    The Jones who fought Sheika would absolutely school the Froch who showed up for Taylor. I'm 100% sure of that.

    Dammit, watching it a second time (I now have 107-101 before the 12th), Taylor should've clinched more during those last 3 rounds. He would've had it then.

      That's like saying the Manfredo that (hypothetically) fought my grandma would destroy him.

      Work it out.

          Roy Jones PUTS HIMSELF on the ropes nowadays.

          That gets him knocked out spectacularly against Froch.

            From the way jones faught against calzaghe....i dont think he would have a hope against froch....hes got great stamina and thats something i dont think jones has anymore...

            i think the power punches would later be to much for him...so i picked froch by KO

              Taylor fought an outstanding fight outside his weight class and couldn't hold Froch off. Today's Jones has neither Taylor's speed nor workrate. I'm sure he'd catch Froch with some good shots early - but ultimately Froch would catch up with him and end it.

              Jones has no business being in the ring with good, hungry fighters.

              None.

                Froch by TKO....I don't think Roy could handle that kind of pressure for 12 rounds....Hell if Lacy brings his A game he still has a shot at over whelming Roy with his pressure style but thats quite unlikely IMO.

                  Jones still has speed, and Froch output isnt exactly Calzaghes.

                      I think if Jeff had anything left he'd have a chance. But he looks completely done, it's just the fact Roy likes to extensively with his back to the ropes, considering it is Lacy's sole objective to bully guys into the ropes and Roy would willingly be putting himself there.....dodgy territory, Lacy would think it was Christmas.
