Dang. One of the coldest statements I've ever heard. "If you come over here to kill something, be ready to die with it"
PREACH.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Not only was it cold, it was stone cold.
Roy Jones Jr is not to be messed with.
I would die for my dog too. Best friends you’ll ever have.
@@ObjectiveMedia nah I’m not dying for no dog. Your trippin 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Roy a straight gangsta. Face stone cold when speaking on everything. Love it
His face was also stone cold when Tarver and Johnson iced him.
VCGTdunker hating for no reason
@@VCthaGOATdunker lol, good point. Roy acting hard on TV but in the ring cared more about not getting hit than delivering punches.
@KingOfTek First off maybe you shouldn't put words in my mouth, I never called him a coward, those are YOUR words. Second, I would never call anybody willing to step in a ring a coward regardless of their boxing talent. The worst boxer in the world willing to step in the ring is not a coward. Third, it's pretty common knowledge that Jones was greatly impacted by the Gerald McClellan tragedy and became extremely cautious in the ring. Anything else I need to clarify to prevent more ridiculous comments from you.
@KingOfTek Again, please don't tell me what I said when my words are posted. I said "Roy acting hard on TV but in the ring cared more about not getting hit than delivering punches." Roy had a very defensive style and didn't take a lot of chances in the ring, particularly in the later stages of his prime, especially when fighting dangerous fighters. Which, by the way, there's nothing wrong with his style, especially when you have a questionable chin.
Is this a therapy session or interview?! Smh
Roy just cut from that real cloth.
therapy session was EXACTLY what i wondered as well. Very odd line of questioning that seemed to obsess over his father.
That's how real Flawda boys are brought up
The guy in the middle is a pansy.
Like Iron Mike dissecting Boosie.
Ngl I laughed a lil bit reading this comment
Even Fat Joe was forced to lean back.
VLorenzoStone Yeah 👌
Roy should be thankful he never hit joe that day, the terror squad would have shot him right there and then
Liam Cad I know can you imagine? For sure he would’ve riddled with bullets.
@@josueangeles89 the fact he had the balls to confront joe who had about 50 guys with him... that mentality you can't teach, you're born with it
@@liamfoo09 you're right, and if it is learned, that makes you even more badass
Roy Jones was truly fearless. He says these stories with a straight face and I don't doubt a single word.
Plus he was in the Matrix
Roy "Pinball Wizard" Jones Jr
Realized that his father can't change. He loved him but, he have to move away.
He doesn't have a reason to lie ..
he was Fearless alright...a fearless fool... too many brothers dying over words....despicable..
Roy Jones Jr is a OG
228allday Yes
228allday O.G. with a glass jaw, other than that yeah one of the best that ever did it.
BIONIK DIKK You don't hold multiple Boxing titles for 12 years if you have a glass jaw big talker.
Aphoresis
Those 12 years he didnt get his Glass Jaw tested little talker, like Sugar Ray Leonard, Floyd Mayweather, Muhammad Ali, REAL champs, that have been in WARS, and Battle tested, Roy was one of the best, but not a WARRIOR, Warriors get tested, then overcome adversity, go back and watch those greats, before you open your mouth.
BIONIK DIKK srl lost to camacho tko'ed in 5th i think and dont give me he was wayyyyy past prime bottom line he got tko'ed by camacho..
Roy is spot on, a lot of parents do not know how to have a adult relationship with their kids
Soooooo true
You ain't lying happens to everyone even me smh
true that. my daddy tried to have me ride on the back of the truck with my nieces and son. like i was on there level.... i did not think nothing of it till he started peeking out the back window. LOL
@@bosshog9220 wooooooooooow
Awkward. This guy is a living legend and these guys are trying to bring sensitive topics up.
Every time I see one of their interviews, I cringe...
@@morenitascorp9246 they known for this lol
Yeah your right
Word up Dan overstepped some boundaries on this one.
Bruh... my respect for Roy jr just skyrocketed. He a REAL ONE ☝️
Same here. Respect!
Ignorant approach #respect he knew Fat Joe wouldn’t have murdered him because he had an issue with a song.... what’s was to gain Roy Jones Jr headline “Terror Squad killed boxing legend”
An A grade soldier and truth teller.
