    But instead he fought Tarver, and no offence to Tarver, but that really sucks, i'd of loved to see those fights.

    He could probably have beaten a shot to pieces Tyson, but he would have lost against Sanders and Lewis...

    Depends on which Sanders shows up, the demotivated one gasses after 4 rounds and can't stand on his feet no longer. So he gets outboxed.
    You're right about the motivated one.

    All Roy had to do was defend his paper WBA title a few times and retire as one of the GOATS...and he didn't. Such a shame.

    Tyson would have destroyed him in Spinks style



    Or gassed out and lose late tko/UD

    But I would put my money on early KO

    We all know that Sanders didn't have good stamina and never was good 12rounded fighter. The question is would Roy survive those first 4 crazy rounds.
