Sorry but I got Bivol :hubie:


Roy was invincible at 160 and 168. But at 175, he was still elite, but he could definitely be touched

That's pretty accurate.

Roy is that guy, but you're right, it was at different weights.

Roy had a low punch output per round too, Bivol racks up the punches most rounds and is defensively responsible. Judges going to give it to Bivol if Roy fights in power punch/spurts.

You're buggin bro lol. You're saying Bivol could beat the 175lbs version of Roy? Maybe after Roy ruined himself by coming down from heavyweight. If this isn't some recency bias bro lol

There's no way in HELL Bivol beats the the Roy Jones Jr. from the late 90's into 2001/02; especially the version that got Virgil Hill out with 1 shot or the version that made former champ Reggie Johnson look like a sparring partner. There's no way in hell Bivol even tries to throw as many punches as he usually does because of the awkwardness, footwork, speed, & the counters that would be flying back at him he wouldn't be able to prepare for

We've seen what Roy did to pressure fighters in his prime. There's no boxer living or past that would prepare Bivol for what Roy brought to the table lol

im good on those type of posts unless i see something incredibly blasphemous to me like when people had the nerve to compare deontay wilder to mike tyson :heh:
Yeah that's pretty damn bad to the point where I probably wouldn't respond because it's so ridiculous lol

Bivol is a good fighter for this era but he's not fuking with Roy in the late 90's