He reminds me of how I was ready to die, if god willing as an Army Infantryman.
He is one of the greatest boxers ever, and a personal favorite of mine.
@@stevenminix I respect your conviction young man! In your opinion, is what our country has come to since 9/11 worth dying for? Would you put your life in the hands of our current commander-in-chief (or the previous ones) who send soldiers out to die for misguided, misinformed, and sometimes sinister reasons? In your opinion, what does it mean to be a soldier in today's America? The ring they fight in is much more complex than the ring Roy Jones Jr. used to fight in.
In his prime Roy Jones was the pound for pound greatest boxer to ever walk the earth.
when calzaghe beat him, joe was 36 himself and past his prime too. he has never had the recognition for this or beating hopkins, both fights in america. would you agree?
@One Love i did not realise that roy said this. respect to him for that. roy was still a class act thou but theres been a few better pound for pound in my opinion.
Ray Robinson Roberto Duran Harry Greb heck the list goes on. Julio Cesar Chavez. Jones was good and all. But check out Ray Robinson and the men i mentioned before crowning Jones.
@One Love yeah bro. So many greats. A lot of people have no clue of the greats fron 20 30 40n50 100 years ago.
@One Love no doubt. I couldn't stan Leonard. But he brought it and fought all time greats. I love Hagler and his style. Also Carlos Monzon is forgoten by many.
I love Roy Jones Jr even more. Everything he’s sayin is basically about communication with your kids. My father was the same way. Shitty cycle. Thank you Roy for sayin it out loud!
What’s crazy is you can still hear the boy that loves his father in side. Father seem like he raised Roy Jones Right but never established a social relationship with him
Why are you asking about personal family issues on live national t.v? How disrespectful...
Why was he answering those questions about personal family issues? How foolish.
Facts. That was damned disrespectful. From Roy's 1st answer Le Batard should have known to fall back. Roy didn't even trip. There's a ton of other things he could have asked him about. But he kept pressing. I wonder if Le Batard would have done that if Roy was across the table from him.
He answered it
I think he wanted to share his experience. Good interview. Interesting guy. Simple guy.
Im sure the prefice da topics b4 airing.
5:06 for the fat joe
Thanks, JESUS saves
Initially I was looking for this comment but I'm glad it took me a while to find. Thanks anyway fam. Keep up the good work 😂
Thanks
U the real mvp lol
Roy is. Top 2 all time. Greatest no question. He would have being no one just for the. Reason ..he kept on fighting. When he suppose to retire..
Roy about that life......
That whooolleee life lol.
@Tax-bitchass biyatch if was with fat Joe squad i will have jump Roy Jones Jr. because he is a true human wrack machine
Mad 1976 they had knives so he would’ve easily been done after he hit fat joe
@@malikh7761 Yes i know that that what i would have done
After watching this twice, I see how real Roy Jones is. He told the truth, he didn't laugh before he said anything in order to come up with a way to phrase it in his mind. He just spoke what he wanted to say clearly and concisely. That level of bravery is not common so the interviewer had to do a double-take because he can't relate to that fearless mentality. Roy is the greatest.
The Great Wilt [RB] it sucks that the tried to get him to make it more than what it was when he was clearly trying to be respectful to the interviewer by answering the question and fat joe by not saying anything crazy.
You can also see how mean and cold he is. I was the biggest RJ fan until I saw him shake a guy's hand and look away. Very disrespectful
Roy Jones is a good dude!! Humble guy and had an excellent career, gave boxing and fans their money's worth!
callawayproducts listen to his music lolol
I can tell Roy a real one💯 He is straight⏩ forward and don't sugar🍬coat nothing 💯
FACTS
Yeah, when you talk to him, you know that what he is saying is coming straight from the heart.
He represents FLA ALL DAY
Roy jones too dam cool for these cats
They were trying THEIR HARDEST to get him to say some shit about Fat Joe for content and Roy wasn't having it. Fuckin punk ass media.
Big facts
Kalio Spits
Seriously, that interview sucked.
Yep. They got real personal
So what age you become a man and not a g just asking I've been wondering for a while
Middle dude lived a sheltered protected life. He is in disbelief of his story lol.
