Roy was walking around in the mid 180s..He put on more like 15 lbs with maybe 10 of that being muscle.
Roy doesn't show many signs of steroid use. He got slower and less powerful as he moved up in weight. The difference in speed between 168 and 175 Roy Jones is quite noticeable.
Damn man... that ending is one of the saddest things I have saw, as far as a boxers career goes -- showing the then and now.... it really shows you something... well at least he was once on top of the world.
It was all about belts back then and a cruiserweight fight at that time meant **** all to Roy, Tarver or HBO...
How do you think RJJ would have done if he didnt lose the weight and stayed at HW, fighting the likes of Lennox Lewis?
mking, This is a great piece of work, thanks. - but the ending is severely compromised by having the speaking part so low (buried in the music, ad MUCH lower than the rest of the video.) - and the same for the commentators, etc in the last few minutes. If it's possible, you should bring this up, then re-post.
