    Default Roy Jones- Felix Trinidad

    Who wins? In their primes, I'd say Roy easily. It's interesting since Roy has slipped much more than Trinidad but I have to expect Tito to be made to order for Roy.

    For all his power, Tito has never been great at handling speed, and I haven't seen anyone in their prime faster than Roy.

    So Roy Jones TKO 9

    in prime, trinidad. roy jones chin has alwys been softer than glass. Him ans Mayweather use the same style, only mayweather is faster, smarter, and better conditioned. Trinidad was one of the baddest punchers of his time. i expect the fight to be a dud as neither of them hae ben really active, but trinidad should win.

    Almost everything you say is true. I'd say Mayweather was better technically than RJ and therefore smarter. I've also never seen him tire. But I think Roy was faster and the better puncher p4p.

    Trinidad has always been a great puncher. No doubt about it. And he is very determined.

    We'll see how this pans out. RJ's chin looked bad of late, and Lou Del Valle dropped him in 99 or something. But the vulnerability was against really big guys in Glen Johnson and Tarver. But yeah, I don't have much confidence in Roy's chin and Tito's a puncher.

    But still gotta go with Roy.

    I totally agree with your assessment, haze. I think Trinidad will take it as well.
