    Just trying to get input on this fight. I beleive Roy would have been too much for Trinidad to handle a few years ago but now that they are both a couple of steps slower, Trinidad has a chance i think. any imput? :huh

    Problem is Trinidad is also several steps slower and coming off a very long layoff. Jones at least has stayed somewhat busy. I can't imagine any scenario in which Tito wins this.

    I've always been a huge RJ fan so my opinion of the fight is biased thats why i wanted other feedback. But you guys are in line with what my thoughts of the fight are. RJ by KO?

    RJ can win it by KO. Really depends on how much he has left.All his fighting on now is fumes.Its tragic to watch really.

    As for Tito since he "retired" his spent more time flirting with the sweet science and being ocaxed by King than taking boxing seriously.I doubt he can do much at the higher weight and equally it makes no sense whatsoever with Roy trying to make 170 at this age.His crazy.I wouldnt be surprised if he got KO`ed again.He has no punch resistance at the lower weights.Combine this with his aged reflexes its really not a good recipe.

    RJJ- bigger, faster, more power, more active, more accustomed to the weight class

    Tito- no tune-up fight, inactive for 2 years, fighting at a higher weight class than accustomed.. his only advantage is chin.

    Easy call for me: RJJ

    pretty much sums it up. Even though in the press conferences Tito seemed bigger than RJ, or is it just me:huh

    Jones should be able KO Trinidad, but I think that he will probably end up winning by UD.

    A welterweight moving up to fight a Light Heavyweight - after taking 2 years off.

    Hands down - RJJ.

    Now that's he's fallen from grace - I think he has something to prove - and it will show in this fight. Then he gets KO'ed in his next fight and retire - finally.
