    Seriously? RJJ would absolutely dominate. Too big too fast too powerful too athletic too damn good. Not many people in history could beat him at middle.

    I'm hard pressed to pick anyone against Jones at that weight. He was so damn talented.

    Anyone who picks Duran is just too in love with Hands of Stone to know Jones would embarass him similar to Leonard.

    As much as I love Duran, this is a mis-match. Roy wins easily.

    Duran was 37 , Jones 24.

    Duran 5 , 7 . Jones 5 , 11

    Duran at the end of his career , Jones at the Begining.

    One question who was the better 37 year old - Duran.

    Jones, easily. Duran was just not as good there, while Jones was one of the best H2H ever seen at that weight.
