Thread: Dear Bernard and Roy....

Fuck you both !

1st Roy- I defended you when everyone on here was saying you had no chance and were shot. Being a die hard life long fan, I always hope against hope that one of my favorite fighters could pull off the upset. But when you do not believe in yourself and you WON'T THROW ANY PUNCHES, then um...you can't win. So Fuck You for that non-effort and for hyping the fight and lying to everyone to sell the fight.

2nd Bernard-You have always been one of my favorite fighters as well. I admire you for your toughness and great boxing skills and strategy. Now you have put on some faking and exaggerations before...against Echols the second time...and Calzaghe late in the fight. But this was a NEW LOW. What a joke! I've been slapped harder in the back of the head than you were tonight! And you acted like you got hit by a prime Mike Tyson!

Terrible, Terrible fight...

Just HORRIBLE.

Good thing they only show this fight once huh? I'm pretty freaking amazed Roy lasted the distance to be honest.

I have always wondered how a Hopkins-Toney fight would have gone (prime for prime of course)

3 things I expect to hear in the coming days

Bernard Hopkins: You see the way I punished him? If this was 15 rounds like before I would of killed him

Roy Jones: Them delays when he was faking took me out my rhythm. I would of had him if not for that.

Both: Bernard Hopkins-Roy Jones 3 must happen now

Surely one of the worst fights we will see this year. Jones is so gun shy when up against an opponent that poses a threat and Hopkins has increasingly become an actor looking to buy more time. I don't think there is any way these two can justify PPV ever again.....unless Hopkins is serious about wanting to get knocked out at HW.

No. No they do not deserve any more of our money the bastards.

Jones pulled the same crap he did against Tarver in the 3rd fight, he would not throw any punches !

And its so frustrating becus this is the worst I've seen Hopkins look in ages, and Tarver looked terrible in the 3rd fight with Roy as well, I mean Roy could have won both fights if he hadn't punked out and been so damn gun shy !

And Bernard really does have a future in Hollywood after this little display tonight...

Yeah, BHop needs to leaving the acting alone. It was terrible, he was terrible, Roy was terrible, and the whole fight was a terrible sham.

54-7. way to squander what was one of the nicest sheet of all time

Well compared to his peers 54-7 isn't all bad

Ray Robinson 173-19-3
Archie Moore 185-23-11

In fact RJJ's record is damn near identical to Bob Foster's 56-8-1

True but when you think about it, RJJ in his prime would of beaten all the fighters he's lost to, quite comfortably IMO. So thats what makes it frustrating to me being a RJJ fan and all.

Where as Bob Foster's losses were at Heavyweight, when he was too small to compete against fighters like Frazier, Ali.

You can say that about Ray Robinson and Archie Moore (bar the Ali and Marciano fights) as well.

Ezzard Charles a GREAT fighter had a kind of poor record 93-25-1
