Prime Roy is all wrong for Ward stylistically. Too much speed and athleticism for Andre. Jones Jr wins a decision in a competitive fight. Somewhat similar to the first Hopkins/Jones fight.
:deal I'm a huge Ward fan, but nobody in history beats a prime Roy at SMW. I would have Ward beating any other SMW in history, though.
Ward is a superb fighter, and head and shoulders above the other SMW's now, but Prime Roy Jones.....welll....he was PRIME ROY JONES!
Roy stops him easy Ward is good for now, people don't want to say negative ting but the truth is, Roy stops him easy that just how it be
I'm glad to see that there are informed people in this thread. I expected people to downgrade jones jr. based on this imposter fighting now that keeps fighting a getting KO'd in every other fight. Bravo. Too bad jones didn't retire right after Ruiz.
How do you even prepare for a 168 version of Roy? Big punchers like Nigel Benn and Gerald McClellan could go out and swing big and hopefully land something.. The way Ward fights, I just see no way for him to win.
Prime Roy toys with him. Too much speed, too much athletisism, too much power, too many steroids. :bbb
