    Excellent thread and a quote i'd like to leave it with...


    "Cant nobody else stop me. Cant nobody else keep me down. You can write that in your book when I die." - Roy Jones Jr.

    You proved that tonight Roy...and shall retire in peace...

    a tear and smile goes out to a boxing hero and legend

    Even when he knew that he was losing he did not resort to spoiling, timewasting or ref conning like another legend that I could name. Class act, the greatest fighter I have seen in my lifetime,(29, been watching boxing for 20 years) and an admirable human being.

    He still showed flashes of his former greatness, picked some excellent shots and had Calzaghe worried early.
