    And winning against Roy wouldn't do anything but avenge a loss on record, hence his point is right. I doubt he is affraid of losing to Roy but the risk/reward ratio is ridiculous. Not only that but Roy doesn't wanna take 40% and wants the winner to get 60%.

    If you're a Roy fan you can say Hopkins is in the way of the fight not happening, but imo Roy is. Agree to the 40% and if B-Hop still don't want it, then you gotta point.
    That video is old I believe. That was when the 2 devastating knockout were still fresh in the people's minds. That video was before Roy Jones unquestionably redeemed himself by defeating the great Jeff Lacy.

      ODLH was right when he said RJJ should retire.

        Your opinion is delussional.

        Of course Roy has a chance against a 45 yr old Bernard Hopkins.

        Only a moron would say Roy has ZERO chance of beating 45 yr old Bernard Hopkins.

          I ain't saying he has ZERO chance coz anything can happen in a boxing fight but it's very unlikely.
          Roy can't move his feet anymore, can't be as fast for 12 rounds. Plus he has a weak chin. RJJ can only show glimpses of his old days. On the other hand, Hopkins is just coming off one of the 2 best performances of his career against the best middleweight in the world. Hopkins looked even faster and more agressive than he did in previous fights.


          Hopkins 70% and RJJ 30%: those are their chances in this matchup.

            Well then it isnt delussional to see Roy possibly winning the fight.

            People gave Tarver LESS than 30% of a chance to beat Roy in the rematch.
