    No he doesnt have speed or pop anymore. He did vs. Lacy and Sheika, but that was 4 years ago. he looked awful vs. Glazewski and Alexander. He looked like a C level fighter. He declined rapidly in the last couple years and he is nearly 45. Hes is done and will inevitably get hurt if he continues. Brain damage doesn't often show till years after retirement, so he might not even be in the clear as he it is, but continuing is insane.

    Not to mention hes been on the canvas every time he has fought overseas.

    Was hoping this would come off so we could see Roy get that Glass Jaw shattered yet again. For sure he wants at least one more fight? He needs to go back up to Heavyweight since all his nuthuggers think coming down was his problem. He should be fine if he goes back to Heavyweight right?

    He would get his head knocked off by any HW.

    If him and Ruiz were to have a rematch, I would pick Ruiz by KO.:yep

    Has Roy straightened his finances out? How much does HBO pay him? If hecontinues to get knocked he's going to damage his credibility as a commentator. Stop already Roy!
