EDITED IT for you, to make it more factful. You had a lot of opinion in there. Opinions are not facts.Roy! Lets take a look at what he's done.
When people thought of him as great on his run from MW to HW he never beat a linear champion.
At MW: Won a vacant strap against Bernard Hopkins. Made a couple of ordinary defences.
At SMW: Fought James Toney (Liles was the linear champ at the time) and won. He didn't fight Eubank, Benn and Liles.
At LHW: Won a vacant title against Griffin (at the second time of asking) and never fought DM.
At HW: Fought Ruiz who wasn't a top 3. He never fought the undisputed heavweight champion of the world. He then returned to 175.
The first time Roy fought a #1 contender was Antonio Tarver after moving down from HW.
Edit: Yeah, i notice the typo in the thread title

Not that it's not fact, but you're wording it to discredit him. You can't prove that he moved up from MW to avoid Gman. You can guess that but you can't prove that, that is the reason why. I actually agree that Roy is overrated a bit but it's silly to completely discredit him and call him a fraud. Like I said before, you could take any fighter's record and talk **** about it and make it look bad.Comment

What is a farud?Seriously, Roy has to be the most ridiculously overrated fighter in history! Lets take a look at what he's done.
When people thought of him as great on his run from MW to HW he never even beat a linear champion (top champ in the division) and he never once defended against his top rated contender. Roy is the ultimate paper champion, he is a fraud of the highest order.
At MW: Won a vacant strap against Bernard Hopkins. Made a couple of defences against nobodys then moved up when G-Man was a clear #1 contender to him.
At SMW: Fought a dead at the weight James Toney (Liles was the linear champ at the time) and won. Fought cops and postmen instead of fighting Eubank, Benn and Liles.
At LHW: Won a vacant title against Griffin (at the second time of asking) then went on to duck DM for a whole 5 years.
At HW: Fought Ruiz who wasn't even top 3 for a Don King manufactured strap, Got called out by Lewis then ran away back to 175.
The first time Roy fought a #1 contender was Antonio Tarver after moving down from HW and the only reason he took that fight was because Lewis called him out.
This guy is a fraud, he's the biggest fraud in boxing history who avoided all the top rated dangermen and took vacant titles and fought for the lesser straps.
