I watched the Trinidad fight and what alarmed me was that a guy like Trinidad managed to push Jones back to the ropes, Winky defense or not, if a guy like Trinidad could push him back to the ropes, I have no doubt Miranda could do it and could put some hurt on Jones when he's on the ropes. Jones relied on foot speed a lot.

And Jones didn't really use the Winky defense in the Hanshaw fight, he fought off the ropes most of the time and Hanshaw landed some good stuff on the ropes.

Let me break this down.

First of all, Jones WANTED Tito to come to him - he allowed Tito to "push him back." Truthfully, Tito never took the bait. And it's why Jones wasn't able to KO him; especially after Tito got dropped. Once he felt Jones' power, he became a boxer. When the hell has Tito ever done that? He learned his lesson against Hopkins and decided never to be so dumb again.

Second, Hanshaw landed some good shots but Roy saw them all coming and smothered most. And he fought VERY well off the ropes - witha high workrate.

Against the ropes is where he wants to be. TRUST ME.

That would be a great fight. If Jones has faded enough, Miranda could KO him. I am not sure if RJJ has faded that much yet. Tossup at best. Id say RJJ by UD.
