People forget RJ has aleady beaten Bernad before, quite easily. Rj won every round. Bernard has always had trouble with fighters who have more physical athleticism than him (RJ). Right now, bernard is at the top in the sport. RJ is somewhere in the middle trying to finish his career the way he wants to. If bernard was to grant roy a fight and roy wins, it places roy right back at the top with bernard beneath him. Roy is still faster and probably stronger than bernard. So rather than tarnish his career anymore, bernard would rather not face such a challenge. This is a fight roy would come in supreme shape for. Roy jones is the worst type of fight for bernard, this is why he prices himself out. bernard will look great against slow, flat-footed fighters like KP, but against RJ, who knows what will happen. And at this point of his career, i doubt he wants to find out. If bernard lost it would completely damage his legacy and it would be a fight that would allow RJ to go out on top. What are your thoughts. By the way, this is my fist post, so hello everyone.
