      Roy can still win fights... just not on the level he used too.. that doesnt mean you're shot....

      If you compare ANYONE to Prime Roy they will look shot..
      Lol, you don't think Roy's shot? Is washed up=shot?

        The sad thing is he will probably beat Lacy, then everyone will hype him to beat Taylor
        Taylor will stop him.

            I think he would have a great chance of beating Taylor. Taylor has his flaws and Roy has the brains to expose them a bit.

              No, actually I don't... far past his best days? Yes.

              Unable to still fight? No... maybe not at the level he once could... maybe not at the elite level anymore...

              But he can still fight, and can still win... that isnt shot in my eyes...


              He only looks shot when you compare him to prime roy...

                  So, if Taylor beats Froch, will Roy challenge him for the WBC 168 title? If so, what the hell has he done to earn a shot?

                  If Froch beats Taylor, i can see Jermain taking this fight to propel him back into Title contentions. If Jones/Taylor happens, US boxing will be taking a step down.

                    Everything he's earned throughout his career is what gives him the chances... just like every other hall of fame fighter that fights on past his best days, are still able to get title shots, based on what they have accomplished in their primes.

                    What did Barrerra do? What did Holyfield do? What did Larry Holmes do?

                    They had hall of fame careers.
