    Not sure Roy Jones ever fought someone faster than himself, would be a first.

    What's with all of the Valuev threads today? I think Valuev finds his chin eventually. Roy would have to fight a lot like the way Haye did if he wanted to win. Not impossible that Roy wins, but I think at some point Valuev would land something that would put him to sleep.

    In my opinion, the Ruiz version of Roy would have beaten Valuev easily.

    Haye should have beaten him easily.

    RJJ would have humiliated that slow, unskilled oaf.

    If he employed the 4 corners offense Haye had he could probably win a decision by playing keep away

    I'd make Jones a big favorite. I can't see NV getting the KO, and he sure aint winning on points.

    Valuev was so slow and unskilled it was laughable...old Holyfield beat him and got robbed without a gun
