things like this is why I don't **** with ufc like that.... there's no talent or skill or even honour in hitting an unconscious opponent with power punches (in sport).. this sort of thing happens in ufc all the timeComment

What the **** was Roy doing fighting at Cruiserweight at this stage of his career anyway?! Hes not in his youth anymore he aint got the speed and athletism to cope with guys that size anymore... should of stuck to 175, he gained nearly a stone in weight FFS.Comment

Roy in my eyes is still Roy. see what people have to remember is that once you start to lose your abilities then you are no longer that unstoppable form of yourself, it's not like you became a different human being but you're not the same anymore so that makes all the difference.
I can look at Roy Jones as still that same great fighter because it took for him to be so far past it for someone to finally touch him, also because I know that in his prime you can't name ANY fighter from 154-180lbs that would have defeated him.
me knowing this makes this video seem like bittersweet candy, bitter because as a fight fan I love Roy Jones Jr and appreciate him as a human being, fighter and the examples he set for the kids, he has a big heart so me seeing this video is definitely bitter for me but the sweet part of it kicks in when you really analyze and understand that this is the ONLY way it could have happened to Roy, by him being a SHELL of his former self.
he looks the same, acts the same and even talks the same but us true Boxing fans know he isn't th same, he's only 1/4th of the man he had lived to become at one point in time, it took for his ability to be decreased by an outstanding volume in order for guys to touch him up like that. that to me is sweet but I can't lie the bitter kinda over takes the sweet when I see the vid, I'll always stand behind the thought that he should have retired after Ruiz, to me he would have been top 3 the best EVERComment
