Laugh all you want...but YES! Roy Jones jr.
You have to look at boxing from a fan's perspective & a network's point of view.
The casual public will come back for Tito...because let's face it...Tito put's asses in seats...no matter how far he's fallen from grace.
The thought process on Tito is that he still has his great equalizer & that he just can't compete with accomplished technical boxers.
Jones was a speedster & a natural athelete...he's fallen from that some...so the fight is actually a legit contest in many fan's eyes.
All Jones has to do is blast Tito out down half of the stretch...& he's back. The networks will push it that way, the fighters will push it that way, & the fans...especially devotees...will buy it that way.
Joe could capitalize on a win over Jones that way.
