    Send in a fighter to beat (destroy) RJJ

    I really liked that Mayweather thread, so I ripped it off but am changing it to RJJ. For the sake of things, lets ignore his brief foray into heavyweight and keep it to Light Heavy and below.

    I think Foster with his length and power give Jones fits

        Prime Charles at 175 would be very interesting.

          I'd favor Charles, Spinks and Foster over Roy. But I wouldn't be surprised if he beat them all. At his best he was simply unbelievable.

            Nice call. Spinks' herky-jerky style would give Jones fits.

              At 175 I think Ezzard Charles beats him going away.

                  Destroy though? None. If any it's Marciano or some power based puncher's chance destruction. No one simply dominates Roy.

                    someone that could pressure him well. idk like a mini holyfield or larger hagler.


                    he lost a few rounds vs hopkins, hopkins had an idea of what he wanted to do with roy but roy was just so blazingly fast that he couldnt execute.

                    you aint going to beat him on the outside boxing with him, you will have to close the distance rough him up. its been a while but some of the same weaknesses we saw when he was shot he had in his prime he just got away with it. i believe hopkins did well when roy was on the ropes just he couldnt get him there much
