    Watch the fight again, Green was standing face on and Roy turned his head and got hit. He only has himself to blame.

    I've read about the handwrap accusations but like I said there is no concrete evidence, you tried to pass it on as a fact when really there's no substance to it at all. The result will always stand as a first round KO loss against the man who got outboxed by Mundine.
    Have the fight DVR'd and have watched it 100 times on super slow-mo. Yes, Roy turned his head, but that doesn't mean it was a legal blow now does it? A competent ref would have recognized where the blow landed and allowed Roy to recover in true sportsmanship. If he didn't see the shot, I can understand it but there is a controversy behind the win whether you admit to it or not.

    And, as far as the concrete evidence of illegal handwraps, just see the pictures of Green and his wraps that are out there. It's clear that by the IBO rules, those wraps were ridiculously illegal. Tell me you have enough common sense to realize they were illegal wraps. There was even a protest prior to the fight , which is why it was delayed for so long after th undercards.

      Im not proclaiming Nassem Hamed to be one of the GOAT like most of the deluded Ducks fans.
      BTW Naz beat all the champions of his division.Roy simply ducked most of them.

          I wouldn't doubt it fanboy

          It was no less legal than Jones' forearm smash against Calzaghe

          And, as far as the concrete evidence of illegal handwraps, just see the pictures of Green and his wraps that are out there. It's clear that by the IBO rules, those wraps were ridiculously illegal. Tell me you have enough common sense to realize they were illegal wraps.

          If there was concrete evidence Green would be suspended, sorry but you have no case.

          Green > Jones
