Prime Roy vs Prime Tyson

Difficult to say. Roy was always a "confidence" driven fighter, and his confidence was sky high back in the day. I could see him pulling off a Buster Douglas type performance. With that being said, I don't know how he would have reacted to being hit to the body by a Prime Tyson or if he could have gotten up like Buster did. I would definitely favour Tyson. Lol Roy isn’t capable of pulling a Buster Douglas performance because he doesn’t get down like that especially if it’s against somebody like Tyson. He isnt wired that way. It’s not even a fair fight. But the best timing was after the Ruiz victory. Fight would have been watchable had he caught Tyson back in 04..

He was pulling his shots in the 3rd or fourth he held him up after a heavy body shot..I think the power is still there yeah in the first two rounds before my stream dropped, he was landing counters, ducking under roys jabs/rights to his head while coming in with a hook, like he did in the 80s. Was surprised to see Tyson be the fresher of the two, be able to outbox him and yeah he was just barely touching him, he had some wide open counters for an easy KO shot if he wanted it.

Tyson was able to easily duck down below roys shots and come up for the counter. It was pretty neat really seeing him close the distance in that manor like he did in the 80s. tyson was so fast in his prime, its actually a bad style matchup for jones, even if they were the same weight, a bob and weave style like that with explosive power is a bad style for Roy, then factor in the size and its a complete joke and mismatch.

80s-90s version of Tyson would be too big and too strong for any version of Jones. Jones may good enough to outbox Tyson early on but when Tyson starts to land hard body shots, Jones will fold. That 54 yr old Tyson is no longer a perfect measurement specially for power. Plus there’s gonna be not mich clenching like this one. 2003 versions of Tyson and Jones would have been a better match-upHe was pulling his shots in the 3rd or fourth he held him up after a heavy body shot..I think the power is still there

Given what we saw yesterday who wins...I always knew Roy hand speed wouldn't be a factor but Tyson appeared to have the natural speed rather than that twitch speed he was pretty much able to out jab speed and counter roy...When Roy was trying his best to run away from Tyson with his footwork I saw Tyson pivot and turn and box him in with subtle movements and no effort I see absolutely no way a prime Roy handles Tyson on his A game...Tyson is a boxing historian in his mind he kicked Roy ass a million times, he had the style down pat and neutralized Discuss Mike Tyson has abused his body for 15 years, he still looked to have the better conditioning and endurance in this fight. Mike Tyson would beat Roy Jones Junior at any point in his career 'Any version of Mike Tyson from the late 80's, 90's and early 2000's obliterates Roy Jones Junior'. Too much power, speed and offensive technical ability etc. In my opinion Mike Tyson is a damaged fighter from all of the abuse he has put himself through 'What Tyson Fury did for 1-2 years, Mike Tyson did for 15 years' It takes time to overhaul that type of damage.
