Kudos to Tito for making it the distance, but Jones failing to put the much smaller man away--a much smaller man who had not fought in a couple of years--tells me all I need to know about Roy. He's done in his weight class.
I think you are looking at the trees and missing the forrest. Roy could have polished off Tito any time he wanted after the first knockdown. Its just no in his nature, he's a guy who is happy to score his points and take the decision. He doesn't like to go out for the knockout, plain and simple.
Look at Roy's handspeed and accuracy he showed tonight. The only other guy who shows accuracy and speed on that level is P4P king Floyd Mayweather. He aint the Roy of old, but IMO he isn't done.
