Jones vs. Tarver III

[Truth]

Roy should come back and fight who ever wins Tarver/Johnson II and then retire.

yeah retire after he gets beaten again

Its possible but I think Jones would not be denied.

[The Pretender]

Roy would lose again because he's been exposed. His speed and defense are gone and now his chin is ready for being tapped a 3rd time. Roy really gone downhill...first he drops his hw belt without even one defence, then he goes to get KTFO twice in a row. He is done.

Jones would get KTFO again.I think Roy had a weak chin, but it wasnt exposed enough in the early years cause he used his movemeent and he basically was a counterpuncher and a pot-shot fighter.

I love Jones Jr. and he WAS an excellent fighter, but those days are pretty much over. Tarver seems to the style to beat Jones Jr. and it seems as though he has his number.

I'd be rooting for Roy, but I don't like his chances.

Tarver KO4.

[Bozo_no no]

Jones should come back and fight Tomasz Adamek.

If he looks good, and Tarver wins the Johnson rematch (which I don't think he will) I think Roy is still capeable of beating Tarver.


I think he'd be a lot more aware of getting hit like that (something he didn't expect in a million years) and if he boxes and picks his shots and keeps his hads up (no throwing wild punches while Tarver is throwing), I think he can pull it off.

The one thing I was thinking about would be that now would be the perfect time for Roy to show up in a fight and throw 30 jabs a round. He has a fine snapping jab, but he rarely used it in his career because his speed and relfex allowed him to land power shots at will.

If Jones came into the ring with a piston jab and threw 30 of them around, no one would be prepared for it.
