    I was dying for someone to take Yo Vinny down a few pegs, and Roy did that admirably. A few fighters become instant favorites of mine after administering epic beatdowns to oversized egos. MAB was one, and Roy is another.
    Why was Vinny Paz on your bad list? He seemed OK.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    One of those outsized egos who thought he was God's Gift. Thought he was better than he really was, when in reality he was just a pug. Got a lot of notoriety from his comeback from injury, which of course is admirable, but just made him the bigger-than-life personality he always thought he was. Yo Vinny was a jerk.... and I thoroughly enjoyed his beating at the hands of RJJ.

    I take it you will not be the first in the queue when his film comes out then?

    Benn v Gent

    So great to hear Reg and Jim the best double act of commentators we ever had on these shores (Ian Darke gets a special mention)
