No other heavyweight wanted to fight him.

He was going to fight Corrie Sanders next(who had just KO'd Wladimer) and Corrie didn't want to fight Roy and vacated the title, and Roy didn't see the honor in fighting a vacant title he said he wanted to beat a champion to truly be a champion(right on Roy!)

So he went to Lennox and Lennox said he was probably gonna be packing it up(retiring)

So he moved down to fight Tarver since no Heavyweight wanted to fight him except probably Byrd but King kept that fight from happening for some reason
