Moorer had the style and stance to trouble Jones, Moorer was a tall, big light heavyweight with huge power in both hands and had a great jab, he was also a southpaw. The tall southpaws who know how to use range, gave Jones trouble, even at his best. Jones' speed, athleticism and awkwardness would have given Moorer a lot of trouble too so it's a tough fight to call, Jones had trouble getting off his shots against those types of southpaws though. If Jones can avoid Moorer's big shots for 12 rounds, then I think he wins a competitve decision, somewhere along the lines of 116-112, but if Moorer lands a big shot, which is definitely not out of the question, he knocks Jones out.

Originally posted by Silencers View PostStats are deceiving, just look at the fights, he didn't look nearly as comfortable fighting southpaws as he did fighting orthodox fighters. Del Valle knocked him down, Harding gave him possibly his toughest defense between the first Griffin fight and the Tarver fight, he didn't look that comfortable against Harmon even though he won every round and obviously Tarver gave him hell and knocked him out, past prime or not. He didn't look nearly as spectacular when he was fighting southpaws compared to when he fought orthodox fighters.
