    this is undoubtedly the best yet saddest boxing tribute ive ever seen

    I know many of you have saw this highlight

    Gorilla productions should have a job somewhere with PBC, HBO, SHowtime doing there promo spots

    the choice of highlights, the way he put everything in order like it told the story of his entire career is amazing...the music starting out with LL COOL J who is argaubly the GOAT in hip hop

    I personally dont care what anyone says, ive watched as many ATG as possible and I wouldnt favor anyone over a prime jones 160-175....not even charles or spinks....elusive is elusive in 2016 same as it was in 1880


    easily the greatest talent to be a boxer....there are fighters that are good, talented but roy was god gifted

    One of the best boxing highlight videos, the flashbacks of the 1st Hopkins fight during the 2nd fight highlights was a great feature.

      it was poetic...man that **** is sad...Hopkins didnt want none from 95-05...it took roy to take some losses for him to grow a pair....why should roy give you 50/50 and he beat you and is the champion at a higher weight......Roy is responsible for me even putting on a pair of boxing gloves.

      Hearing about Ali introduced me to the sport....watching his fights on espn classic...do you remember sugar rays hit parade on espn....jeremy schaap dad had a shoe.....i was a casual fan then but after I watched Jones do what he did to Virgil Hill in his 3rd/4th weight class and dominate 168...i was like is the guy even real

        Roy in his prime was something else, we may not see that talent again in our lifetime.

            I've seen much better video editing from them in the past. They have also had much better song selection as well. I have also seen better selection of Roy footage in a less fancier video of Roy where his songs play in the background. There was more devastating selection used in an older video. I was not feeling the rap songs, even though I know the rap songs were symbolic with Roy's career because it was LL raping about his longevity and being the GOAT. I give it a 6/10, wouldn't watch again.
