I started off by saying that roy is past his prime and at 38 I dont think that anyone even roy himself would
dispute that. When I said I can see him getting better I dont mean roy could ever reach that level that he
once boxed at, but in his first fight in a year with a good fighter(again like mentioned earlier not a top-level prize
fighter but definitely a worthy fighter) he showed glimpses of his former self particularly with his handspeed and his
ring generalship lets be honest even when he was on the ropes he was never in any real trouble in this fight, my
concern comes with a top-level fighter being up against the ropes like that he could have got into trouble and thats
why a few fights before taking on a big fight makes sense but yeh like adamgb said

As usual he looked like he could of done a lot more than he did but still won comfortably...
and thats why im saying that he can get better because he showed that he has still got that something
will he be as good as he used to be? you would have to say highly unlikely bordering on impossible but roy IMO
with a few more fights and at his age he is not going to want to wait too long could give the light heavy and the
middle's something to think about...

How I wish roy could have developed a jab, just to control things instead of relying on countering and firing power
punches, I mean obvously he is good at it and at one time great but with the passing of time, reflexes and timing
start to disappear gradually, and I think his major pitfall more then anything else has been the lack of an effective jab.
