORK.
HE CAN'T HURT YOU IF YOU'RE 
THAT CLOSE TO HIM.
JIM: LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE 
KNOCKDOWN FROM THREE ANGLES.
YOU LOOK AT THE COPY BOX  
NUMBER SWING ROY JONES 
WORKING ECONOMICALLY.

English: 
GEORGE: RIGHT OVER THE TOP OF 
THE RIGHT EYE.
YOU KNOW, IF A GUY IS THROWING  
ONE SHOT -- HERE WE GO AGAIN.
YOU DON'T EVEN THINK IT HURTS 
WHEN YOU PUNCH WITH THAT KIND 
OF POWER.
IT HAPPENS SO QUICKLY.
IT TAKES A MOMENT FOR YOUR LEGS 
TO TELL YOU HEY, YOU'RE DOWN.
JIM: SO THE KNOCKDOWN AND CUT 
CAME FROM THE SAME PUNCH?
GEORGE: I BELIEVE IT'S THE SAME 
AREA.
JIM: LOOKED THAT WAY.
ALL OF ROY JONES 12 PUNCH 
CONNECTS IN THE FIRST ROUND 
WERE POWER SHOTS.
I DON'T THINK HE'LL THROW TOO 
MANY JABS AGAINST A SOUTHPAW.
AND YOU HEARD DON TURNER TELL 
REGGIE JOHNSON GET INSIDE AND 
DON'T GIVE HIM ANY TIME TO  
WORK.
I THINK REGGIE JOHNSON IS 
LISTENING.
GEORGE: AND LAND AS MANY  
PUNCHES AS YOU CAN SO THAT YOU  
CAN MAKE ROY JONES STOP 
FOLLOWING YOU AROUND LANDING  
ONE SHOT AT A TIME.
JIM: LOOKING AT JONES IN HIT

English: 
AND A COUPLE OTHERS, LOU DUVALL 
IN PARTICULAR, FELT AS THOUGH 
IF YOU BACK ROY UP AGAINST THE  
ROPES, HE'S NOT EFFECTIVE.
BUT HE'S CERTAINLY AWFULLY  
EFFECTIVE WHEN HE STANDS IN THE 
MIDDLE OF THE RING LIKE THIS.
GEORGE: THING ABOUT THIS ROY  
JONES, HE'S SO CONDITIONED.
IT TAKES A LOT OF ENERGY TO 
THROW THAT MANY POWER SHOTS,  
AND REGGIE IS HAVING A  
DIFFICULT TIME TRYING TO DECIDE 
WHAT DEFENSE TO USE.
JIM: SPEED IS THE DIFFERENCE SO 
FAR BETWEEN JONES AND JOHNSON.
GEORGE: DOESN'T MATTER WHO  
YOU'RE FIGHTING, YOU HAVE A 
DEFENSE.
YOU SET YOUR DEFENSE, YOU DON'T 
MOVE YOUR HANDS BACK AND  
FORWARD.
YOU JUST SET THEM WHERE THE GUY 
IS GOING TO HIT YOU.
JIM: JOHNSON GETTING TO THE 
BODY.
JONES BACKS UP.
HARD RIGHT HAND UPPERCUT BY 
JONES.
GEORGE: YOU NOTICE REGGIE'S 
HANDS WERE RIGHT IN THE RIGHT 
SPOT THAT TIME.
JIM: NOW HE BLOCKS A RIGHT HAND

THINK YOU HAVE TO MOVE YOUR 
HANDS BACK AND TO THE, BUT  
SETTING YOUR DEFENSE, YOU'RE  
OUT OF TROUBLE.
KEEP YOUR HANDS UP AT ALL 
TIMES.

FOREMAN LIVE AT RINGSIDE IN 
MISSISSIPPI.
LARRY MERCHANT NOT WITH US  
TONIGHT.
HE'S HOME IN CALIFORNIA FOR HIS 
DAUGHTER JULIE'S GRADUATION 
FROM HIGH SCHOOL.
AND JONES, HAVING ALREADY 
KNOCKED REGGIE JOHNSON DOWN 
ONCE IN THE FIRST ROUND LOOKS 
FOR ANOTHER ONE IN THE SECOND.

10-SECOND WARNING, NOT THE END  
OF THE ROUND.
REFEREE: LET'S GO!
JIM: ELMO ADOLPH HAS TO LET THE 
FIGHTERS KNOW IT'S NOT THE END  
OF THE ROUND.
THAT'S THE BELL THAT ENDS THE 
ROUND.
CONFUSING.
>> THAT'S GOOD.
IT'S WORKING, BABY.
GET THAT BLOOD OFF HIS CHEST,

