Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Willing To Face Oscar De La Hoya in Triller PPV Clash

[Oregonian]

Roy probably wants to spark Oscar because he’s probably resentful that Oscar was more popular than him despite the fact the Roy was significantly better than Oscar ever was.

Are you assuming Roy was resentful? Is there any suggestion from any source that ever suggested or inferred that Roy was resentful? Those are gossip words you used.
Roy was the #1 P4P fighter for almost 10 years. Why would he be resentful or jealous?

[Rip Chudd]

Man Roy must really need the money

Roy has never been a big fan of Oscar, he’s mentioned wanting to fight him back in the day and it’s possibly due to Oscar getting all the praise and big pay days while Jones was light years better than him. But since you seem to be sensitive about the topic and need a quote from Roy where he expresses animosity towards Oscar, here you go:
"I don't even think he's (Oscar) got enough respect to talk to me. I never gave up. He gave up to a smaller man (Pacquiao). I don't owe no explanation for that. I don't even think he earned the right to talk to me. I ain't never quit. Got cut and still went on against what they called pound-for-pound one of the best fighters out there (Calzaghe) and never thought about quitting. And he gonna tell me what I need to do? I'm the kind of dude that will fight him, Shane Mosley and Bernard Hopkins all in the same night. I don't care."

Was wondering if Roy was really getting paid with all that Russian stuff, but seems like Triller is probably paying better than *****.

[HandsofIron]

Go away overrated Jones and take boring overrated Hopkins with you.

[Roadblock]

Give it up Roy you fought at HW and Oscar was out of it at MW , this is really getting ridiculous , as someone said Floyd would be the best possible money making retiree to fight Oscar right now.
