I think Roy still has enough to beat him IF he could make the weight comfortably, imo cleverly is the weakest champion and would get sparked by Jones. Thoughts?
RJJ vs Nathan Cleverly.

Unfortunetly Roy's power has gone along with his reflexes and timing.
Cleverly has dreadful defence, but he has a very good chin and his work-rate is about as high as you'll find. I think he'd win that fight on work-rate alone seing as Roy no longer has the power, stamina or self belief to over come it. That's a sad thing to say considering a prime Roy would utterly destroy someone like Clev. -
dunno bout that cleverly aint that much of a shmuck but roy would box circles round him all night though
a prime roy jones for me is up there with the best fighters ever he dominated every division he was in sure he cherry picked a few (ok maybe more than a few) but he was entertaining to watch something that alot of these boxers now just ain't no matter how hard they tryComment

I'm not knocking Cleverly mate.. I think he is a good you fighter and is being brout along nicely but Roy imho is one of the greats and In his prime against current cleverly who is still green and has a B- defence I think it would end in 4.. Roy was super quick and super strong and he would be throwing from all sorts of angles that Cleverly has never seen...dunno bout that cleverly aint that much of a shmuck but roy would box circles round him all night though