JIM: IF ELMO ADOLPH HASN'T  
EXPRESSED AN OPINION TO 
OFFICIALS AT RINGSIDE --  
THERE'S HEAD CONTACT THAT ALSO  
COULD HAVE CAUSED THE CUT.
WE'RE NOTE SURE WHICH WAS THE 
INSTANCE IN WHICH REGGIE  
JOHNSON'S RIGHT EYE GOT SLICED  
OPEN.
NOW WE GO TO ROUND THREE.
GEORGE: WHENEVER ROY JONES  
SPREADS HIS LENGTH ANY LENGTH 
OF A WAY, HE'S TRYING TO GET IN 
A POWER SHOT.
I THINK REGGIE JOHNSON'S CORNER 
SHOULD BE IN INVOLVED IN GOT  
LETTING HIM SPREAD HIS LEGS.
JIM: HOW DO YOU STOP HIM?
GEORGE: STAY REAL CLOSE TO HIM.
MAKE HIM BACK UP.
JIM: I'M PRETTY SURE DON TURNER 
WOULD WANT REGGIE JOHNSON TO  
CROWD JONES A LOT MORE THAN 
HE'S DOING.
GEORGE: WHEN HE SPREADS HIS 

English: 
LEGS, YOU CAN ALSO JUST MOVE  
BACK A LITTLE BIT, MAKE HIM 
BRING HIS FEET TOGETHER AGAIN.
JIM: WE ARE TOLD INCIDENTALLY 
THAT JOHNSON'S CORNER FIRMLY  
BELIEVES THAT THE CUT OVER  
REGGIE'S RIGHT EYE WAS FROM THE 
BUTTNOT FROM THE PUNCH IN 
ROUND ONE.
OF COURSE, IT'S IN THEIR BEST 
INTEREST TO BELIEVE THAT.
JOHNSON WITH LEFT HAND, AND 
NOW DIGGING TO JONES' BODY.
JONES BACKS HIM UP WITH A 
RIGHT.
GEORGE: WHEN HE BACKS HIS LEGS  
UP, MOVE BACK A LITTLE BIT AND  
MAKE HIM START ALL OVER AGAIN.
THIS IS WHAT REGGIE HAS TO DO.
REFEREE: LET'S GO, LET'S GO.
DON'T PUSH HIM IN, REG.
GEORGE: ROY JONES DOESN'T LIKE  
USING HIS LEFT JAB, SO HE USES  
EVERYTHING WITH HIS FEET, 
SPREADS THEM APART.
JIM: AND DOES ROY DROP HIS LEFT 
HAND SO LOW BECAUSE HE WANTS  
YOU TO THROW THE RIGHT?

Spanish:

GEORGE: HE SPREADS HIMSELF

HE'S LOOKING FOR THE SAME THING 
YOU COULD CREATE WITH A RIGHT 
JAB OR A LEFT JAB.
JIM: A PUNCH COMBINATION BY 
JONES.
TOO MUCH SPEED FOR JOHNSON TO 
HANDLE.■
MORE LEAD RIGHT HANDS.
THAT MAKES JOHNSON BACK UP  
AGAINST THE ROPES AND NOT 
THROWING.
BLINDED BY JONES' SPEED.
GEORGE: ROY JONES KNOWS ALL 
THIS IS CREATED IN THE MIDDLE 
OF THE RING.
HE'S NOT GOING TO THROW 
ANYTHING WHILE THIS GUY IS ON 
THE ROPES.
TRY TO PULL HIM BACK OUT INTO 
THE MIDDLE OF THE RING.

MAN!
KEEP HIM IN THE CENTER OF THE 
RING.
JIM: IF YOU BLINKEDYOU MIGHT  
HAVE MISSED THE KNOCKDOWN.
WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN?
GEORGE: ROY GETS A CHANCE TO  
SQUARE HIS FEET.
BOOM.
GREAT RIGHT HAND.

English: 
HE BENT HIS KNEES.
DON'T ALLOW HIM TO SPREAD HIS 
LEGS.
ONCE AGAIN, HE'S GOT IT.
IT HAPPENED SO QUICKLY THAT YOU 
JUST CAN'T DUCK.
JIM: SECOND KNOCKDOWN IN THREE  
ROUNDS, SECOND TIME JOHNSON'S 
BEEN KNOCKED DOWN BY A QUICK  
STRAIGHT HAND, THIS ONE SET UP  
BY THE LEFT.
GEORGE: SELDOM YOU SEE GUYS 
WITH THAT KIND OF SPEED,  
ACCURACY, AND THE POWER TO GO 
ALONG WITH IT.
YOU JUST DON'T SEE IT THAT  
MUCH.
JIM: HAROLD LEDERMAN, HOW DO  
YOU HAVE IT?
HAROLD: ROY JONES.
YOU CERTAINLY HAVE TO GIVE HIM  
AN EXTRA POINT IN ROUND THREE.
PERSONALLY, I THOUGHT THEY  
SHOULD HAVE SENT IN A DOCTOR AT 
THE END OF THE THIRD ROUND TO 
LOOK AT REGGIE JOHNSON.
THERE WAS NO DOCTOR THERE.
I STILL THINK REGGIE JOHNSON'S  
COMING UP FOR THE HURT.
BUT THIS IS ALL ROY JONES.
LOOK AT THAT.
JIM: COULD SEE A FINISH HERE.

