Which one woulda had the best chance of upsetting a prime Jones? Also, which woulda had the LEAST chance? For me G-man woulda had the best chance. His height, reach, speed, and power woulda been a threat to Jones, esp early. But still Gerald was pretty one dimensional and RJ woulda most likely boxed the shit outta him. The one w/the least chance is either Benn or Collins. Roy woulda destroyed Benn in under 5 rounds, and Collins woulda been lucky to win a round against Roy. Thoughts?
Agreed that Benn probably would've had the least chance. He had the potential to do damage if he landed, but his own chin was shaky and Roy was more likely to find his chin first before Benn found his. I think Liles and Nunn may have had the best potential to be his "spoilers", because of their height, range, and technical/counterpunching skill, plus Nunn's speed and Liles' big right hook. For the same reason, I think Henry Maske could've been a tough fight for Roy too. Roy vs. G-Man is a tough fight to figure. Roy's picked apart guys with the same fundamental style as G., and it's possible he could do the same to G. himself... but we don't know how he'd approach it when the guy can threaten his chin the way G-Man can.
Nunn of the above! A prime Nunn might have given him problems but a prime Jones was in a different class as this bunch.
McClellan for me, but thats due to his power. Roy was simply too fast of both hand and foot and he would stop G-Man in 7 rounds or less.
