Steve Collins trying to confront RJJ, post-fight '99

That's was an awesome blast from the past!

 

hahhaha he totally ignored him

 

fight should have been made in '96. '99 definitely wouldn't have been a good idea for Collins coming off a two year retirement, he would have gotten obliterated.

 

Not really, didn't you notice he started talking louder and faster to try and drown him out?

I agree with Commando, during that time period Collins was done. He tried a come back and blacked out during sparring. RJJ never reliezed that Collins was perfect for him at that time, or maybe he did and was decent about it?

 

My favorite part of the video though is Roy ranting in the background of Larry Merchant, with Larry signing off "Tonight we brought you junk!"

 

A flashback to when boxing had really charismatic stars like RJJ, not some flat bores like Wlad or Pac or dull wannabe thugs like Mayweather..

At the beginning: Roy 'yeah I have a couple fights left' - if only he knew...

And I love Larry Merchant for not being afraid to ask unconfortable questions and to tell it just like it is: 'tonight we brought you junk!'

 

That was funny seeing Roy going off in the background

 

its a pity RJJ never fought any of Benn, Collins or Eubank. They would of been decent scraps.....

 

Collins was coming back to fight Jones after this, they had agreed provisionally but got knocked out by Eastman in sparring so decided against it

 

Merchant was class!

RJJ resume really is garbage, great fighter just never fought the good fights!

 

Never seen that before.

Roy states he'll fight anyone, then when Collins pops into the ring completely ignores him, classic!

 

Funny for all those people who say Roy fought bums if you look at the list of guys they showed for Jones to fight he beat all of them with the exception of DM ..
