I like Duran and he was capable to beat some good middleweights up there imo,but Jones would pull off a highlight reel ko that made the Hearns fight look angelic compared to this.
Duran gets folded, Jones is every bit as capable of landing a shot like Hearns, bigger, better and more stupidly gifted than Tommy too, mismatch for my 0.2$.
Duran can't pull this one off in my opinion. Too far away from his natural size. It might work against some MW's but Jones is too fast.
Day before weigh in = RJJ wide UD. Same day weigh in = RJJ may lose it on the scales, if not, it would be an interesting fight.
Roy Jones of UD after a boxing lesson or a late stoppage. Duran was a great champion and the best lightweight ever for many experts, as a middleweight he was good, he gave a tough fight to Hagler and defeated Barkley but Roy Jones in his prime had speed and reflexes out of the ordinary, two great champions like Hopkins and Toney in the middle and super middleweights could not stop him, Manos De Piedra did not have the speed and power at 160 pounds to be able to create problems for a champion like Roy, for me there would have been no story here.
I agree with everybody that is saying wide unanimous decision for Jones, I can't see Duran winning a single round.
