    Roy gave an interview to ESPN where he explained the accusation in detail. If you want to watch go to http://espn.go.com/boxing/.

    For those who dont here is a bit of what he said:

    "They let the guy wrap his hands with a cast and he hit me behind the head"

    "If the ref would have left me alone I would have spanked him"

    "We took the box away from over there. He wrapped his hands with gauze that came out of a box. It says clearly on the box that it has adhesive on it. The adhesives on a gauze is not allowed in any form of boxing. You cannot use gauze with adhesive on it. You wrap your hands two hours early with a gauze that has adhesive on it and you let it get a little bit wet and you got a cast basically"

    "It aint no accusations its fact"

    "We are pursuing it but you have to remember this didnt happen in this country. Its a little more difficult to pursue it because they dont want to make their country look bad"

    I hope B-Hop kicks his backside badly. After the Sydney debarcle, RJJ is not deserved of another money fight, unless it's against Green to fullfill the return clause in the contract.

    Are you dumb enough to believe it????

    .. You must be familiar with the tape, as it's used in Rugby, AFL, and all sports for wrapping ankles, hands, feet, etc in Australian sport.. Does it have setting qualities when wet??? No. It turns soggy when covered in sweat/water and deteriorates drastically.

    Jones will get stopped against B-Hop and if he doesnt retire after that he is really suffered to much hits to the head.

    For such a great champ to pull that bull**** is weak.

    Especially after 1 round KO against Green.

    I'm not exactly sure what tape was used, but if it's the one that you are talking about then yes it does have setting qualities, after it dries out it is noticeably harder than it was originally and then it deteriorates quickly as you say. If it said it had adhesive on it then.........??

    Everything else he says I know for sure. I don't know if Green would've necessarily known what he was doing, he is dumb as **** but he is also a lowlife neanderthal so maybe he did know?

    Everybody here knows deep down that Roy wasn't getting hit with anything after the illegal punch, I consider that fight a no contest.

    Looking forward to Jones vs Hopkins!! What's Danny Green up to? :lol::lol:
