    I don't see what the problem is, I've thought about this and he's got his legacy, he was so good that it doesn't matter what he does now, people will remember him in his prime.

    I mean he's fighting like once a year, against guys who are decent in their domestic scenes.

    What's wrong with that? I mean, depending which source you believe, his net worth seems to be between $20 million to as high as $45 million.

    So you've got to assume money is not why he is fighting because he ain't getting shit from these fights.

    Let the guy enjoy his hobby.

    Agreed.

    I noticed this as well after checking boxrec. Roy has been fighting once a year against guys he knows he can beat and reliving his glory days in places that are very happy to have him perform.

    He's 45 or so now. He's not getting hurt. Let him have his fun at this point.

    Oh, it's definitely money. He owes the IRS millions.

    Just because you owe money doesn't make you broke, reliable sources say he's worth $45 million.

    That's a huge leap to just guess or make up.

    Like I said because you owe money doesn't mean you're broke, I owe my brother £10, which I have, I just haven't given him it yet!

    Even though Roy is fighting non-world class competition, I think most people worry that his punch resistance is so bad that one of these guys can catch him solid and cause serious damage. That is what I worry about. Remember him vs. Ledvedev? Roy was doing ok n became exhausted late and suffered a horrific knockout. I would like to see him quit n stay healthy.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
