    Jones, probably by late stoppage in a fight he should dominate.

    A fighter who struggled with Leslie Stewart at 175, is not going to be competitive with a 175lbs RJJ.

    Moorer was fun but limited at 175, he had potential, but was also a virtual novice.

    Jones via Dec


    Moorer would look to counter, he just may not have the speed to do it.

    Jones fights cautiously and wins by wide UD.

    Moorer had a glossy record at 175, but his opposition there made RJJ's look brilliant by comparison.
