    Jones will have to fight a bit smarter against Tito..I just see Jones keeping his hands down like that will hurt him as it has in the past..And a prime Jones would've finished Hanshaw with a flurry as soon as he got up...Jones will have to be more active and smart to beat Tito..then again Titos had quite a rest

    The handspeed is still there...the footspeed is not.

    Goes to the ropes as much as he always has, just doesn't FIGHT off of the ropes as he did in his prime. Trindad is the wrong guy to pin yourself on the ropes against.

    That being said, I still think he has enough in the tank to beat Trinidad. That may be completely subjective on my part, though. Jones won't use the footwork necessary to beat Trinidad (see Hopkins, DLH) nor does he use his jab enough to beat Trinidad (see DLH, Hopkins, and Wright). If he plans to pot shot his way to victory with this faded version of himself, I'm not 100% sure it will pan out in a victory for him. A legend like Trinidad definitely has a shot here.

    Despite my doubts, I'm aboard the RJJ express.
