I know Roy would be overwhelming favourite, but think of Herol at his slippery best and if your picking Roy, how quickly does he solve the puzzle?
Jones stops him in the 2nd half of the fight after the fight being close in first 6 rounds. Jones didn't always have it easy vs Southpaws he was dropped vs Del Valle, Harding gave him some trouble early on. So as I said I'd expect Graham to be tricky for Jones early on until he finally catches up to Graham, it would probably be a very cautious affair with both men looking to counter punch.
I agree. Herol's quick reflexes and caginess give him enough respect from Jones early, would be a lot of nip and tuck both flashing fast defense and footwork, nothing clean landing. But with Herol having a disadvantage in basically every fight metric (punching power, hand speed, foot speed, boxing IQ, use of the jab and reactive speed) Jones takes over probably with a stoppage middle to late rounds. Depends on Jones temperament, at times he seemed to enjoy just out-boxing and out-speeding opponents going the distance. Other times he was in competitor mode looking to finish and damage but this wasn't as often.
Agreed. There are more than 1 atg lightheavies that take Jones out. He wasn't quite the same fighter at 175 as he was at 160 or 168.
