    Exposed?? If anything that just further solidified the belief that prime Jones would $h!t all over Milkdud.
    When guys go ‘shot’ they lose chin, speed/reflexes and stamina. If you think that his speed was that of prime-Jones then you need to watch more of his earlier fights. Roy is/was so insanely fast that even when operating at a fraction of his previous capabilities he still appears way quicker than his opponent. So yes Roy still has skills and he still had alot of speed… but after his drop from HW there were already reports of him looking shit and getting hurt/dropped in sparring. So with alot less quickness, crap stamina and a total glass chin yes Roy is shot. You could argue Tarver helped mess up his chin but after the Johnson fight it was clear he was shot, not just chinny or gunshy. In his prime he’d put up 12 “round 5’s” against Tarver and barely get touched.
