Chad Dawson vs Roy Jones Jr.

[IamInuit]

So weaken the comparison is the answer? Like Poncho Villa v Jimmy Wilde. So Dawson needs a shadow of Jones in order to beat him. Pretty much answered your own ?

I didn't necessarily weaken the question. The question was the Tarver Era Jones and the Post Tarver era Jones.

No you weakened the Jones question. The pre Ruiz Jones would have raped Dawson at 175 or 168. In short, a prime Jones would have trashed a prime Dawson. The Jones that shed about 20 pounds of muscle that fought Tarver would probably get beat by Dawson. And?
