    Default I just dont think Tito will have the Power at 170

    I wasnt to impressed with Tito at 160, Now I think he is taking on more than he can handle with Roy Jones(even a past it version) I dont think his power or even his chin will follow him that far.

    Did you see what Tito did to William Joppy at 160? That Joppy was a very good fighter. Trinidad destroyed him. In impressive fashion. I think Trinidad it will carry power at 170. He carried it to 160. His losses there were due to him being out-boxed and out-smarted. Not cuz of lack of power. Trinidad is like Thomas Hearns. His power will follow him where ever he goes.

    I agree with u there VD. Tito has a lot of other things he has to worry about before lack of power.

    Tito has as much chance against Roy as Roy does against Joe. Little to none.

    I just am a little skeptical of a fighter that jumps 10lbs and fights an established advesary of that weight. I know Roy got spooked by Tarver but I think he will be the much bigger man and will take Titos punches well, if he cant Ko Roy he sure as hell aint gonna outbox him

    Would Tito be able to touch Roy? Roy has stayed busy while Tito has been on Vacation.

    I got to say I'm a bit worry about Tito

    It is a historic fight in the sense that it is two great fighters but Tito is way out of his depth. Whilst Roy is more fragile he is more active and will beat Tito. Cannot see it any other way. Why hasn't Tito taken at least some warm up fights?
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I've said it many times and I'll say it agian. It won't be the weight that will bother Tito, it will be the layoff. He will have power, don't worry about that. His chin is underrated because of all his knockdowns and I don't think it will be a factor on this fight.

    He will most likely be slow, tentative, and his legs probably won't respond like they use to.

    FYI, Tito's three wins at 160 were by KO. Two of which were against men who had never been down before, much less KOed, and the third was against Chariffi, limited as he was, he had already fought at 168, briefly held a 160lb title and was pretty tough, and Tito destroyed him effortlessly in 4 rounds.

    I'm with JT. In addition before he jumped those 10 lbs he had a shut out loss to Winky, lookeed dull, slow, unadaptable and poor in all aspects. Add a layoff and a large size differential and i think Tito is in trouble..

    However opne thing i will be watching this fight for:
    Roy with 51 wins has 34 ko's

    Yet after his last fight he said he didn't like to KO guys
    I'll bet he proves himself a hypocrite and goes for the KO.

    Both boxers are at least five years past there best. I think tito can do it as he's faster than jones and jones has lost his power and movement.

    I've been getting a feeling Tito might pull it off. I think he wants it more. I think his ego of wanting to be forever bigger than Cotto has brought him back. My money is still with Roy, but I'm intrigued to see the fight. Same as I am with Mayorga-Vargas.

    Tito will still carry power (not the otherworldly power he had at 147 or 154, but still above-average power), but I don't see him having the speed or the sharpness to land those power punches.

    Tito was never faster than Roy and never will be... Jones still has plenty of mustard on his punches, power is the last thing to go
