    Default Never seen the HBO version of Lewis Holyfield just found this clip of RJJ afterwards

    Gotta love Roy for speaking his mind. I always liked him as a commentator and I hope he gets back in there once he retires.

    I think the best part was the look Roy had on his face once he finished talking. He was PISSED!

    Excellent stuff from Roy. No point pissing about and mincing your words, telling the truth is what makes a great commentator/analyst who the fans can respect.

    I was never a huge fan of Roy as a fighter, but I always thought he was a very good commentator on HBO. He really knew how to analyze a fight, and he had no problem criticizing fighters, promoters, judges, etc.

    Fair play to jones . He called it like everyone else saw it. I remember staying up to 5am to watch this fight and i was nearly physically sick when the draw was given

    I still remember that fight, was 12 at the time and I still feel the same injustice now when I watch footage of the fight as I did then. Thank god he won the rematch. First time I've seen that RJJ interview, not often you get guys saying it as it is.

    In the last year and 1/2, since I started following professional boxing fervently, I've seen this same situation play over and over. You could pretty much run this interview in about 1 out of 4 fights and just switch the names. It's discouraging.

    Professional boxing needs one governing body, badly. Do I want it in the hands of Senator McCain, or government? No, not really, just handing it off to more crooks. But I believe he has the right idea.

    As bad a decision that was Holyfield just nicked the second fight but no way on earth he was going to get it after the first rip off.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I remember watching the fight and the crowd reaction after the decision was announced said it all, Lennox was shafted and like Roy said whenever King is involved you have to expect something like this

    What a lieing SOB Jones is LOL He whined like a baby when he was robbed in Seoul. He made his career out of that robbery more so than if he'd won gold. He refused to ever fight abroad "in case he got robbed again" lol One thing he did get right was that Lennox did get robbed and still acted like a man.
    The worse part about this scenario is that Eugenia Williams, the blind or corrupt judge you choose which, gave the fight to Evander is STILL poluting ringsides as a judge. She now hides under the name Gene Williams though

    Agreed he was blatently robbed but so were many others, but they didnt bleat whine and cry like Jones did. His being robbed of gold brought him more fame than if he'd actually won gold. Of course if he'd got the gold he wouldnt have the excuse not to fight away from home country.
    Has he ever fought outside the U.S?? Nah he stayed here and fought postmen and garbage collectors while ducking his real contenders
