    Let's be honest here, this isn't exactly how it went down.

    Roy said he'd fight Tyson or Lewis, if he was paid $100 million for the fight. This is the oldest trick in the book, it's called "intentionally pricing yourself out of a fight."

    Now I don't blame Roy at all for not wanting to fight Lennox, but let's not make it seem like Lewis is the one who backed down.
    i know...lennox said no one was going pay for a two round fight..implying that he'd kayo jones....besides there wasn't any need for jones to fight lennox....

    are you forgetting that rjj started at 154? ali was an amateur HW...the fact that many wonder how he would have done against the great heavy's of alltime is a subconscious concession to the fact that he's p4p the best boxer ever.....

    Actually Ali was olympic LHW champ. Roy is the the best p4p ever? You state the like an indisputable fact. You don't even have the sense to say "one of" or "arguably." Even that is a stretch. You are serious, Preme-level, nuthugger. That's not even debatable.
