    Will this even happen? Didn't Hopkins v Jones II only sell something like 1000 tickets?

    Roy Jones physically is still a better athlete than 80% of the fighters out there, he isn't slow, and is still quite athletic. But his durability has totally decreased more rapidly than some of his other degraded attributes.

    He would beat someone like Nathan Cleverly in my opinion, because he has not got enough fire power to unearth Roy Jones degraded durability.

    He would hardly drop a around against James Toney. Roy Jones was competitive vs Lebedev, and it was his durability that let him down.

    Roy Jones Junior is shot, but even a shot Roy Jones. If you have not got the fire power to put him away, he can be trick, and give you allot of problems. Which was evident when he fought Bernard Hopkins in the rematch. Even Bernard Hopkins himself, paid homage to Roy Jones STILL above average physical skills.
