    hmm

    I get tired of hearing Roy now and then, but don't act like you know the man. He is a really nice guy in person and is always accessible, and gives money away to charities for Iraq verterans and G-Man.

    In any case, he does bring a fighter's insight and makes good comments, so don't just hook on the bad stuff he does and ***** about it all the time, because you look like a woman if you do that.

    Also let me say, Roy's career accomplishments are as good or better than Hopkins'. Period.

      Regarding the original poster, I also believe this and always have since I first heard Roy's commentary. I love how he kept brushing in the fact that he beat Hopkins just to feel good that while this guy is making a 20th title defense and going down in history, he still was one of the only guys to beat him. Very annoying although I have to admit, you get some good commentary from Roy just because he knows more of the boxing insights and tactics more ever so than the regular commentaries will know. I found that fact he threw in about the Biceps in the Morales-Barrera III fight pretty interesting and I think it even enlightended the regular HBO commentary. So yeah, he's an ****** for the most part though he can provide good commentary you won't get from the regular HBO crew and he sure beats Foreman's hilarious, 3 minute explanations on something that could take 10 seconds.

        I would have to say Roy has some of the greatest skills of any fighter today (well he did) Take De la hoya and Trinidad out of Hopkins record and Roy's really exceeds that of Hopkins. Roy had tremendous skills but Bernard is up their....I admire both of them equally, but im not a big fan of Roy but he was amazing at the work he did at 160.

          he stutters, he repeats himself and he steadfastly refuses
          to acknowledge he was koed twice in a row.

          b-hop hasnt been koed at all in his career.

          i love it when lampley puts him on the spot.
          he asks better questions although he takes awhile.

          but roy did beat b-hop and he did take a HW title which
          plenty of HW's who fought ruiz have failed to done.

          so no id replace roy too but dont know who with.

          its always good to have someone thier whos been a pro.

          and i dont mean foreman who sees every fight through
          the eyes of a HW

                Lampley frequently mentions the 2 knockouts of Roy, but nothing was ever said that was directed towards him about it. Unfortunately so, as I have been anxiously wanting to hear Roy's comments on them....On a side note, I have never recalled any studdering on Jones part either.

                  Who better to commentate on a fighter than his most notable conquerer?

                  Roy's good, but Tyson would make a great commentator. Throw the dog a bone, man.

                    Roy Jones wouldn't be Roy if he wasn't so conceited lol. but he still provides some meaningfull insights on fights. He's been in teh game and he knows what he's talking about.

                      For sure, I think Roy is good for HBO he is the opposite of Merchant.
