I think Tito likes a slow pace, and that suited Roy, but he really likes to wait until a fighter finishes up before doing his own thing. I think a guy with a high output like Calzaghe will be able to throw punches then get out of range before Roy can respond, or He will overwhelm Roy on the ropes.
I pray to god Roy wins, I mean this would make him shoot up the p4p ATG poll 20 spots in my roster. If he were to beat Winky, and Hopkins and Calzaghe he would be in my top 5 all time, but Roy doens't have Hopkins' defensive skills, he doesn't have any greater an output, and he may have lost his greatest edge. His overwhelming speed.
