    Cept for the fact that Pavlik would take 30 punches to land those 2, and would be out on his feet before he could get those 2 off. Jones by KO.

    If Pavlik had ben around when Jones/Hopkins/Toney were around, Pavlik would be a footnote. He'd be one of those guys we'd slag Jones of for fighting instead of Nigel Benn.

    In My Opinion.

    He would be the MW version of Richard Hall. A good fighter with great power who couldn't beat great fighters. Jones avoided him too....oh wait.

    I like Pavlik and all but hes abit slow and telegraphic with his punches. Hes got an excellent jab though and his length will gime some problems. and of course hes got serious pop. Nonetheless, I dont see RJJ losing unless he gets hit flush which in his prime was pretty rare

    Taylor landed 65% of his power punches, Jones would be around 80%.
    That would have been ****ing funny.

    Wow, even faster than he took care of Taylor? You sound to know what you're talking about.

    I fully agree. So would Taylor. They'd be two strong fighters who would barely be remembered as the years passed, just names on a record.

    We already discussed this potential matchup. Your conclusions mirror our own.

    That's a possibility. Roy would probably move and win on points.
