    I was one of the few that forseen it. But I also predicted it in the first fight too. I just couldn't believe he could drop 20 pounds after looking so trim against Ruiz and make 175. Before the second fight I was saying it and everybody thought I was crazy.
    I was a Jones fan and not a Tarver fan at the time too. Still it was sad to see it happen but the first thing that popped into my mind was OH WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?????

          Reed: Nooo
          I was rooting for Montel Griffin and he won some of the early rounds but Roy is coming on strong and on the brink of scoring a KO. Montel tokk a knee and Roy hit him hard. Montell act a little IMO.

          That's a disgusting 1st loss for Roy.



          I was also SHOCKED at the Tarver KO. I think Nady counted a little fast.

                      I got over it the next day because that stuff happens in boxing but I can remember the initial reaction very clearly. It was "HOLY ****!" when he got hit and went down then a "DAMN!" when it was stopped. Never forget it.
