means he is versatile !. jones could have ko'd tito in the 7th. just like he could with hanshaw , i don't know why lets these guys off the hook. roy has the power at 168 to hurt carlzaghe. and if he does he better finish ! .
tough matchup
but im rooting for ROY JONES JR !
No, it has something to do with Jones being a smarter, older fighter and something to do with Trinidad being a tough S.O.B.
Can you imagine how much energy it takes to put out someone like Trinidad who goes down in almost all of his fights and gets right back up?
Jones doesn't have that energy left in him anymore and Tito's left hook was harder and faster than he expected, he could've been caught by it if he got overly aggressive. So Roy played it safe, didn't take any chances and won a wide UD.
Why would Roy keep talking about how he was going to KO Tito in fo' come fight time unless he tried to? He saw that Trinidad had more left in him than Roy expected so Jones took it easy.
Give some credit to Trinidad.
I'm sure Jones could've knocked Tito out if he wanted to brawl but then he would've given Trinidad a chance to land that left hook.
How many times did Roy get caught flush in the face in that fight? Not many. Trinidad only landed to the body and that didn't affect Jones at all.
Well said..
Wonder if he knows that he could cause more damage by landing an accumulation of shots than by a one shot knockout.
His defense seemed much better in this fight, he did look like he took a page out of Winky's playbook at times.

i think it has something
to do with gerald mccllelan
Roy never really wanted to hurt anyone. He is satisfied with showing his dominance going the distance and getting his paycheck with noone seriously hurt. I thought it would change for this one fight because of the amount of people that would be watching but hey, shit happens.
I don't buy that at all. If Roy could end the fight without putting himself in jeopardy he would. Why would he risk getting cut or breaking his hand while carrying a guy? Jones made a big deal of saying he would take Trinidad out in the 4th. He couldn't, so he didn't.

Skills is right on the money.
Every time Roy opened up, you could tell that Tito had no answer. It was Roy and only Roy that kept Tito in the fight.
“I can’t believe you stayed in there 12 rounds with me. We had a great fight and everyone said we were too old. “I tried to put him away a few times but he slipped a lot of my good punches. I had a wonderful camp and great sparring partners. It was a great fight. I can’t believe he stayed in there for all of those rounds for me. He was slipping a lot of my good punches and I felt like I was missing knocking him out by inches. I jammed my knuckle sometime during the fight. He’s got a pretty hard head...!
