Why on earth is it a shame?

He's made his money and is pricing himself out of fights that he knows he has no place being in anyway. He has always had competition. Look down his resume and you will see he beat plenty but also left out so many more!

Jones was good, but he makes me chuckle somewhat sometimes
Its a shame for him and a shame for the fans..

We miss out on seeing him in big fights again.. He still has skill.. But im still uncertain whether he can ever recapture what he had..

So like who did he leave out?

What Nigel Benn? Rematch with Bernard? Benn lost the eliminator to fight roy against Sugar boy malinga, Roy had every right to ask 60 / 40 at the time..

Yeaa roy doesnt have the credentials and the momentum to price himself out and call the shots quite like he used to.. But at the end of the day ..If people want to fight him badly enough he still has the right to ask for what he likes.. Its his problem alone if the fights dont come together

Of course i know Roy beat many good fighters..A hell of alot more then people want to give him credit for.. Mainly because most dont know enough on boxing to know how good come of his competition was..
