    They refused to travel overseas to fight him as well so it goes both ways.

    Sergio Martinez, he doesn't even have a future hof'er on his résumé, lets see...1 & 1 with Paul Williams, Kelly Pavlik and Chavez Jr. Not impressive at all...

    It's not like that brother...I always respected Roy but he actually has part time cops & taxi drivers on his resume man... this thread isn't even about Roy.
