RJ has time to prepare for Wlodarczyk. I admit it will not be easy but Roy will have something special for him. He will get the win and I bet RJ will not get dropped. This will be one of the toughest fights in RJ's career simply because he has to use his skills in a different manner but Jones's speed and defense will get him over Wlodarczyk. If RJ stays off the ropes and keep the fight in the middle of the ring, he will have a good chance of winning. By utilizing the jab and unleashing hard body shots when he's close to Wlodarczyk, it will break him down as well as open him up for straight right hands and hooks. Roy can win this if his team develops a Championship game plan. In my opinion, if Jones preserves his energy, and make Wlodarczyk waste his energy, RJ will win by unanimous decision.
Also, my guess is Wlodarczyk will try to jump on Jones early like Green did. Jones must be ready for the attack. Jab his A** into next week and slide that Tyson like upper cut in there to make him think twice about running up on him. Maybe Jones trainer should have someone to fight/rush him that way so he will be ready for anything. The only way out of that situation is to Shoulder Roll to make him miss and then throw the uppercut down the pipe. Fighters don't expect Jones to Shoulder Roll because he never uses it. They expect him to cover up and be a standing target. In all the fights that Jones loss, he was a standing target, covered up against the ropes. If he sticks to the Jab, throw Hooks, Upper Cuts and use a new defensive tactic like the Shoulder Roll, Superman will get the victory.
Lastly, and this is probably the most important thing that his team must take into consideration. RJ must arrive in Poland at least 2 to 3 weeks before the fight to adjust to the time, get rest and train. Wlodarczyk lives there so adjusting to time is no issue for him but it may be for Jones. This will ensure that RJ is 100 percent on fight night instead of 80 percent.
