    roy was scared of hopkins ? Lol roy was the pfp king back then as a lightheavy while hopkins was coming off of his biggest victory against a former welterweight in tito.why would roy be afraid? Thats silly.


    Considering the circumstances, a 60-40 in favor of roy was more than reasonable. On top of that, he had already beaten hops so hops needed the rematch more than he did.

    Roy had options while hopkins' options were limited at the time. So who loks more scared?

    Hops turned down the good offer for a reason.

    A former welterweight who moved to middleweight and was the favorite to win, right?
    Roy knew he didnt have the technical ability to beat hops, he knew hops was a different animal than when he last fought him and he wasnt a low tier light heavyweight who no one ever heard of like all of Roys opponents, he was the undisputed Middleweight champ who would have moved up and taken Roy to a place he never been to. Hopkins doesnt care about the money he cares about his pride and he would have avenged that loss in 2002 instead of waiting for roy to get desperate and wait all those years.
