Roy Jones vs Mike
 
Im wondering what u think would happen if mike tyson fought roy jones jr
I personaly think mike tyson would win becouse rjj Doesnt put his hands up and he likes to duck right. if rjj was ducking right tyson would knock him with a deadly left.

Roy Jones had nothing to make Mike Tyson warry, least alone keep him away. I would expect a similar ending that Michael Spinks experienced.

This has been my view every time this topic has come up, but i later read that Teddy Atlas had similar feelings. Atlas thought that Tyson was done as an elite heavyweight, but that Tyson would easily destroy Jones in a way that would make the public think that he is back to the height of his powers. Atlas thought that Tyson would get another shot a being the best, make some more money, and lose.

I think Jones wins by KO. Tyson is too far gone, and doesnt have the desire to succeed anymore. He retains the punchers chance, obviously, but i dont think he could touch Roy Jones at the moment.

At their best, Tyson would have destroyed Jones within 2 rounds.

Or something like that.

I don't think Jones Jr makes it out of the first round against a good version of Tyson at Heavyweight.

Jones moves well, and he's got faster hands and feet than Tyson. But Tyson would have no respect for Jones's power, and he'd walk him down early.
