    I recognize that. I'm sure he is a decent man, and his encounter with me certainly does not define him as an individual. That is why I don't really hate him, and have still rooted for him in his fights after that day.

    But someone of his stature can give a kid so much motivation & make their whole day by providing them with a friendly encounter that leaves them with a pleasant memory....It was just very disappointing to me after looking up to him for so many years.

    Again, I'm sure he is a good guy, but the reality is that he was quite rude to me when we met. I'm sure other people have met him & had great encounters. It is what it is.
    you've handled this real well i remember meeting greg oden, asked for an autograph and the ****er ignored me, im still pissed till this day lol

      I feel what you're saying. Imagine being a celebrity where you entire life is under a microscope and every where you go you get no privacy and people always coming up to you.

      On the flip side no one put a gun to his head and said you better be a boxer or else.

            Speaking of Roy has anyone ever seen any of Stacey Louise Reile fights? I know female boxers but don't know anything about her.

              My girl and I have met Roy a couple of times and he's always been cool and open. Maybe just a bad day or time, atleast I hope so.....

                    Agree with this post.

                    As bad as Roy is at commentary, It doesn't get worse than Lummox.

                    Paulie does a fantastic job and so did Tarver.

                      An old friend in Portland was a good middleweight and had the chance to fight in a boxing promotion he had at a casino. My friend said he was real cool, even when asked for some connections....
