    As Roy's biggest fan, I have to still say he's done facing top tier fighters. I was suprised he hung with Lebedev and it's hard to tell how hard Lebedev was trying. It alsmost seemed like he let the fight go into the final round on purpose and then opened up. If Roy was able to keep the fights in the middle of the ring and circle and stop getting pinned on the ropes he could be competitive with the best but he seems just incapable of doing so at this point.

      RJJ says he wasn't that well prepared for the Lebedev fight. He said he prepared now. Said he's been looking good in sparring, but at the end of the day sparring don't mean nothing because most of the times you wearing head gear. Roy has sweet soft spot on the side of his head been Ko'd 3 times in almost the same spot by Green, Johnson and now Lebedev. Hopefully he can pull off a Lacy performance and go out with a win December 10th.