You see it, right? Had me so annoyed
Seriously, this was painful to watch
He’s from a family of Cuban refugees. I wouldn’t call that sheltered.
@@bullmilk How much do you know about the White Cuban community in Florida?! Because your use of "refugee" is technically accurate, but misleading in giving a true picture of the situation.
Marcelo Flores yep. Out of his depth
I love when fighters are as good in character as they are in the ring. Roy Jones is a Champion among Champions 💖.
Roy is just a REAL brother keeping it REAL!
Bomani Jones looks like he's trying to hypnotize you with his face.
Lmfao!
So true
😂
He always has the most blank, I dont wanna be here expression on his face. 😂
That is THE most accurate comment yet!! Lol
Roy is one solid guy. Completely 💯💯💯
Great boxer and a honest man.Great respect.
roy started getting emotional when talking about his dad...very evident...he's also a very intense person...you know he's not someone to fuck with...not to mention, prime vs prime, could beat any man who ever lived, in his weight class...the power, speed, explosiveness ability to avoid punches, was just incredible...i don;t think many realize how remarkable a fighter he was in his prime...he didn't have good technical skills, so once his speed and explosiveness left and also his ability to take a punch and avoid punches went away, he started to lose....he made up for his lack of technical skills, with the most outrageous skill set the boxing world has ever known....
The man said he was going for the kill at 16 with a straight face...never knew Roy was this serious. Seemed like a jokester but I guess that part of being a fighter..
His father used to torture him.
There's a time when thou shall kill but only in self defense.
Pain hides behind the constant smile.
SOCKALEDES JOHNSON People think cus people laugh and joke that shit is sweet sometimes. Never judge a book by it's cover
Yeah I must have forgot
Roy Jones keeping it💯
I didn’t like how Dan was talking to him and asking questions.
Tony Baker Comedy fr he was being rude
That’s why he is Dan Labastard.
Dan is horrible!!! No celebrity shots ever go on his show! EVER!!!!
Me too.
Dam vultures trying to restart the beef.
@@rioeiokha9653 buh?
Lol
Yeah they over pushed ask one or 2 questions and leave it
Both interviewers rubbed me the wrong way. Trying to get into the psychological thinking of Roy's relationship with his father but not having the compassion or empathy in their questions or dispositions. The baffon at the end asking if u saw fear in fat Joe's eyes is actually trying to get shit started up between Roy and Joe again cuz he could've definitely used a more tactful way to ask how Joe responded. Major ups to Roy for being so blunt and open about these things from the past
Bitch ass move
@@kaleblove7743 I feel u
I caught that dumb ass statement/question. Dan Le Bastard is an idiot. The only thing that I do agree with Trump is, the media is the enemy of the people!
A TRUE FUCKING WARRIOR, RESPECT.
He is by far the nicest, down to earth guy, even with all his success. I met him at show I opened for him when he was putting in work on his rap career. Very sincere and honest man.
The hosts shock and speechlessness has me dying. RJJ was saying the hardest things ever while having a completely deadpan demeanor, and these dudes don't know what to even do with it. lol
Roy has NO fear. Walk right into the middle of the Terror Squad, full of artillery, and barked on Fat Joe. Shows you the respect Roy commands, and shout out to Fat Joe for not allowing that to escalate. Its almost like he saw that Roy came in the middle of the jungle unarmed and like a man came to him, and respected that.
Those people and guns r just for show. What's he supposed to do kill Roy Jones jr.? ...&Jones is a boss!
Owoulda lookatthat! Guns kill people, bruh.
VCthaGOATdunker street dudes do not give a fuck about none of that
Denmark Vesey Actually they care about getting life in prison or the death sentence. 'Street dudes' aren't as badass as you think they are.
VCthaGOATdunker lol
Some yes - but others? No, no they do not...and I am speaking from _practical_ knowledge, not theoretical
This show has the most awkward interviews
It's not awkward it just takes a couple seconds for the stream to get to Roy or bomani that's why there's always a like a moment of silence after everything
He meant awkward as in pathetic Einstein.
Awkward is why I'm here and its entertaining as heck!!
Bad interview Roy should have walked off the set.
@@SuperJd78 mee too!
