    Will Trinidad lure Roy Jones into a slugfest? And if so can Jones still win that type of match?

    It sounds like Roy Jones has no doubt that he will KO Trinidad in the 4th, I think he can get caught coming in if he fights a stupid fight how about you?

    No I think Roy's too smart to get lured into a slugfest.

    Wouldnt it be great though. I really dont want to pay 50 bux to just watch two past their prime fighters tachtically box since there really isnt much future for either. I want to see a slugfest and wish the winner good luck since when he wins he is gonna try to take on someone far too good for them....

    God knows what tito is going to do. Slugfest or chess match, there is only one winner in this fight and that is Roy Jones Jr.

    Not sure, but if I was him id lure him into a gay bar and take some provocative photos so Roy dont turn up, cos thats the only way Felix wont lose the fight.

    Roy isn't dumb and he's not Fernando Vargas.

    He'll school tito and knock him out when he feels like it.

    Tito does look kind of fat in his most recent picture. But I hope he can still KO, Jones.

    I hope that "Tito" gets this chance, bacause I know he can hurt Jones. Good analysis!

    The remaining brilliance of Roy Jones boils down to his ability to choose beatable, yet well known, name opponents. Here we are, talking about this fight as if it was important or pertinent. I guess both fighters have a fan base that would pay to watch them force out a crap. Thats about all this fight boils down to. Believe it , Roy will win, he wouldn't have made the fight if he wasn't sure that he would. Not only is Tito no where near his best fighting weight, but his reflexes abandoned him years ago.

    Jones won't get into a slugfest, but he coulds top punching if Trinidad takes him to the ropes liek at times during his last 5 fights. Thats Trinidads best chance.

    What other option does he have?

    He's not a "boxer" looking to win rounds and never has been.

    The only chance Tito has is what happened in Jones/Tarver 2. If he lands a hook flush that Roy doesn't see :nut he may have his hand raised in victory. Other than that, this could be the ugliest loss in Tito's great career. A mismatch made in hell! ****, this almost convinces me that Don king sold his soul to the devil...."The greatest trick Demon King :fire pulled off was convincing the world that Tito had a chance"....:rofl :rofl
