tito and roy
Tito will not beat Roy. From his last couple of fights it seems that Roy is "getting his groove back". I hope this is the case, and if so I want to see him fight Hopkins, they have unfinished business
Jones over Tito by Unanimous Decision

ill say this....
hanshaw young, undefeated, did win a tournament.. natural 168 pounder...
tito.. inactive for 2 years... 35 yrs old... has been KOd... natural WELTERWEIGHT
tito is a much better fighter than hanshaw... but hes also 8 years older and 20 - 30 pounds naturally lighter as a fighter, and has been inactive for 2 years..
to me ... that makes them roughly even....

Handshaw is just another fighter. Once he is a champion. Especially a champion in a weight div for 5 plus years then I might respect the guy. I mean look at his resume, most his wins were verse dudes with lossing records

His best win was verse Ziggy Zow "Jean Paul Mendy". Like who the F is that? You can't be serious about putting him even with Tito, dude hasn't even proven himself yet, besides lasting 12 rounds with a old roy

Originally posted by reedickyaluss View Postbut if you compare that to an inactive fighter for TWO years.. and losing to winky and bernard... and now your gonna fight roy at a weight 20+ pounds higher then youve ever fought... thats why i had them even... where there at right now... of course hanshaw is no where near the fighter tito is.. i absolutely agree.... but when u weigh in everything else... tito is out of his element with this fight.. thats where i was coming from...

but at 160.. he was blown up at that point.. hes a natural welterweight which is why i said 20+... thats why bhop over powered him... i honestly dont think roy has a glass chin.. truthfully... i think people think if he gets hit with a jab hes gonna fall over.. lol which is actually funny lol... but he did get knocked out twice... but he also took right hands from a heavyweight.. he CAN take a punch... his knockouts came from two perfectly landed punches that in my personal opinion would have knocked anyone out.. but we wont get into that... ill say this... tito is more out of his element.. than roy is... roys fought twice in the last year or so... prince badi was a bum... and roy looked OK... hanshaw was much better than badi, and roy looked A LOT BETTER.. and even knocked him down .. and in the 11th round at that... for roys age.. thats still impressive... i just think tito is more out of his element than roy is
