    What about Winky Wright? I think Roy should call him out. Roy would beat him. Winky doesn't have any power for Roy to worry about.

    Joe C. beats Roy easy.
    Oscar fight isn't happening....ever.
    Hopkins would make sense but IMO it would be boring.
    Taylor and Pavlik I'm not sure. I think because of their power they could hurt Roy, but I can also see Roy winning decisions against both. If I had to bet, I say they beat Roy.

    I'm not a big Roy fan, but if he wants to beat a fighter with a name, I say it should be Winky.

      me from another thread :
      i like how he wants to fight DLH before taking on hopkins in rematch. roy going after a guy who proved that he has no business fighting in any weight past 154 or 147 for that matter........

      i know he wants calzaghe but what if hopkins beats calzahge? would roy still want to fight DLH before he would go after hopkins???

      and what if calzaghe blows hopkins out of the water??(which i doubt) but would roy really want that kind of a fight? or would he still pursue DLH???

      his list is a good list, minus DLH, there is no reason for that at all.........Jones-DLH what a joke of a fight........

        The DLH fight wont happen. Oscar would get beat down it would be pointless, but it would probably make money...

          I'm a little upset that Winky has fallen off the face of the earth, it seems, when it comes to big names mentioned for fights. He put on a great showing against Taylor I thought, and arguably won that fight. Against Hopkins (who everyone is claiming old and washed up, but he sure didn't look that way against Wright 6 mo ago) I think he did pretty well considering his eye was split open from a headbutt (intentional imo) pretty early, rd 3 I think, and since he was fighting 10 lbs above any weight he'd fought before, 16 lbs above his best weight. I still think he gives anyone a tough fight at 160 and could easily win a title at 154 if he could still make the weight.

            I didn't catch the order but I think it was..

            1)Joe Cal
            2)De La Hoya
            3)Hopkins
            4)Pavlik
            5)Taylor

            He called De La Hoya out calling him a chicken and **** saying he needs to fight him? but Roy's the bigger ***** for wanting to fight someone who is much smaller in De La.. I guess even Roy realizes that he can't pull money like Oscar so he has to stoop low like everyone else who's broke calling him out. Roy your better then that!

            what the hell???????????

            Yes we did (asking for DLH), and they said no he does not want to get into the ring with me. I took gambles for the history of game. Why won’t these guys take gambles like I did? These guys call themselves pound for pound this and that, but they aren’t willing to risk nothing. I knew after coming down from heavyweight that I wasn’t right, and I would probably have to take a loss or two, but I went up for the good of the game and for the challenge. Why is he so scared? Why am I the only one who takes these chances for the good of the game? Even if you get your ass whooped, your not losing. Just do it for the cause. (Laughing)…
            But they said no regarding De La Hoya, but maybe Hopkins down the road

            this iswhat RJJ said !! and he is 100 % correct !

                  Because one weight class separated them as opposed to the three for Jones and Oscar.

                  Also... Oscar = ineffective at 160.

                  How the **** is he going to be ineffective at 168 fighting a guy who won a heavyweight title at one point?

                      Well tonight he said the lowest he would go is 166.

                      Anyways... a fighter who started at 130 fighting a fighter who won a heavyweight title...

                      I see something seriously wrong with that.
