I really think Prime Roy Jones has a chance to beat Tyson.

[Benny Leonard]

I think some people are impressed with how good Jones looked before he had been hit. As soon as he got hit, he was never the same.

But seriously, Tyson wouldn't just sit at medium range and let Jones take him to school. He'd be in his ass throwing short combinations to his ribs and throat.

I still think the weight-loss not only took something out of him physically, but took it out of him mentally; the two go hand in hand. The KO loss just made it worse. Roy was hit before even though it may surprise people; even knocked down.

Either way, you can have Roy on his best night; he still isn't going to beat Prime Tyson. Tyson, unlike the majority of HWs that are slow plodders, he was a throw-back to Dempsey who could sprint incredibly fast forward and make up room in a split second.

But, we both know this wouldn't matter with "if" because Roy wouldn't have taken the fight. Like I said in my other post: If Roy needed 100 million to face a past-prime Tyson, he isn't facing Prime Tyson.

You know those Discovery channel shows on Great White Sharks? And the slow motion footage of the sharks going crazy on a baited line, or whale carcass?

Thats EXACTLY what watching prime Tyson is like. The ferocity and power were just insane....

Given your idea, this is how the fight would turn out

Tyson's the shark

Small chance, but hear me out.

Roy could only win by SD,MD or Ud(115-113). Not enough power for a KO, mabye a lucky flash KD.

Roy couldn't trade at any point in the first 5 rounds, thats obvious.
So, his plan would be to evade Tyson for 5 rounds, while landing as may body shots a possible. This, of course, would put Tyson up by 5 rounds(given Tyson does KTFO Roy).

After the 5th round Roy would be able to take the fight based on Tyson's lack of endurance(Douglas fight).

That would be his only chance, win the rest of the 7 rounds.

Whatever you've been smoking, I'd like some too.

im surprise some people actually think its going to last for 4 rounds or more

i reckon its KTFO in 1 or 2

Like I said earlier, I'd give Roy about 2 minutes, then somebody better call an ambulance.

If Glen Johnson can lay Roy out for 3 minutes, Tyson lays him out for 3 weeks.

Jones does not have enough to keep Tyson off him, and he does not use enough lateral movement to keep Tyson turning to offset him ......also he is horrible at tying his man up on the inside.

Jones would not see the 12 th round.

Roy is a natural super middle ffs.

Sorry. I don't see it.

Prime Tyson or shot Tyson?

Prime Mike would annihilate Jones. It wouldn't even be in the least bit competitive.

Yea because the prime Tyson annihilated the undeniable force that was one, James "Buster" Douglas.

Roy had a good chance to beat Mike based on his speed and foot movement. Would it happen? We will never know.
