    Could the Roy of the Ruiz fight outpoint Joyce? Joyce looked so damn slow vs Zhang, I'm thinking Roy could potshot him to a UD.

    Jones gets KO'd stiff from a light breeze off the first range finding jab that whiffs past his pea head.

    Outrageous to think Jones could beat Joyce.

    Im not so sure about that. The Roy who fought Ruiz would be favored to win.

    Prime Roy Jones was nearly untouchable and certainly a guy whose feet are in cement and throws as slowly as Joyce doesn't touch him.

    Roy by wide UD.

    Man I hate to say it but Jones might have a reasonable chance of hustling for the win here. Joyce is that slow. On the other hand if Jones gets tired in any way or slows down Joyce will fold him in half and eat him for lunch.

    Ruiz would have beaten Joyce quite easily. RJJ wouldn’t even get touched by Joyce lol

    That Roy has an abysmal Glass Jaw? No, we didn’t forget.

    You guys are so reactive. Joyce lost to a huge, monsterous puncher and everyone is ready to throw him under the bus.

    Joyce would beat Jones to a pulp with his volume. Jones has nothing to deter Joyce. Hell, Jones couldn't even get away from Glen Johnson.

    Jones always had a glass jaw. He just didn't get hit a lot.

    Jones would have been favored to beat Joyce in 2003.

    Of course. Joyce was only 17 years old.

    Lol Pretty much this. :D I’d say that constant Michael Myers zombie type pressure would wear Jones down by the 7th or 8th round and one of those clubbing punches would start the beginning of the end for Jones. The follow ups to that would Glen Johnson Roy.

    “YA’LL MUSTA FORGOT” that Joyce does have strength behind those slow shots. Maybe not high shocking impact behind them… but they’re HEAVY with 260lbs of weight behind them. Lol Roid isn’t eating those
