GL: So you're saying his hand wraps were illegal and the boxing authorities out there let it ride?
Roy Jones Jr: Yeah, and they told me if I didn't come out they were going to disqualify me. How am I not going to come out with 20,000 people there to watch me fight?* Cause he got a cast on? Nah, that's not my style.
GL: Did you wrap your hands with extra gauze once you learned about that?
RJJ: "Nope. I couldn't. It was too late, I didn't know and they were really trying to keep him away from me and if I would have known I would have done the same thing I did with the Jeff Lacy fight, let me wrap my hands the same way and I'm cool with it."

Well at this point, it's gotta account for something. I've been asking the same question over and over again, "how the hell did he get knocked down by a punch with so little contact?". The part of the punch that landed looked like the thumb area. I don't want to make excuses for Roy, but something about that whole situation just isn't right.

I know guys. But why would Rjj make an accusation like that? This is big and something huge is gonna happen. U watch. Anybody got a boxxingtalk is the source minus 1 x
I used to go to that site all the time - before they charged for most everything. I don't know- I think this was as tough of a loss for Roy as it was for the rest of us. It was a punch to a bad spot., I think that the rest of the interview was better - Roy said that he was recovered by the time they stopped it and he knew green was gassing himself. Really most of the punches were not landing...but he should have tied him up or thew some back. You just hate to see anything like a Roy Jones get a stoppage like that. It is like B-Hop said - you have to give some leeway to a legend like RRJ. It is over now though - in the books. Roy also said in the interview there was a rematch clause that he was planing to exercise. He didn't feel it was lagit...
Lol... It won't let me write the source boxingttttttt talk
Taking roys word for it doesnt confirm anything.
May raise suspicion but it doesnt CONFIRM... anything.
