No-one listen to this MMA forum gimp. He thinks that Floyd "Spaghetti Legs" Mayweather has proven to have a better chin through his career than James Toney has through his - ie: the guy's a ****.
If anybody is a "forum gimp" it is you, Slopkins. You are a deluded ******* and Royboy who is actually going to try and paint Hill, Griffin, Ruiz, Malinga, Johnson, and Woods as actual world-class opponents. They weren't. They were also-rans that Roy feasted on whilst avoiding the most dangerous opposition that was out there. You cannot refute the fact that he never beat a lineal, unified, or undisputed champion, you cannot refute the fact that he did everything he could to avoid the big fights by pricing himself out and refusing to travel, and you cannot refute the fact that in-between Toney and Tarver he fought nothing but bums and has-beens. You are a disgrace and there is a reason you do not post in the general anymore, because everyone here thinks you are a pompous and deluded fool in the same vein as Lance Uttercunt. Now take your disgraceful British Glass out of this thread, you eggheaded ****.hi: No, there wasn't, you didn't see those fights if you think so.
Yeah, he's fought nobody... ...Well, except for the only 2 fighters that campaigned in his respective weight divisions that can be classed as 1st ballot hall of famers.... ...but other than that... atsch
reggie johnson a can? julio gonzalez a can? virgil hill a can? Lou Del Valle a can? McCallum? Tarver? Ruiz? just because you have no idea how good some of these guys were he beat, and not only beat but shut out or knocked , doesnt make them "cans" the guy in your avatar resume is a pretty laughable one considering risks or big fights
I'm a fan of Roy and I enjoyed watching him fight, but that doesn't mean I am going to ignore the reality. Roys top 3 wins 1. A green Bhop 2. A weight drained James Toney 3. John Ruiz, possibly the wost fighter ever to gain a HW title. The rest were B level fighters at best. McCallum was what, 40-42 years old and roy struggled with him.
Excuses. James is my favorite fighter but its not roys problem Bhop was green? Okay... At the end of the day he have them both a loss no matter what the excuse.
Roy in his prime fought competition every bit as good as the clowns today, and he COMPLETELY outclassed them round after round. Total domination. There's not a single fighter today who can claim the same. Everyone has their Castillo, their Marquez, their Brewster, their Macklin, etc. But not Roy. The closest anyone came was Griffin, and he was on his way out in the first fight anyways.
1.B-Hop was older and had more fights....in any case, he's outclassed. 2.Yeah, because Roy drained him....and that win is still better than 95% of most great fighter's careers. 3. Ruiz isn't nearly as bad as Roy haters try to make him seem. He has wins over Rahman and Holyfield. He's not a great HW, but he's not a bad one either. Roy started at ****ing 154 and went up and beat him. It's a tremendous accomplishment.
