    The formula to beat Roy is simple.

    Pressure him and bully him around. Nothing more nothing less.

    The reason Ajamu failed was because he gassed out and tanked after the first round. Second of all he was mainly leaning over pushing Roy up against the ropes which was good that is what he need to do...But what he failed to do was go for his head. If you want to catch Roy Jones Jr. and hurt him you check his chin you dont work his body.

    I dont give Roy much of a chance against Calzaghe due to that Calzaghe pressures his opponents and if he could pressure Jones like he did Lacy non stop pressure he will get the knock out...Of course I am speaking only at this point in their careers if this were to happen.....Jones had no footwork for Ajamu and strutting around the ring while raising his hands to get a cheap pop doesnt count....

            There's no incentive for Glen or Joe to put on a bunch of weight to fight Roy at this point...
            Money is the incentive, and the fact that there's no one else to fight that will get them an easy paycheck. Both Glen and Joe probably see Roy as an easy paycheck...and they might be right.

                He's not going to retire, no matter how smart that would be. He's said as much. Might as well discuss what he can do to maximize his chances of winning since he IS going to fight.

                  Roy needs to move up to 230 Lbs eating fat back and turnip greens and retire. His time is over.

                    I think Roy could beat Glen Johnson, if he boxed in the middle of the ring, used his feet and stayed off the ropes. Glen as a high punchrate, but if roy can counter like he was against Ajamu, then he'll be fine. Hopkins and him would be a good fight, since hopkins has come up to 175 and peformed well at that weight. Thats the fight I would like to see. Calzaghe, I dont really got too much respect for his fight game (I havent seen that much either, except for whats on youtube). it seems like he is pimp slapping people when he punches and thats the only reason Lacy went 12 rounds. Roy will prolly fight Glen again and redeem himself for that loss, and I think Hopkins will prolly stay retired.
