    Let me tell you why it is a good idea...

    Going from Middleweight to Heavyweight is a hell of an accomplishment... but it wasnt finished there.

    Roy needed to re-gain the LHW championship to MATCH what Bob Fitsimmons did 106 years earlier...

    And he did so, against the New #1 rated LHW champion.

    Beating Tarver after coming down from Heavyweight is another, helluvan accomplishment.

    Whatever happened after Roy regained the LHW title, doesn't even matter....

    HE DID IT.

    But in order to appreciate that, you first must know WTF you're talking about.

    So I understand your point.

I know you're just trying to make me look like a jackass though so its aight homie. Also in that thread i mentioned majoring in Engineering Science. Like i said, I know you're trying to make look like a jackass so it's whatever kid.

      EDIT: BTW, If you can find that thread and get me where I said I'm a english teacher and if it doesent mention me majoring in Eng Sci. I will give you all my points right now. And the thread isnn't from too far back so it's not impossible to find it.

            Duran lost once in his first 72 fights, that loss was to someone who is probably top ten in the division all time.

            Duran was 31-0, 72-1 having fought way higher quality opposition than Floyd. WAY HIGHER.

            De Jesus himself probably has 4-5 wins better than anything PBF has.
