Fights that could have made Roy Jones a top ten ATG

[TEDetc]

and then a gamble fight with a dangerous heavweight (Win or loss)

You might think I'm pretty ****** for saying this but, Mike Tyson would of been the perfect Heavyweight for Roy to fight in my opinion.

Cosidering Roy wasn't a big puncher at Heavyweight, I feel that any form of Mike Tyson would have been all over Roy knowing this. Roy would to have dealt with Tyson's pressure for a large portion of the fight and I am not sure if he could have done that.

Yeah but Mike was way past it at around 02-03, I really think he'd have a legit chance of winning. Tyson had lost everything that made him great at that point and Roy still had the footwork and skills to out-box Tyson + if he succeeded imagine how great they would look on his resume? "Beat Mike Tyson at Heavyweight by wide UD". How about Corrie Sanders?

Yea that's a good one, after the Klitschko win. Roy could have unified against him and Byrd making him the WBA/WBO/IBF Heavweight Champion of the World.

if roy fought lennox lewis at HW, or unifed the HW division after Lewis, then he would be a legit top 10 ATG.

Assuming if he won:

Lennox Lewis, Joe Calzaghe

Thats what i was thinking lol

[winac]

when would he have fought Calzaghe? Calzaghe didn't have a big name until 2006. Roy was done by '03
