    Who would have won...flashback to when RJJ wanted to fight Bowe

    I mean a prime roy jones jr back when rid**** was a good HW. I remember roy wanted to fight bowe but his dad, who had a lot of pull on roy's career then, stepped in and told roy rid**** is to much man for him. Roy eventually parted ways because he felt his dad was holding him back. Anyway what do u see happening if they fought. I rewatched the 94 toney fight and was amazed at how great roy was back then.


    If i remember correctly the fight was suppose to happen around 95 or 96 when both were at there best. right after the holyfield 3 fight.

      Bowe finds Jones in around the 6-7th round and brutally takes him out

        Rid**** Bowe, Lennox Lewis, Vitali Klitschko, Mike Tyson. These are guys that would have destroyed RJJ.

            There is absolutely no doubt that Rid**** Bowe would have KOd Roy Jones with the first clean shot he landed. It would be just a matter of time....

              Yeah, that's what I was thinking. No way RJJ would take on Bowe.

                wow is this a real question. i would be concerned about roy's health at that point, not just him getting knocked out, but the state that he would be in afterward
