    The real issue with this bout, and a lot of championship bouts, is that champions are forced to defend their titles against "mandatory challengers" who are absolutely unworthy of that distinction. Each sanctioning body ostensibly requires a 'mandatory' defense on an annual basis, but 8 times out of 10 the "mandatory challenger" is a guy who's not even close to providing a competitive match.

    I remember this well. Roy was my guy and i didn't miss a fight. HBO always did a phenomenal job of doing a background preview, showing the training and hyping the fight between the undercard fights. Frazier had a cool story and it made you think he was gonna bring it. He however did not and Roy literally made it look like they pulled the guy out of the crowd 10 minutes before the fight. It was one of the biggest mismatches I've ever seen on HBO.

    Roy at his prime was further above the competition than any other fighter I've ever seen. He's also a solid dude. I live in Pensacola, and we see Roy around town all the time. I used to play basketball with him once or twice a month about 15 years ago. He was ALWAYS nice and generous with any kids that wanted to take a picture, get an autograph, ask him a question, etc. He didn't act stuck up or anything. He came in like one of the guys, hooped with us, never asked for special treatment.

    For me, in their prime..... the 2 greatest boxers to ever walk the earth.... Mike Tyson and Roy Jones Jr.
    No one has been as dominant as those 2 before things began to fall apart for them and the invincibility cloaks wore off.
    But when they were on.... they were fucking on and no body could stop them. But father time and a mix of poor decisions can derail anything no matter how good it is.
