My meaning is that these fight would have been one sided victories for Jones, pre-moving up to heavyweight. They are/were competative afterwards. Jones was definitely in the Johnson fight before the KO. He was landing every time he let the hands go but was too cautious trying not to get hit in an exchange. That backfired, as we know. I was there in Memphis, by the way.
Tito had fought most of his career as a WW, but has been at over 160lbs for 8 years. He was prepared well and ready to fight at the 170lb weight no matter who denies it. also, to Trinidad's credit, he still fought well and did'nt get that tired in the end. Jones was just too strong and too fast/skilled. He was never vulnerable in his last 3 fights unless you tried to see that he was. Which I think you may have been doing.
