    Can Tito really beat Jones?

    Man im having a very hard time taking this fight serious. I love Tito and respect everything hes done, but I have a terrible feeling hes going to get embarrassed. Im not alone here, almost everyone ive talked to (mostly Puerto Ricans) have said they think Tito should just stay retired. I think Tito has a chance (probably jst pride talking) and im going to be rooting for him, but i dunno if he can pull this one off.

    I think Tito has shot. Tito likes to move foward and apply pressure...not to mention he still has some power left. If RJJ tries to go "toe to toe" and begins to lay on those ropes again, then its possible Tito could knock him out!

      IM about the biggest roy jones fan you will fine but im logical, Joe calzaghe would beat roy jones at this stage in his career, but roy jones will completely destroy trinidad. Trinidad has no business challenging one of the best ever at this guys naturally weight. I dont think tito has more than a 2 percent chance to be honest. I hope we get to see at least 6 rounds of jones playing with him though because i think jones could end it in the first if he wanted too.

        That left hook is Tito's shot. If it lands it could be trouble but if not Roy is going to work hi mout.

          RJJ cannot keep his back of the ropes he did it against Hanshaw ,glen Johnson & at times against Ajamu

          if Tito walks him to the ropes like they it will not be a long fight put it that way ,Im a RJJ fan but i just dont see how he is gonna win this he is way to far gone IMO & should retire i couldnt believe he took this fight against a Puncher like Tito i dont care what weight its at glen johnson does'nt hit harder than Tito at any weight IMO and Tito is better Boxer for sure

            Tito has also never fought at 175 and only had a few fights at middleweight, so even tough he is a great puncher it doesn't mean that he will carry that same type of power up in weight and be able to knockout someone who has taken shots from middleweights supermiddles lightheavys and heavyweights.

                he only has a chance if he lands on Roy's weak chin.

                  This is boxing bro.

                  If Tito can land a good shot, then its possible he can win. I don't know how Tito is going to take Roys power.

                  This fight is going the distance. Roy will be on his bike. I think Trinidad is going to surprise alot of people.

                    Bull****. Pound for pound: Tito hit harder before getting busted for the illegal handwrapping.

                    At 170 & above Glen Johnson easily hits harder. Hell, Tito couldn't even slightly rattle a natural 154 pounder in Winky. Winky kept laughing when Tito would unload on him.

                    The Puerto Rican Flags will be at half staff the morning after the fight.
