    Roy needs to retire. It's getting pathetic now.

    I love Roy but the guy is shot to pieces. I actually think all the criticism that has come B-Hop's way has disguised how woeful Roy really was.

    I mean, I know why he's fighting like that. He's 41, been knocked out 3 times now. But he knows he's gun-shy and doesn't have it anymore, so why does he continue to fight? I don't think it's fair anymore that he's allowing his loyal fans to watch this gun-shy, shot version of himself.

    What's worse is that he's putting these fights on PPV too. I'm not saying he's doing this strictly for a payday, I think he's addicted to fighting and all that comes with it, but to carry on now is making a mockery of the sport and his fans loyalty. I don't even think he should have a farewell fight, as he had the chance on ending it with the win over Sheika in Pensalcola.

    This is hard for me to be so critical of a fighter I love, but it has to be said.

          Roy hasnt been the same guy for several years. Thats why nothing he has done since Ruiz has really mattered.

            He should have retired some years ago, I hope he can get someone to sit him down and make him do it now.

                  Problem is he loses and he doesn't seem too upset with it when does...shudda retired a long time ago...the Calzaghe fight was the nail in the coffin...

                    I thought we knew this before last Saturday? Isn't that why we bashed Hops? Or did everyone miss him getting KO'ed in one by Danny Green?
