Do you think he could beat Michael Phelps in the pool, if he was allowed to throw punches?

In a fight yes, in a race no

What if it was a race except no lanes and you could still win by KO from a punch. If Jones just stayed in the shallow end he'd have a chance right

Roy is still one of the best swimmers in boxing though! I think he could hold his own with Phelps for a while, especially if he hurt him with a punch first.

Jones' chin is so cracked at this point that he would probably get knocked out by Phelps splashing him.

I don't know though, Jones would probably still have a better chin than most people Phelps is used to competing against. I have heard that Phelps has a really good left hook for a swimmer though, hard to say who has the edge where really.

Roy could conserve energy and just wait to try to catch Phelps on the way back.

Your utter ignorance is showing. It's a well-known fact that Ryan Lochte sparred 12 hard rounds with a prime Jesse Feleciano as part of his preparation for the 2009 North American Summer Games.

Yes, his best chance would be to strafe back and forth along the shallow end trying to intercept Phelps turning around and get his flurries off there. I don't know how many lengths Phelps could finish if Roy landed something big on him. I guess maybe the ref wouldn't be able to tell his legs are gone since it's underwater though He might get the benefit of the doubt there.

Roy's strafing ability in water would be key.

I don't know why contracts aren't signed and a date set yet.

Phelps sparred with our ICB leading up to Beijing and London, that's why he has more gold medals ok. I bet ICB is a way better swimmer than Feliciano is to.

I've heard it's likely for Dubai summer of 2017.

Huh Even in an MMA match, about the only advantages Anderson WOULDN'T have over Jones are raw speed and strength. In a boxing match, he would have sweet fuck all to offer anyone remotely decent and even the corpse of Roy Jones would knock him flat out.

Clueless. Of course the younger, best fighter on the planet, has speed and strength advantage. Joneses nothing going for him anymore. Have u even ever watched Silva. So comfortable in everything he does

Hardly pal. Silva is what, 39 himself? He does not have faster hands than Roy Jones by any stretch of the imagination even today. I'm actually a fan of Silvas, he's my favourite MMA fighter by far and I think he has incredible skills. Of course he's comfortable with everything he does IN AN MMA FIGHT, but that's not what is being discussed here is it. To actually think because he can outbox the guys he fights he'd have a chance in a serious boxing match, is being clueless.

Silva's reflexes are unbelievable, he would have no problem countering Jones and would hit him at will. Fights never going to happen anyway

Anderson Silva got knocked out in the first of his 2 pro boxing fights. I've seen him attempt an Ali shuffle in a boxing match and walk straight onto a punch because of it. He's not and never will be a boxer. To think he could even beat a washed up Jones is ridiculous.

He looks good standing up against MMA level boxers but it'd be a whole different matter against a professional boxer who's operated at such a high level, even one as shot as Jones. They're completely different sports. It would be the boxing version of Couture v Toney.

Stop it Roy...Dammit...just STOP IT!!!!!!!!
