So let me get this straight for all you people saying hopkins. Hopkins was older, had more fights, and was fighting at his best weight. Yet he was too green and Roy was prime?
Roy was green sort of in that fight too. Supposedly he fought that fight with a broken right hand, at least that's what Roy and his trainer said. Said something like it broke in training camp, but Roy went on to fight anyways. Too be honest that performance by Roy was not him at his best, imo. Him at his best = James Tony/Virgil Hill/Paz/Griffin II fights. His toughest fight was not Hopkins. Not sure why people are saying that.
