    Yeah hanshaw pressed forward, but Roy looked comfortable in the hanshaw fight... and the one time hanshaw actually landed a solid right hand, it literally looked like it pissed roy off and he knocked him down 5 seconds later with a sick combination

    You have to remember, his idol was Ali... That might be good or bad, but I still think its his choice to goto the ropes.
    co-signed.

        some of you may say look at that nice jab floyd is landing...

        but what none of you see.. and not even floyd sees...

        is the fastest left hook hes ever seen, about to come to the side of his head

          It would be bad for him to go back to the ropes, the way to beat Miranda is to keep the fight at center ring and outbox him.

          Jones did look like he led Trinidad to the ropes once or twice but there were times when Trinidad pushed him back there, a guy like Trinidad, who is naturally much smaller than Jones, had no business pushing him back to the ropes.

            Back to the ropes or not... I think Roy was completely in charge of everything that went on inside that ring...

            It was very evident, Roy was doing whatever he wanted to in that ring.

                Most of the time, he was in control but as I said Trinidad did push him back a few times and that's not a good sign.

                Isn't that Jones in the third Tarver fight in your sig?

                    A young Roy wouldn't even make this fight worth contemplating. An old Roy, however...


                    ...would still win handily. Y'all musta' forgot.
