Why does he have to keep doing this..? He could have cemented his place in history totally as a virtually undefeated fighter...

But nnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

He just keeps fighting..! 3 straight losses, and now he's going up against some cat tomorrow that is hungry to make RJJ taste the canvas again....Roy is 37, and his skills have dimished so fast it ain't even funny...He hasn't fought in 10 months...Man WTF..?

So sad...

Boxing is the one sport, more than any other, where the people just never learn when it's time to hang them up. Why does he want to keep hurting his reputation, one that he worked so hard to build?

Does he think if he wins this fight...he'll go out on top? It's not going to happen that way.....he'll be known as a great fighter who never knew when to hang the gloves up for good...

Lots of money in a relatively short time....plus boxers NEVER want to admit that there is someone better out there.

10,000 blows to the noggin tend to diminish one's reasoning skill's.

I guess that means he won't be hanging up the gloves any time soon...

That's what I said.....even if he pulls out a victory.....I don't see how it helps it....He's still 37....and still fighting a few fights too many...win or lose.
