Roy Jones Jr for Body By Vi (Video)

by Scott Christ on Oct 3, 2011 1:56 PM EDT in Boxing Video

OK, this is mostly an infomercial so once Roy Jones Jr is gone, you can turn it off if you want to, or else be subjected to the rest of it. I'm neither endorsing or dismissing the product, because I don't know, but watching the Jones segment of this was pretty hilarious to me, so I'm sharing:

Ah ah ah ah AHHHH.

I love things like this. Nothing is better than Oscar De La Hoya and the Skip/Fit, but Roy gave it a shot here. Ah ah ah ah AHHHH. I imagine that unless something awful happens in the ring (and I get the feeling he's going to fade away from active competition very soon), Roy Jones Jr will always be around in some capacity. He works at HBO, which could last forever if he wants it to, and he'll always find weird projects like this because he's got this certain level of celebrity that keeps him in the mix for this stuff.

If I were producing this (I am a video Producer BTW), I would have had a VO say most of the script with footage of Roy working out or something. Then Roy could say the “up for the challenge” line. I definitely would have told him to stop rocking. LOL

How about to stop rubbing his hands together?

When they started talking about the kits, I couldn’t help but think of Uncle Rico in the movie ‘Napoleon Dynamite’ and his “32 piece kit”.

"That was very funny about the old man basketball skills. One is lucky to escape injury when playing against those crafty, crusty sumbitches. And it’s just demoralizing when they demonstrate yet again how to use the backboard from range." - Charlie Custer

his endorsement is terrible.. lol.. extremely scripted.

with that being said, i have taken the body by vi challenge while training for my fist amateur bout – the product works. i was able to drop more then 30lbs in a span of 3 months. if anyone is looking to lose weight or improve their current health, take the challenge. i mean, what do you have to lose?
