[raysan]

Of course hes going to want the guy he maybe has a shot at beating to win, no surprise here

roy is right.....

So let me get this right. You think that Calzaghe is an easier fight than Hopkins, even after Roy easily, and yes I say easily, beat Hopkins in the first fight? get real man. Calzaghe is way, way, way more dangerous for Roy than Hopkins is. Give some credit for calling out the best around or soon to be in his weight class. And also, give him some props for trying to regain what he once had : a hand around the world of boxing. Roy was the best ever when he was on his game. Point blank, untouchable. Period. Now dispute that.

Roy Jones Jr is just protecting his own interest in facing Calzaghe.

He doesn't really think that Joe will win but he hopes so. He knows that Hopkins will not fight him. I bet he also picked Tarver to beat Hopkins as well because he couldn't do it. And what happened there?

How is giving an opinion on who will win a fight, protecting his own interest? its not like roys opinion is gonna win the fight for joe..

If roy jumped in the ring and they tag teamed hopkins... that would be protecting his own interest

Thank you for telling us that Roy is just lying through his teeth, because he knows Hopkins is afraid of him and Calzaghe is not. And do you honestly think Bernard would have had a chance against Tarver if he hadn't been weight drained from the Rocky movie? As I remember Roy also beat Tarver.

the tarver that fought roy would destruct hopkins

He is picking Joe to win because he has interest in making history and taking away Joe's supper-middleweight title while he is still undefeated.

It's not an opinion. It's clear that he and Hopkins have had problems in the past in coming together and making a fight. Yes he is picking a winner, but it's more of a hope pick then a carefully thoughtout pick.

If roy had no plans on fighting Joe, I would think different.

You can't believe your own bullshiiit can ya? Hopkins schooled Tarver, the difference in skills was obvious from the start.

We can go around the circle with this nonsense with me saying "The Roy before moving up to heavyweight would have schoole Tarver and knocked him out" .........which means that the Tarver against Roy wasn't ****, just at the right time at the right place.

the tarver that fought hopkins wasnt the same tarver
