                  ok, this is all that matters. I dont care about his title defences. when he got his title, it wasnt even considered a legit title. some people still dont consider the WBO to be legit. and a lot of those defences were garbage anyhow.
                  and two weight linear champion doesnt sound so great when you remember that the only people that hes planning on facing at LHW were former(and old) middleweights. the whole linear thing is kind of iffy anyway, because not only is it debatable that Zsolt "The most cowardly title holder in boxing" Erdie is the real linear champ, but that technically Roy should have relinquished that linear title when he went up in weight.

                  lets take a look at what matters...his wins over Hopkins, Lacy, Kessler, Woodhall, Mitchell, Brewer, Bika, and Eubank. I would have put Reid there, but I thought Calzaghe lost that fight. but thats HOF worthy. ATG is quite a stretch.

                    He could be a hall of famer but not high on a all time list. He beat Jones and Hopkins when they were over the hill. And fought in his own backyard for a long time.