ROY JONES IS THERE AND BEYOND.
JIM: YEP.
JOHNSON LOOKING HESITANT AND  
CONFUSED AS HE TRAINED HARD,  
HAD A GOOD PLAN, WAS MENTALLY 
FOCUSED AND PREPARED, AND HAS 
SIMPLY BEEN DAZZLED BY JONES' 
OVERWHELMING PHYSICAL GIFT.
GEORGE: SELDOM YOU SEE A GUY  
GET TO THE STAGE ROY JONES HAS  
AND CONTINUOUSLY GETS INTO THE  
RING IN SHAPE.
JIM: FIRING TO THE BODY THAT  
TIME.
JONES HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY 
FOND OF BODY PUNCHS IN THE PAST

JIM: GEORGE, I KNOW YOU'RE A  
BIG OSCAR DE LA HOYA FAN, HAVE  
A LOT OF ADMIRATION FOR 
TRINIDAD AND VARIOUS OTHER  
FIGHTERS IN THIS SPORT.
IS ROY POUND FOR POUND YOUR 
NUMBER ONE?
GEORGE: I'VE NEVER SEEN 
ANYTHING LIKE THIS.
HE REMINDS ME OF MUHAMMAD ALI,  
JOE FRAZIER.
HE'S EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO SEE 
IN A FIGHTER.
JIM: THE REFLEXES OF A RAY  
LEONARD OR A RAY ROBINSON?
GEORGE: ANYTHING YOU WANT, HE 
HAS IT.
HE'S GOT BODY PUNCHING POWER.
JIM: SO, IT'S BEEN ALL ROY  
JONES FOR THE FIRST FOUR  
ROUNDS.
GEORGE: LIKE OSCAR DE LA HOYA,

HE HAS COURAGE.
JIM: YEAH.
SENSATIONAL UPPERCUT, SNAPS 
JOHNSON'S HEAD BACK.

THOUGH.
CAN'T PLAY WITH HIM.
JIM: ROY EVEN LOOKS AWAY TO TRY 
TO TEMPT REGGIE TO COME OFF THE 
ROPES AND DANCES WITH ELMO  
ADOLPH FOR FURTHER  
ENTERTAINMENT.
JIM: ONE-SIDED COMPUBOX NUMBERS 
REFLECTING JONES' OVERWHELMING  
DOMINANCE AGAINST A GUY WHO WAS 
REGARDED AS ONE OF HIS TOUGHEST

JOHNSON, REMEMBERING WHY ALL  
THOSE YEARS AGO SHE WASN'T SURE 
SHE WANTED HER SON TO BOX.

THIS IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT.
YOU CAN'T WIN THEM ALL.

JOHNSON'S CORNER.
REGGIE'S HANDLERS MAYBE THOUGHT 
THEY COULD CONCOCT A LITTLE

HE'S DEFINITELY THE 
BENEFICIARY.
NOW THEY START.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO MISS IT.
YOU TAKE THE POWER OFF, AND 
YOU'RE GOING TO GET HIM.

HUGGING HIM UP, STOPPED THE 
MOMENTUM.
GEORGE: LOOK AT THE ONE-SHOT, 
REGGIE.
ROY'S GOT HIS LEGS SPREAD, SO 
HE'S INTENDING TO LAND A HARD 
SHOT.
JIM: WELL, IT'S A -- AN ALMOST  
INSURMOUNTABLE TASK FACING  
JOHNSON NOW BECAUSE HE'S BOUND  
TO BE FOUR, FIVE, SIX POINTS  
DOWN ON THE SCORE CARDS.

HE WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK TO THE 
BASICS AND TRY TO BREAK ROY 
DOWN TO THE BODY AND SET HIM UP 
FOR SOMETHING IN THE LATE 
ROUNDS.
GEORGE: RIGHT JAB, DOUBLE ON  
THE JABS, GO TO THE BODY, AND 
FAINT.
THIS IS THE TIME O DEFEND 
YOURSELF.
JIM: HE'S NOT DOING ANY OF  
THAT.
GEORGE: BOXING WAS INVENTED SO  
THE SMALLER GUY CAN HAVE AN 
ADVANTAGE WITH THE SKILLS.
USE YOUR SKILLS.
JIM: AND YOU SAW THE ONE PUNCH  
JOHNSON LANDED.
IT WAS THAT WINGING RIGHT HAND  
AROUND THE TOP.

English: 
>> THE GUY'S QUICK.
YOU CAN SEE THAT.
RIGHT?
YOU GOT TO CROWN HIM AND THROW  
PUNCHES AND MAKE HIM BACK UP.
YOU'RE LETTING HIM BE THE 
AGGRESSOR.
COME ON, MAN.

HE'S GOING TO MAKE A MISTAKE.
YOU'RE GOING TO CATCH HIM.
IT'LL WORK.
JIM: KID GAVE LAND INVENTED 
THIS PUNCH.
HE LANDED IT A LITTLE HARDER  
THAN THAT.
GEORGE: SOMETIMES WHEN YOU'RE 
NOT DOING WHAT YOU WANT TO DO,  
YOU GET THE CROWD INVOLVED BY 
DOING FUNNY THINGS.
THIS IS SOMETIMES STILL THE 
CIRCUS, YOU KNOW.
