    I got Jones. I would say points, but it could easily be a KO as well.

    Jones Jr blows him right out of the ring.

    Golovkin hasn't proven much yet and he'll like never face a fighter as good as Roy was at middle or any other division. Too big, too powerful, too elusive and too fast. Jones Jr will land at will with that leaky defence of Golovkins and as good as Golovkins chin is Jones jr hit hard enough to take out some durable guys at super middle and below.

    People forget what Roy was like in his prime. There was a reason he was called 'Superman'. Golovin is VERY good but he hasnt fought anybody yet where people are undecided who will win.

    I agree. GGG is hyped but Jones in his prime was something truly special.

    I believe that GGG would put severe pressure on Roid, and I think Roid would have to become very aggressive to keep triple G at bay.

    Roid by KO within the first half of the fight, in a very exciting bout :!:

    This is usually how it goes. Someone with hype comes along and is the greatest. But no way is he legend in the history of boxing right now. Jones was.

    GGG is too hard of a puncher for Roy's Glass Jaw.