Long live Roy Jones. I'm so glad I watched most his career. Love his honesty and him telling us his personal life story. Good stuff
Me and Roy are born on the same day and went through the same struggle with our pops😤😤 like he said not my loss that's his loss!
For 8 mins they asked the same 2 questions wtf 😒
That`s what that fat white guy does all the time i`ve seen him interview loads of boxers & he`s always asking the most stupid questions... He asked a boxer a few weeks back "if your glove was a doughnut what would you do lol
Yh but it was more interesting hearing this than the usual routine garbage
@@karlali7155 Why so racist?
@@HughSHay Mateeee.. I`m white dude wtf you talking about haha
@@HughSHay Because I give a description of a person that doesn`t make me racist. I would do the same for a black dude even though I`m white it`s just what he is, that doesn`t make me racist. I`s usually the black guys that complain about this stuff LOL
Two snakessssss failed attemptssss to draw reactionsssss from a legend. Roy is too honest.
Ssssssuck it
bs merchant, I have to agree with you.
Roy Jones is, and apparently always was, ONE CLASSY GENT!
Had he not been, HE WOULD HAVE KNOCKED-HIS-DAD-THE-FU*K-OUT years ago!
I have so much respect for RJJ. He saved his dad’s life by choosing to walk away, and he made short work of these two trolls without losing his temper.
Roy show them .
More like "one interviewer asks intriguing questions that result in very compelling, honest, and insightful answers"
Aside from being one of the greatest boxers, he's also a man of great character. Roy is a real one.
Roy Jones Jr. is one bad dude. Too raw. So calm, collected and confident. One of the best boxers in history, if not, the best.
One or two father questions too many maybe?
Roy always talked about how he wouldn’t be where he is without his dad but wouldn’t be where he is if he kept him around longer than he did. He speaks about it freely. Don’t think they were trying to dig in at Roy or anything but I’d rather hear boxing questions
@NFGSuport Don't agree to interviews if you don't like getting asked questions. Simply as that.
No they were not too many, it’s real Life but I do understand ur concern tho, 👍🏾👊🏾✌🏾🇳🇬🇺🇸
Way tooo many! But He Handled it Well Like A Tru Legend 🌟
??? so the situation with his father didnt mold him into the man and Champ he became ???
Roy used to come into my bar all the time to check out all the strippers, didn't drink but liked to play pinball he was really down to earth and knew my name and always said hello to me when he came in super nice guy!
thats kool as f**k man.
Pinball tho
@@jaywilliams2857 .........OK Mr. Grammar police how about pinball,
lmao you had pinball machines in you strip bar? why lamo
@@louiedangelo3843 .....Ya there was just one, it was really cheesy!!!
That "even Roy Jones was forced to lean back" line was hilarious and I'm a Roy fan.
Always respected Roy Jones Jr and his demeanor in this interview made it even more 💯!
In his prime, best boxer of all time pound for pound...not even close...
Straight facts
In his prime he pick a lot of his fights and some fights wasn't even top 10 in his weight. Hall of Famer but Overrated
@@itsdsworld209 if you knew the politics of boxing you would know alot of boxers pick their fights. You couldn't beat him right now so what's your point foo?
illusive_nezzy88 I said he is a Hall of Famer. I guess you have a crush all booty tickled lol
LOL na sugar ray Robinson is the pound for pound king 💯
I was going for the kill...everybody quiet lmao 🤣
Naw, brotha was cool, his role was to pick up the pace in case the convo goes off track.
Only, the convo didn't get off track it simply stopped for a few seconds.
Not on the bruh, that one.
They got silent for real.
Crickets chirping
Bomantis voice cracked. He was terrified hahaha
They got what they asked for
I feel Jr 1000% on what he said about his father.
just make up for it with your own kids, thats what ive done and now me and my daughter have a fantastic relationship
Roy calm and collected. Homie with the beard trying to poke over and over again about personal issues and get a rise out of him. Dude gonna get 3 pieced and soda one of these days
Won't even take a 3 pc and a soda. One soda (pop) is all it takes. Dude has issues. Seems like he does "cowardly" things. Real people who will take on anybody don't really have fear like others have. He is one reason why some people don't watch this show. Some people are annoying as interviewers. One thing to go over the issue to help clarify things to help people become better human beings but he just seemed dumbfounded.
