    Lol. He would get KOed in 4 rounds at most.
     
  2. This is a laughable poll. Prime Tyson kills Glass Jaw Roy in the opening 20 seconds of the fight, probably via a pawed rangefinder jab. Jones has no Chin. None.

    Gets viciously knocked out in the 2nd round. Prime Tyson gives any top heavyweight problems. No way a former middleweight lives with Tyson.

    Um, yeah, I see what you're saying about a prime RJJ, but the guy was a 160/168/175 pounder.

    A prime Tyson knocks him out. And probably early at that.

    :lol::patsch
    I think you've watched one to many RJJ highlights.

    On a side note, I dont know if many of you remember, but a lot of Roytards had these same delusions say 8 or so years ago in his pomp. These guys were the equivalent of *******s in the present.

    Prime Tyson is 215ish.....and a prime Roy jones is at 168 IMO....it would be a freakshow...Roy is the better boxer, but the 1989 or 1988 version of Tyson would ko him...

    I got a Jones Avatar for ages, but he isn't even a real cruiserweight, let alone heavyweight. Most of his light heavy weight opponents were already taller than him.
    A prime Jones could frustrate a past it Tyson, but prime Tyson always knocks him out.
