    Roy was a hell of a fighter, but he gets overrated as fu.ck on these forums.

    Reason unknown

      You've got a better case in saying BHop beat Prime RJJ in their 2nd fight than saying RJJ beat Prime BHop in their first fight

      It's just re-visionary stuff. There's a reason RJJ didn't take the rematch until it didn't matter. Roy was a phenomenal fighter, but far from GOAT or whatever some people pretend

        You can rag on him all you want, but prime RJJ was as unbeatable a fighter as I've ever seen. Are there fighters who rank ahead of him all-time P4P? Lots. Would I take any of them over Roy in a head to head fight? Nope.
