How does the RJJ who outpointed Ruiz fare against the Willard who got bombed out by Dempsey? I could see him using his superior speed and reflexes to outbox Willard and ambush him with hard potshots all night long.
From concussion not frustration. Willard didn't belong in a ring in 1919. He's a total mess. Old, rusty and unprepared. The Ruiz that Jones beat is leagues better.
looool thats so disappointing coming from you. Dempsey couldn't KO him, but RJJ does?! Maybe you pulled the trigger too fast on this one... lol
Maybe the sun hits his eyes, he stumbles, and his neck hits a stool like the Million Dollar Baby. You never know
Jones would stop him. Of that I have no doubt. Also, if Roy had jumped out of the ring after the first, I have no doubt he would have been DQ'd.
People who argue that modern fighters were superior to old timers based on size, and then make a pick like Roy Jones over Jess Willard, are essentially hypocrites.
No, it just means that for all these years you've never actually understood what those posters have been arguing. Many of us have consistently pointed out the enormous skill and technique gap between Jess Willard and more modern heavyweights.