@@360combat5 💯
He is the classic black guy that sides with the white guys
He just don't get it, wasn't raised that way, you tendin to know, tendin like you got that Roy Jones killer DNA, but Roy had it no matter if it was against the #2 in the world with gloves on, or a G with heat
🥊😂 true storayyy
This is the most I've ever heard Roy elaborate on his relationship with his father. I found that part fascinating.
One of the greatest God giving talented fighters of all time
Anybody can lose a fight. Roy jones is a dangerous man! Couldnt even imagine him without gloves.
oh yes.
Dude is a legend and did what few men could even after he took L's late in his career boxing is a young man's sport for him to even be considered as an opponent for elite up and comers is saying something how long did you think the man was gonna stay on top
@@vincelosito215 in bare knuckles, Roy would destroy just about anyone... And he could make it as ugly as he wanted it to be. However, in the world of MMA, Roy would get fucked up badly. Assuming he failed to learn the intricate details of the clinch game, wrestling, jiu jitsu, muay Thai style kickboxing, Dutch style kickboxing, and a little tae kwon do (punching, kicking, & distancing w/ maybe a little judo or hapkido mixed in along the way is the way my Master taught it. (I love hapkido, btw.) or even dabble in learning a good hard style of karate like tang soo do, then I'm afraid it would be curtains for Roy, pretty quickly too. Though there is no doubt in my mind that Roy Jones, Jr would fight a top MMA fighter in the streets of His hometown of Pensacola, FL or in the Octagon at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. That's a true to life, dyed in wool 'tuff guy' coming to you right there in Roy Jones Jr. Approach with great caution 😈😳🤛🤕💪😠🥋. I've heard he's a very nice guy, but I still wouldn't take my chances:) or raise any conversational topics that might possibly piss him off. The dude is psychotic... Doesn't care if he dies & probably doesn't care if you do either. I'll never forget watching him get ROBBED of the gold medal by the Korean fighter in the Olympics in the worst decision I've ever seen in boxing. Well, I don't blame the Korean fighter for the piss poor decision, I do, however, blame the shitty, blind judges. Wtf fight were the watching 👀?
kpf63954 That’s assuming that in the world of MMA, he fought a guy that has mastered multiple disciplines, and therefore has the ability to outmatch an elite boxer, which is actually very rare in Major MMA promotions to this date. Most top guys excel in one department, can maybe do some good in other disciplines, but for the most part do not have a balanced skill set where all their attributes are elite level. Jon Jones for example has excellent kickboxing and wrestling, but lacks basic standup boxing technique, Conor McGregor has excellent stand up abilities, but lacks in wrestling, stamina, and frankly everything else, Khabib is a monster wrestler, but his overall striking ability is comparable to an amateur. I’d say Roy’s chances against an MMA fighter is a little better than what you’re talking about. That’s not to say if you put him against say Wanderlei/Anderson Silva, Fedor, or Mirko Cro Cop, then sure he’d be toast, but I do believe that elite/god tier level boxers are definitely thrown under the bridge far too often in the grand scheme of things.
I respect this man for speaking honest, he is so straight forward and tells it like it is
I love how Bomani understood everything Roy was talking bout.
Still my fave boxer of all time, and I bet he's a pretty great man to know.
All I'm going to say is I grew up watching RJ and in his PRIME HE WAS POUND FOR POUND THE BADDEST MAN ON THE PLANET
He was, and I was a huge fan too but he fucked it. Too many fights and losses that should not have happened.
@@nomoremrniceguy368 Now where he messed up was after fighting John Ruiz he had to drop alot weight for Tarver! He should of fought Tarver before Ruiz! I saw Jones become a Monster against Ruiz! Jones beat his ass the whole fight! Tarver took advantage of knowing Jones would be very weak! Losing muscle and weight like that father time threw a brick wall at RJ! And I agree it was very upsetting to see him take loses like he did!
Joey Thornton but yet never really beat any big names outside of James Toney and a very green Bernard Hopkins early in his career. I guess he would look like the best when your mowing through tomato cans most of your career. Pound for pound the greatest of all time was Sugar Ray Robinson
Much Respect to Roy Jones Jr!! Just hated to see his boxing career hit some bumps at the end. Still pound for pound one of the best to ever step in the ring. Definite Hall of Fame boxer.
