    How much amphetamine had Roy been sniffing before this interview?

    He's still retained name value, as mentioned especially in foreign countrys such as Russia, Germany etc, why doesn't he do a Tyson style exhabition tour, make some money and keep his mental capabilitys in tact.

    Is it just me or is Roy slurring a bit here? Ive never noticed it during his commentary, but he sounds a little different here, maybe its just me, or poor audio. Either way, at 43 any damage he takes adds up a lot faster than it would with a young fighter. Every punch does a lot more damage

    That's why he was so keen to fight Danny Green, to win a cruiserweight title, and that ended in tears. Roy is already well overdue to hang them up. He will only end up getting messed up real bad.

    Where will he find a good fighter at cruiser weight? Even as shot as Roy is he can mange to mangle some of the bums at cruiser.

    I was alway a huge fan of Roy back in the day, but he used to drive me crazy not taking the tough fights like Benn, Eubank, Michalzewski, Rocky, Jirov, now he's putting himself out with no hope. And his reason back then was he didn't want to end up like the G-man, now look at the mess he's in.

    Imagine the Roy who beat Ruiz fighting the Toney that beat Jirov (only a month later, both at 200lb). Shame...

    Well, it just might work if they give him as many chances Holy and Ruiz got for their HW belts.
    It's something like "Get a Cruiserweight belt or die trying", wich is a suiting name for his next rap album. :yep
    I'm sorry BE, I had to block you av it made me nauseous :barf
