    1)absolutely: moorer's power and stance would cause some problems

    2)that's a fair analysis, i disagree but moorer could possibly stop jones and jones could outpoint him

    i think you're giving moorer to much credit though. He had the talent to give jones a lot of trouble but not the mentality, aggression or fighting spirit. he'd probably get dominated like the rest

    I might be giving Moorer too much credit but he could punch like hell at 175.

    I am not sure he would get "dominated" though if he lost.

    I have never questioned Roy's skills man he had all the offensive attributes a fighter could dream of it just seems at times he was reluctant to showcase the whole arsenal he had for whatever reason. I may hate on Roy but I have never said the guy did not have skills or talent I just wish he would have truely tested himself against everyone that was available to him that is my main gripe with Jones.

    :good

    this is true and i'm right with ya buddy. i love roy as much for what he could have been than for what he was. He is a legitimate legend and probably the best of his era. But he had the potential to be one of the best of all time (ie: top 5 ATG) just never proved it .
