Tito was the first world class opponent he ever had, I'm sure he would've fought Jones for 60/40 before that Trinidad fight and Oscar DLH is his business partner.
Hopkins had already faced Jones before, he knew what he was in for and I doubt he was too scared based on that match. B-Hop won most of the last rounds and he was coming on while Jones was getting tired.
Both Hopkins and Jones weren't afraid to fight lesser fighters for lesser money. It was all about their egos getting in the way of a great fight.
Jones thought he was better than Hopkins, Hopkins thought he was equal to Jones. That happens.
Most important. There was one man who had something to prove and should have pushed his ego aside if he wanted to, and that's the loser of the first fight. NOT Roy Jones.
