Answer 1

Ya'll Must've Forgot

Answer 2

He just wanted to be cool with he's rap, he also played basketball,, he just wanted to be a all around celeberty like many other, and yes Roy Jones has the best skill ever, he's not the greatest because he didnt box in the right era, but I bet my house that he would win over Ray Robinson.

Answer 3

The same reason why mayweather came out with a rap song.

the same reason why football players come out with rap songs also..

just because there black and grew up poor they think they can become rap superstars....

Stick to sports

Answer 4

Roy Jones is one of the greatest boxers but their are fighter that were and are better than him. His rapping as corny as people make it out to be he has proved to be a better rapper than most athletes.

Roy Jones in his prime was probably the most dominate champion since a Larry Holmes. The reason i think he started rapping is the same reason he tried to play basketball,boxing wasn't challenging him. People forget how dominate Roy was he went almost a decade without losing a single round. I don't care how much you love anything when your that dominate at it you need a challenge and that probably what he was looking for.

Answer 5

The same reason Master P played basketball...I personally liked that Body Head Bangerz thing he came out with, it was pretty good.

Answer 6
