only if we would've retired after he beat ruiz

Hasbeen, his time has passed, he is already a legend, he will probably beat Trinidad then after that he should retire.

hasbeen for me to.Especially after he got knocked out 2x at the end of his career. I cant believe him and hopkins never had that match. I think him and hopkins could still do that and sell some tickets.

i disagree to some extent.. i mean.. hes still got it man.. the speed and combos.. potshots and all that.. i just dont think any1 is interested him anymore. i am tho..

i miss watching him on HBO wen i was a kid just killing it..

we need a dominant fighter like him again in the sport.. i wish he actually fought in the last tarver right.. the 5th round was the only round he fought and didnt run and cover up. why didnt he FIGHT? i dont know..

He's about 40 percent of his prime right now, but that 40 percent of Roy is still enough to beat most LH's out there.

He needs to fight Hopkins in order for him to retire i dont think hes done but he aint the same.

Hasbeen......................

It really depends on how Roy fights. He really hasn't taken all that much damage in his career, so if he starts to fight smart and slows down the pace like Hopkins, I think he could pull out a second career. He still has the offensive fireworks of old, but he just cant get out of the way of punches like he use to.

I agree hopkins/jones would be great for both of them