4:53 "when you do something wrong, there are consequences."
Lolol
Roy Jones is a beast! Respect and big shout out from Argentina!!
Straight up OG son.
Roy don’t play that shit.
This is one of the worst interviews I've ever seen. Way to personal for ESPN!!
I like how Roy Jones Jr answered all questions during this interview. He was really cool!!
Say what you want about Bomani and Dan, some of their interviews are really deep and helped me change some of my previous opinions about certain people. If you don't believe me, watch the Stephen Jackson one.
Justin Sitjar Probably the best one ive seen. I always liked Capt Jack and that interview made me like em more
Colin Joffrion captain jack is the man!!!
Justin Sitjar ur a follower & gay

Never thought about it that way, but you're right.
@@shawnr7730 that's a whack rationale buddy, unless someone is trying to harm your family that's a stupid reason to die over.
Fat joe confirmed this he even said someone from Roy’s camp was screaming just give to him champ 😂😂😂
the dude who sang chopper style
Still laughing at this. I could imagine that dude yelling in the back saying that 😂😂
Lol
Amazing you overcame all that, true inspiration Roy. Stupid personal Qs, but led to an incredible insight on your life. Loved watching you
That's why he's my favorite boxer, the authenticity and realness
Would y'all get out his personal business with his old man damn that went on too long
They are just ridiculous.
It sure did!
Hahahaha for real!!!
Roy is my favorite boxer of all time
illusive_nezzy88 me too!!
A boxing legend with consciousness and awareness who learned life lessons
"Roy, please dont knock me out"
One word for Roy Jones .Gladiator!
Bro, gladiators didn't fight til death dats a lie which has been repeated again n again. Do your research, my dude. And Roy wasnt willing to die he's over exaggerating.
Roy Jones jr. is a soldier and soldiers don't fear death.. These two reporters could never understand that.
@HEAT1996 Throughout history there have always been soldiers that didn't fear death. That didn't make them crazy, just meant that they found something worth dying for.. The Japanese Kamikazze from World War 2 come to mind.
Pride cometh before the fall. Those types usually don't last too long.
Roys dad was right. The dog attacked the sister and Roy wasn't going to put the dog down. His father did what Roy couldn't do. I would have shot his dog too.
Brolick Scholar But to come on his property to do that tho without talking to Roy first?
Talking is pointless. When a dog attacks a human especially family and in particular my daughter! It's gotta go. Fuck what my son says. I've lived out back in the country too. It's just the way it goes. I'm the Daddy. Roy knew better than to challenge his father. That's why he still respectshis dad now. His daddy didn't take NO shit! Roy can talk all the shit he wants but he knows...... Daddy is Daddy!
God, I have so much respect for Roy Jones after hearing what he said about his relationship with his father.
This is a real man.
One of my favorite boxers of all time. Salute Roy Jones jr.
Lmao at the awkward moment of silence at 4:01
Those hosts had no idea what they were in for. Reminds of Mike Myers and Chris Tucker when Kanye said "George Bush does not care about black people"
Just a Kid he was going for the kill
Just a Kid bomani's face kills me bruh.. this man didnt flinch
Just a Kid
LOL!! ... I remember that and it was hilarious and embarrassing! I like how he and Mike Tyson give interviews. They’re real and calm and never give in to hyperbole.
😂😂😂😂😂
Just feedback lag
Damn Roy, much respect bro
Roy such a great guy and representation of boxing. He made fights interesting on HBO with his knowledge. Commentators for the most part should have a history in the sport. He could tell you what every boxer was doing as far as strategy, fatigue and on and on.
I feel Roy, my pops just like his.
Get these two back into journalism school. Total upgrade needed.*
Roy i s nothing to fuck with respect Roy you a Réal brother bless keepi doin ypu
For real
Seriously. Who are they supposed to be, shrinks? How many questions you gonna ask the man about his father? Damn.
Yeah it’s quite awkward.
