That wasn't a serious offer. Roy knew there was no chance of him beating Lennox and said something insane and impossible to indicate how insane and impossible making that fight would be.
Where is someone with a spare $100 million when you need one though, right?
If only Bill Gates was a huge Roy/Lennox fan,,,, Roy woulda had to back up his ridiculous offer, and we woulda seen the equivelant of Spud Webb trying to dunk leaping left hooks onto Lennox's 8 foot high head.. (thanks ICB for the reference)
