Roy would beat him widely, but wouldn't be stopping him in the first few rounds, dawsons too good for that
Roy would have beat his ass. We've already seen how much trouble a poor man's RJJ can give Dawson when Pascal beat him. Prime RJJ would either stop Dawson or cruise to a 12 round decision.
Cut it with the Royale "With Cheese" Jones hoopla in 2012....... Jones is totally shot-up like a block of Swiss cheese in 2012..... The older B-Hops has held on to his fountain of youth WAY BETTER than what Roy Jones' prime consisted of... Fact is, Chad Dawson with his height, southpaw stance and hand speed would always trouble B-Hops, even if Hops was a full decade younger and still in his 30s... Styles make fights... Dawson is a bore / bland personality, but a fairly swift boxer with skills... Chad Dawson ain't no ***** at 175... He now has wins over aged, yet still capable dude's like "Tarver and Hopkins." He deserves some credit for Christ sake... SR.BILL
