      I think Jones will win it, he'll lose the first few rounds but come on late and win a decision. His Winky style defense and Taylor's low punch output will play into his hands.

        what happens if Jermain lands a hard right hand on Roy early? I think this fight will tell how much Roy Jones really has left.

              I'll bet money on a JT win for sure.

                I picked Roy because I don't like this matchup for Taylor, even with Roy's diminished skills. Taylor is very susceptible to the right and the right hook to the body, which Roy still has the speed to deliver. And Roy is a little too big for Taylor. I don't think this is a good fight for Taylor, I hope he doesn't take it. He fought a very good fight against Pavlik and he's a young man. He should take his time and rebuild. Get comfortable with that heavier weight and reposition his career.

                  If Roy trys to use the ropes as defense then JT wont have any problems! but if Roy uses his speed, and better over-all boxing skills, I can see Roy winning a UD

                    Close fight since both have about the same work rate, but it may be to late for roy! i think i may have to go taylor! he will not lose 3!

                      This is really a tough one to score... I am slightly leaning towards a Roy victory due to countering that Jab of Taylor's.
