    What happens in a fight between the Jones who fought Ruiz and a prime Holyfield at heavyweight?

    Holy all day. Evander was a legitimate and great heavy. He stops Roy in the mid to late rounds.

    LOL. Evander would stop Glass Jaw Roy Jones in the first 3 rounds. :lol::lol::lol: Evander in his prime was a legit Heavyweight not some hand picked bum like Jones used to always fight.

    Give Jones atleast a LITTLE credit, even if you don't like him. Evander would probably knock Jones out easily if he connected but Jones at his best was not easy to connect on.

    Evander simply had too much intensity, to much chin, too much talent, and too much grit for Roy at heavy.

    The preasure which Ruiz failed to give to Jones would be all too present with Evander and would wear on Jones both physicaly and mentaly.

    Sorry but in their primes Holy knocks Jones head off his shoulder ..As fast as Jones is no one was a better counter puncher at heavy than a prime Holy ..

    Prime Evander by KO, doesn't mean Roy has a glass jaw though.

    I agree here as well, I do agree with wat people are saying, If Holyfield would land a clean hard shot it could b over. Mayb. But I also think that Rj could win the fight.
    Holyfield isnt a tall heavyweight, which would b a little advantage for RJ. I always say that anyone has a punchers chance. Holyfield got power going for him. And Rj has speed that Holyfield would have never seen be4, speed kills. If Rj was able 2 stay on the outside and counter efectively. and put his punches 2gether. IMO I think he might b able 2 pull it off.

    He said the Jones that fought Ruiz.....What happen against Johnson can't be taken into account. It was clearly a different version of Roy.
