Hey guys just wnat to hear your opinion's on guys who imitated super man Roy Jones style. Do you think it works for them? Style imitatators IMO: Jean Pascal, David Haye, Andre Dirrill, Sergio Martinez, Andre Ward (much more Bhop, but you can see elements if you watch carefully). Please add more fighters if you know any.

It's always good to pick up tricks and elements of a great fighter's game, even if they're unorthodox or as a whole originate from a totally different style and set of attributes. Of the fighters you listed, anything they picked up from Jones Jr. seems to have worked well for them. One just has to make sure they are capable and use them at the appropriate time. Jones was a master of setting up his punches, laying traps, controlling the distance, baiting, and changing the angle; the talk of him having no technique just because he didn't have a conventional guard is nonsense. When studied and imitated at the appropriate time and manner, one can learn a lot from him.
I think Haye has the similar style of Jones with speed and power and have his left hand low but he does it in a bad way.
