    Takes more than being tall and punching hard to beat Roy... well prime Roy anyway.

    Roy was notoriously hard to hit, especially clean on the chin. If he didn't knock Roy out, he wasn't winning that fight.

    That is the thing I think he could knock him out cold. I would not give Moorer a chance because he was raw but Foster had the class to do it.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Hmmm Moorer would have been interesting at 175 too.

    Yes until he gassed out. The reason why he tried to finish everyone quickly was because he was dying at the weight and the opponents were B rate.

    RJJ is the biggest question mark in the history of the sport. I agree with everyone who mentions who he didn't fight.

    Yet, who could deny the talent of Roy? From his twitch muscles, reflex. Just gifted. It's all speculative, but I can't see anyone coming close to beating the RJJ I knew @ 160,168.

    Too bad he didn't master his craft. If he had, he wouldn't be a better commentator today than he is a boxer.
