Re: Tito 170lbs, Jones Jr 169lbs PICS
Jones does look weight drained, it'll be important for him to rehydrate as much as possible during the 24+ hours. Tito looks like a guy who trained just barely enough to get to 170 and that's it.

Trinidad had a hard time making the 170lb agreed weight....Not getting down to it but getting up to it...It was admitted by his own camp...so this should be interesting

Wow,I didn't know that! Strange,hoe much did he weight before the fight then? It appears as if all the weight he has put on is fat around the stomach.

Saw the video of Jones open workout in another thread, and he looks quick real quick with good solid pop on his punches along with his trademark double left hook... Tito is getting smoked tonite

IMO Jones has lost a step but not as much as people are saying...He did not look that good in the Baju (how ever you spell it) and Hanshaw bouts even though he won...but in truth he looked to be more gun shy then anything...playing it a little safe in fear of another KO loss

I think Jones will rise to the occasion tonite... I mean lets face it, even though he got Knocked the Fuk out, this is the closest thing to a high profile fight for him since the 2nd Tarver fight.
In the interviews and appearences since this fight was announced Roy has changed his attitude from thinking he was still king shit to a guy that admits he has something to prove and has to show out if he is to be taken seriously at an elite level.. Imo if Jones shows out tonite and has a great performance with handspeed, power, footwork and good desicion. He will have to be taken seriously in the whole Supermiddle and Lightheavy picture.
Jones still has all the physical tools and has dealt with adversity and has showed heart to be competitive with any top fighter.. With Jones its all mental and we will see if the last to confidence builders will prove helpful for Jones... I know he will have my support tonite ;)
If Tito wins by a good punch, then he will just get torn up by Calzaghe, Kessler, Taylor, Pavlik and grappled to death by Hopkins... This fight is a Make or break for Jones and other than a payday for Trinidad I dont think anyone thinks he is staying around to make any serious run and like I mentioned if he does, Tito dosent have the skill to compete with todays 168-170 fighters

Jones always sports a beard for weigh ins burt he cuts it off for the fight .
He's gotta keep his chin down from Titos bombs but lets not forget Tito has often been droped early cuz he is slow to get started . . . . . . Jones -Griffin 2 anyone ?

Well then Trinidad is an idiot. If he was below 170, then he should have just stayed at 160 or 165. just because a fight is at 170 doesn't mean you HAVE to weigh 170. Do you have a source for this info?
Everything I've read is that Tito started training camp at over 200 pounds and had to work hard just to get down to 170.
Re: Tito 170lbs, Jones Jr 169lbs PICS
Looking at him I doubt that he started at 200 pounds and sturggled to get it off... did you mean Jones?
I don't think Tito can have started higher than 185... unless he was out of shape before hand.
