All roads led to roy....Do you think so?

after the tarver ko toney and hopkins roads to roy only strnegthen cuz now they knew for sure he could be beat b4 no one reall wnated the rematch they jus said that cuz they needed to but tarver is serioulsy screwed now lmao dat shit is too funny what sux more obvioulsy tarvers forst ko was more meaningful since he was da first but i thought that johnson did a far better job of beaten a demonstrating that roy was done tarver made it seem like one lucky punch Glen thouroly handed my boy roy an ass whoppen still much love for roy but its time to hang up the gloves I agree 100%.

Just curious what you think and what your opinions are on this... Everyone from middleweight to heavyweight was anticipating roys 1st and 2nd move as all big fights led to roy jones jr. especially for the mega bucks Hopkins road was headed towards Jones Toneys road was headed towards Jones (although he is focused on klitschko) Tarvers road was headed towards Jones Jones road was connected to all 3 men... Does this spoil the big mega fights? I think so and only one fighter is going to be hurt from it aside from jones. Hopkins has the lucrative options of fighting Trinidad for a rematch or Jermain Taylor and why not eastman? Toney has bigger and badder things from klitschko to jirov enough said Jones can retire gracefully...However it is going to burn Roy Jones inside retiring at the end with 2 ko losses, which is why I dont think he will retire and will fight atleast 3 more fights and then hang them up in easy fashion fights, Back to the garbage and postal men for you....However we are not even sure if he would handle those guys well....Considering pressure=defeat for Jones Roy Jones is the little mike tyson, you stand up and put pressure make him feel stupid and not all big and bad and he drops.... The only man hurting from this is Tarver? Where does tarver go now? His light heavyweight days are over as noone is their to challenge him besides calzaghe which isnt a big mega fight (although I favor calzaghe) He could drop down to middle or super middleweight to go against hopkins...But where is the interest now? He could go up to heavyweight and bang with the big boys but as well who is their for him??? Anyone else wish to spread some thoughtul thinking and opinions? I would like to see tarver fight toney. Toney would rip him apart, IMO.

I was thinking the same thing. He was instantly on the phone. "what do I do know?" I thought the same thing. I figured tarver would be there to kick up some dust if roy won. tarver is probably still pretty far in debt and roy was the only big payday in the light heavy division.

Tarver must have been fucking pissed when he saw Roy go down along with his future paycheck. Mannn that's a lot of money lost! I was thinking the same thing. He was instantly on the phone. "what do I do know?"

all roads stopped leading to Roy when he got KO'ed by Tarver

I'd rather see him fight Sturm.

Well I heard Sam "King" Saliman is talking alot of shit and wants Hopkins...go to eastsideboxing.com and read the article...it's funny as hell.

This eliminates Roy from the megafights but there's still plenty to go around. Let's face it, Roy wasn't gonna fight Hopkins. He had 10 years to schedule a rematch - why would he do it now? Same with toney. Bernard needs to hope Mayorga wins against Trinidad. If Trinidad wins, Bernard needs to schedule his 20th defense and start negotiations with Tarver for his next fight after that. Tarver does the same - mandatory, then Hopkins. Glen Johnson's mandatory is Rico Hoye. Maybe Calzaghe gets in the mix? De La Hoya / Trinidad can happen even if Tito is KO'd. Mosley and DLH and Mayorga have shown recently that just 1 loss doesn't bury your name. Winky Wright's next move at 154 is most interesting. I'd like to see him fight Phillips/Ouma winner but maybe he goes after a big name, too. Winky vs. Mayorga is an intriguing matchup.

Tarver's win lost some of it's luster...because he isn't the only man capable of doing it anymore.
