Yeah, I probably did take you too literally. I don't know why you think it was a sideshow. Both fighters aren't what they were, true, but both gave respectable solid performances and will have more chances at paydays. This wasn't McCall crying as he walks around the ring or Tyson biting off Holy's ear.
How many "Roy is Back" threads will we endure?

I just can't see how anyone took this fight seriously.Yeah, I probably did take you too literally. I don't know why you think it was a sideshow.

Or can use it as a True measuring tool for where both Fighters are at.
If anything Tito came out of the fight better off.
He took a former HW the distance and even won a few rounds as well.
A prime Tito got blown away by Hopkins.Comment

tito's too small for rjj, and he was too small for hop. you neutralize tito's left hook, and you move laterally effectively, and you've got a good shot at defeating tito.I just can't see how anyone took this fight seriously.

roy isn't a HW, he went up cause he saw a chance to make history vs. an awkward slow guy in ruiz. he made that history, but ironically, it hurt his legacy simply because i think the weight fluctuations killed him vs. tarver. yea, the scorecard says he won the 1st fight, but i don't think he did. he then compounded this mistake by fighting tarver and glen johnson so soon. if roy stays at 170 throughout, who knows?
this fight opens the door a crack wider, because now people wanna see if roy is truly "back" or not. but, it's nowhere near time for celebration... and i'm an RJJ fan.Comment
