    i think roy would go a few rounds, probably until he got caught flush when he wore down a bit maybe in 5 or 6 rounds,

    the thing that makes roy such a legend imo is that if we spoke about calzaghe or even someone heavier like tarver who imo are great and very good fighters, calzaghe being the great one we would laugh at the thought of them taking on a prime tyson.

    however even though the large majoritry of people think he would get sparked there are some who think it would be a competitive fight even if roy was to lose. i just cant see anyone else who has a natrul weight of below cruiser being even given the slightest chance of making it through 3 rounds.

    Yes that is why i would think he has a chance. Movement, stamina and punch speed would all be in his favour. Just like he did against Ruiz Jones Jr would be fast - stupid fast and the ring generalship would be in his favour as would punch output. Staying out of the way of punches is much easier for the smaller more skilled guy.

    James Toney maybe.

    Roy makes one mistake and he'll be out of there sharpish.
