    Wow...you got me there Jack. I would have seen Trinidad against a tomato can, but he retires every time he loses.

    Jones legs have been gone a long time. But you analyzed NOTHING about Trinidad. You assume he can fight well at 170, you assume he hasn't lost anything, you assume that he will carry his power, etc.

    tito won't come in at 170 he will come in around 167 and weigh around 171 fight night... about 5 lbs more than what he weighed for the hopkins fight in 2001 when he weighed in at 157 and weigh 165 fight night ..

    tito doesn't balloon up 15 lbs after his weigh inns like cotto and these other guys

    So you're saying he will be signifigantly smaller than Jones on fight night? So that further emphasizes the problem that he may not have the power to deal with Jones.

    You have no idea how he Tito will look at this weight and he has been inactive for years.

    You're so witty Jack. This would be funnier if you hadn't said it 15 other times.

    Damn.....I didn't know being on the ropes meant you were in trouble now. Call the press!

    You keep talking about Jones weaknesses. Like I said, you need to analyze the whole fight, not just the part that supports your opinion.

    You're right, you shouldn't compare small MW to LHW's in strength.

    right Kg, and for the motst part of that fight Jones boxed in the center of the ring. He went to the ropes yes, but he actually moved way more in that fight. in the hanshaw fight though I personally wish he would spin to his right when he backs up, but he blocked most of hanshaw shots and fought effectively off the ropes, and when in the middle of the ring he out landed hanshaw easily. See the problem is people look at RJ now, and because he not dancing and making people look like idiots in the ring anymore, they say that hes shot etc. WHat person that when there in their 20's early 30's can do the same things they use to do in their l8 30's?
    Peoples game plans change as they get older because their bodies cant do wat they once did when their 20 yrs old.
    take basketball for instance the older you get, your game has to change or you wont b effective nomore.
    Kobe bryant game has changed since he 1st came in the league. Jordan had to change his game when he got older b/c his body couldnt do wat he once did in his early 20's. Same thing here RJ is looking better in his last 2 fights that in the 2 preceding that, and just because he doesnt look like a 1997 RJ's people say hes shot. Give him a break. He says if he losses a fight he is out, but4 right now while he is winning give him a break. Hes fightin Tito come january if he wins we will jus wait and see who is next.

    Against a swarming, constant pressure fighter who knows how to punch and finish....that is precisely what it means. Jones isn't Ali, he is not particularly effective fighting off the ropes. Analyze the whole fight? Ok, Tito whether smaller or not, inactive or not, is on a COMPLETELY different level than the guys jones has been facing and they have had moments against him.
