    This fight shoud have happened around Nov.2003,but he fought tarver instead.I think they were in serious negotiations.If the fight would have happened,who wins?John ruiz made roy jones stumble from a right hand in the first round of their fight.If he did that,maybe a left hook by tyson knocks jones out.

    Jones, the weight drop destroyed him at heavy would have still been game for a little while. In the meantime tyson was shot to pieces I take jones in this one.

    I could see Jones doing a number on Tyson until about about the 5th round, but then Tyson would catch him and put Roy to sleep

    Tyson, he would have caught him sooner or later, then it's sleepy time.

    Is this serious? Tyson would have been motivated enough to train for at least 3 rounds and would have caught Roy no problem. KO inside 2 if Roy is fast enough to avoid any conflict in the first.

    Even the Tyson that fought Danny Williams would have destroyed Jones. Jones has no Chin even an old faded shop worn Tyson would have brutally KOed him. Jones is a Glass Jawed joke.

    I'd give Roy a real shot because he would have been motivated in 2003. If Tyson was being honest about himself in his documentary then he wouldn't have come into the ring with much training.

    Jones. His mobility and quick jab could frustrate Tyson early, and then he would land harder shots as the fight progressed and Tyson gassed and opened himself more as he got frustrated.

    Tyson, despite being shot, would have KOed RJJ. Caught up to him and KOed the man in brutal fashion. Roy would have been way too scared in that ring.

    Jones UD. Tyson was very slow on his feet by that point and Roy was still lightning fast.
