Felix Trinidad vs Roy Jones Jr

[Hex-One]

There is not enough talk about this interesting fight. I see Tito having a good shot here. He dosent look smaller than RJ, in fact he looks bigger in some pics thus far. If Tito takes his power with him, 1 BOMB is all it will take to either end the fight or change the outcome of the fight.

Thoughts?

Hey Jake,

Have you bought your plane ticket to NY yet? Will you and Joony hook up again?

:dunno:

[Jake]

Please, as if I'd buy a ticket for this.

it's being bought for me

:lol:

wow...a free trip.

We know you're crashing at Joony's. :lol:

When Jones-Trinidad first finalized, Muzse calls Jake...

Muzse: Jake, I know you're going to Jones-Trinidad

Jake: Nah, I can't justify goin' back to New Yawk for that.

Muzse: Jake, please. You know you're going.

Jake: Nah, I don't understand what that fight accomplishes. I ain't goin'. I don't know if I'd buy the pay per view.

Muzse: Yeah right.

Jake: Nah.


Fast forward to today...

See above post.

[Hex-One]

I think this fight is going to be better than some expect. It's really up to RJ, he can either make it exciting or stink the joint up.

TRANSLATION: he can turn Tito into a Pez dispenser like Winky or he can knock Tito out early and save Tito's fans 36 minutes of an ass whupping.

bastid :lol:

it depends on whether or not a fighter for whom I'm doing publicity (Jameson Bostic) remains on the card. For the moment he's scheduled.

But all that said, my daughter most likely has a basketball game that day, which has me right back to most likely not going (to the fight), and if not, then not ordering the PPV since he won't be on the televised portion.

[LOK]

total mismatch.. even now

Roy will toy with Tito and then brutally knock him out

Yeah right...

In the event you DON'T go (and I believe you will) I'm saying the same thing I said after your first denial of purchasing Vargas-Mayorga...

I require a copy of that months cable bill as proof of non-purchase.

[Jake]

I know, and I'm not happy about it. But I hate going to Sports bars around here, and nobody else ever wants to host a fight party. So it's me and all two of my boxing buddies out here tuning in. :doh: :lol:

[phonetap]

tito has a chance because roy's reflexes have diminished and his chin is made of fine china these days. and for that reason phonetap doesn't see roy willing to commit to knocking tito out...he's not going to risk getting countered with anything. phonetap suspects this fight will not be a "fight", it will be a sparring match. damn, phonetap hopes he's wrong...:doh:

[steve_dave]

I made a promise with myself that I would never pay to watch Roy Jones fight ever again after Tarver III. I hope I don't reconsider come fight night. :lol:

[slystaff]

sellout.

word.

:lol: Why are Beavis and Butthead always giving me trouble!

I'm still a Roy Jones fan...but why the hell should we be interested in him fighting Tito Trinidad, a blown up welterweight that's been inactive for a few years and in his last fight was EMBARASSED by Winky Wright...12 rounds to ZIP!!:dunno:

that's kind of my thoughts as well, that if Roy doesn't blitz him early it becomes a tedious exhibition throughout the 2nd half. but as far as Tito knocking him out - I just don't see Roy taking the unnecessary risks, unless he fights the entire fight like he has something to prove. Even with Roy's diminished skills, I don't see Tito doing it in one shot, and do believe that Roy has enough left to neutralize anything Tito brings to the table, especially at 170, which I believe Roy will comfortably make.

well, believe it or not (and Hanzy may want to sit down for this one), they're actually more FLOYD fans then they are BOXING fans.

[cupey alto]

You know the only thing hard about this fight is picking which round Tito KO's this bum. I'm predicting around 6--unless Tito feels like doing it sooner.

this made me really "LOL"

so now people who are "RJ fans" are "Bitches" ??? lol...

we are scared that tito will KO him? :lol:

It might be a good fight (although I doubt it), but even now, Roy has the ability to make Tito do the el foldo in the first. The funny thing is, so does Tito in terms of power but it's unlikely to be seen. The differences will be conditioning, footspeed, and reach (neither of these fighters resembles Joe Frazier in the bobbing and weaving category, but RJJ is closer than Tito...and that's not saying much).

RJJ will make the weight barely, but Tito will have a spare tire. Tarver was able to move quick enough and had a long enough reach to press the issue. Tito walks around the ring like he's balancing on tent pegs, and his reach isn't like to exceed Tarver's.

Tito will put pressure on until he tastes a really quick RJJ bomb. Roy, at this stage, SEEMS unlikely to put pressure on a REALLY good puncher, so Tito will get pecked apart unless Roy decides to dig a good one in to test that chin and finds little resistance. In fact, it might be Tito's gameplan to try and lure him in.

I'd like to see Roy step it up, but he's likely to still be gunshy now. Unless Tito looks horrible, I'd bet that this goes at least 6 rounds. If Roy doesn't land a big one, then it might go the distance. I just can't see Tito having the range, footspeed, and handspeed to land the homerun shot. I won't count Tito out completely because he has that ability to land one and totally turn the game...but I am 99% sure Roy will pluck him apart from the outside in 9 or less.

[The Genius]

Roy will win.

Alot easier than people think too.
