        of coarse i think Roy would be favourite to beat them i have'nt said any different

        but unlike u i dont see it sufficient for u not to fight them based on that reason alone ,they are world class fighters they have more than a chance of beating Roy

        & there have been some massive upsets in Boxing over the years where certain fighters who were underdogs have won against all the odds

        even if Benn or Eubank didnt wanna fight him then why side step someone like Nunn who u claim was passed his sell by date anyway ,there aint no excuse except Roy excepted fights that were low risk fights unless he was getting ridiculous amounts of money to take a risk ,which in turn only discredits his legacy as a fighter IMO

        although he was a teriffic fighter is he way overated by American fans they speak of him like he was God

          He hit him for the same reason he stayed down in the Tarver and Johnson fights - He didn't want to get hurt anymore and save his embaressments.

              I'll take Manfredo (bloated welter/middle) over Pazienza (bloated lightweight).

                No? I bet he was laughing all the way to the bank.

                Unlike Roy who cried when he got KOed.

                    Pazman had a broken neck and refused to throw punches in the fight.

                    Manfredo almost beat a shot Lacy who refused to throw punches and had a broken arm (not in the fight but before it). Manfredo was also beaten by a welterweight.

                    I don't know it's tough to pick but one thing I do know is that both suck as challengers.

                      If McClellan didn't get injured he would of been the P4P king for years and KOed Roy in the first round.