My all time favorite boxer!🙏🐐🥊
I remember seeing Joe talk about this. Joe said "You see those 100 people? None of them are gonna fight you. They're gonna kill you" Then Joe said Roy looked at him at said "So it's only hiphop?" And Joe (in the interview started crackin up cause even after all that, Roy was still ready to go if he didn't get the answer he wanted, lmao.
Joe said Roy don't play and WILL step to you. He said Roy was the only person who ever stepped to him like that. Cause of the whole Terror Squad thing.
Was still pretty messed up of Joe to say something like that if you considered him a friend. You don't throw a rhyme in a song about how ya boy got knocked out.
That's my whole issue with it. If you never met him and said the line then cool. It's like a comedian making fun of you. But if he was technically a friend, then Joe was out of line.
Roy and Joe told similar stories. Always appreciate honestly in the media.
Roy don't play.
Nobody is gonna waste their time trying to kill this dude after a stupid confrontation with Fat Joe
@Tax-bitchass biyatch Fat Joe too smart for that thug shit
I have always been a fan of Roy but this interview just put my fanhood over the top! Watching him get emotional for the final broadcast of HBO Boxing along with Jim Lampley was extremely touching as well...
Right on Roy...im behind you 100 percent...your a real man not a joke or a poser...yes pound for pound greatness in or out da ring... MAHALO'S
Roy's always been a stand up dude! Tough OG!
Damn I wasn't expecting this interview to get this serious lol
Hollis2Hollywood yeah this shit was very awkward ,,, every lead back to killing or dyning
Roy is the F*ckin man!
Blessed*

Ive always liked Roy. Stand up dude an is 100% win loose he has cemented his place to always be the champ!
Roy jones has a alpha male attitude. Some things he said about the way he handle the situation with his father was cold .some people are not even lucky enough to say they had a father in their lives.roy even said his father helped him build a foundation in himself.but in all hard to knock a man who successful and speaks his mind rather hes wrong or right.thats a man right there.
Roy was not cold about his father. What would have been cold is if he killed him, but instead he respectfully walked away. Brutal abuse of one's child continuously makes a parent not worthy of respect and they will have earned whatever response they get from the child, even if tragic. That does not take away any good a parent did however. Roy's father damaged him psychologically, despite his success in boxing.
A person who is willing to kill his dad over a dog shouldn't get praise.
believer from experiences I am saying don't know his life his Dad probably abused the fxck out of him.
No...
He explained it plain and simple... He abused him as a child, he used corporal punishment... And as he grew he decided he wasn't going to let his dad treat him in a manner he wouldn't let a guy off of the street treat him, some before he put hands on him he moved out, out of respect... Who the hell wants to kill their own father
cdubb310 I was under the same circumstances
Very honest and awesome guy! Interviewers judging him but he played it cool! Different times
Yoo I just like this guy men,he's well disciplined and principled... Keep up Roy, mannigga, am one of ur best fan from onset
Bless Bro
Hollup. Roy still fighting!?!?
Roy is my all time favorite boxer. Entertainment at its best. Hated when he lost a step but in his prime he was THAT DUDE. Roy whooped peoples ass...period
+Ryan G I like Roy but, he couldn't touch Sugar Ray Leonard!
H Brewton, II Roys highlights are way better
+H Brewton, II idk man.. I think roy maybe was better but its hard to say
Ryan G maybe so, but you have to consider his opposition. I am a big Roy fan, but after his wins against Hopkins and Toney way back when, it got eh for a while. Probably ducked Dariusz Michalczewski.
Roy I understand you on a really deep level. I can remember my first fist fight with my dad at 13. From then on I feared nothing in life. Which was a blessing and a curse. Child abuse kills a soul. 12 years of my life behinds bars because I couldn't love myself because my family treated me in heinous ways. Jokes on them they are the bad people not me.
Anyone that's abused , you are not alone. Love yourself even when it hurts. There is no closure in abuse. There are bad people and good people no in between.
Frank Gagnon needed to hear dat yo..im 18..my ole boi(dad) say he luv me but da things he did to me made ne question it and its lik my ma was there most of the time and never helped.👌🏾but learned dat im all i got and i will do better as a father💯
This was an awesome interview. Roy's answers were very insightful
My homie for life! Always showed me mad love being a state champion from the same area as me.
