So much has changed in that time..it's hard to even imagine how JJ would go about it considering he couldn't grab on to Roy and muscle him around..couldn't use his vast array of tricks up close..if he had him down and in trouble he couldn't jump on him straight away..have his size almost taken entirely out the equation as he couldn't get all ghetto on Roy..especially if Nady was reffing.

Maybe we can meet somewhere in the middle...8 ounce gloves from the 60's era, with 60's interpretations of the rules...Jack can get away with a bit more but Roy will still have the protection of from most things Jack used to get up to.
