    I see what you're saying but its not like Roy shouldnt end with a win. Just thinking about it........what about Erdei? You think Roy would get embarrassed by him? Im not so sure.

      I just don't see what going out with a win achieves when it is against a B level fighter and not on a big stage. If you are done you are done in this game, there is no need to hang around.

        Well Erdei is a champ, arguably the linear champ. Going to Germany even and beating him would be an excellent way to end.

        Either that or have another exhibition type star fight like the Tito one.

        Either way, I dont think hes in danger of getting seriously hurt.

        However I wouldnt mind seeing him retire. Cos a big win might give him false dawns and convince him to carry on even further

          erdei has been feasting on bums, i'm sure roy could beat him, though he'd probably get robbed by ze germans. if roy wanted to beat erdei and then retire, that would be a good way to go out

            Haha, exactly. As if there was need for another reason there it is.

              Just from a selfish perspective though, I'd like to see Roy go out on a high. Going to Germany and beating Erdei would be perfect for me. I dont see it though.

                So what

                He got beat by Calzaghe but so did Hopkins and look at whats happening. Roy still has his skills and can continue. Id like to see Jones fight Hopkins again. That would be fun to watch.

                  It's time for Roy to go. He doesn't own any of us a damn thing and should enjoy his wealth and retirement instead of risking his health any further.

                    Retirement is the best option imo.

                    he has nothing left to prove.
