Roy was offered a 50/50 split for an HBO date with 24/7 against Joe Calzaghe. This is a very marketable fight and Roy is getting a god sent gift because Joe is his own agent, he just split up with Warren... so he's gotta go negotiate himself and clear all the business BS. (ie. he's got other things to worry about other than getting in shape) If Roy ever wins another huge fight, this is the one. If it doesn't happen in his fight with Joe, it ain't happening... Business and career-wise this was the best move for Roy without a doubt.
And I think Roy will turn the clock around one last time.:yep The legend deserves to retire with a Joe Calzaghe win.
