    I think Jones should win, but Lacy still has the power to hurt him if he's able to land clean. It's an interesting, albeit largely meaningless, fight.

    If Jones show only a spark of what he used to be in his good old days of glory, Lacy will get systematically dismantled.

    I remember people saying something similar about Mike Tyson. "If he is only 50 percent of what he was he should be able to....." This kind of talk was right before the Danny Williams and Kevin McBride fights and Tyson got wiped out in both. Jones spent way too much of his career relying on his un-natural speed and punch. He has neither any more. Lacy by a late round TKO.

    You see, I am not so sure, what sunk him against Joe is that he was gun shy but when he was firing, the speed was good and he was tagging him fairly often. Let's see though but I am sure he'll beat him. The problem with Tyson is that he never dedicated properly in training to regain his "50%". I think that Jones, him, can.

    I think even an old jones has enough speed and power to be able to handle lacy. the only question is how will jones react to lacys power once hit. will he step up or fold?

    Lacy is a one arm fighter at this point.

    He got a gift against Mendoza, and he lost pretty badly to Taylor.

    Roy Jones is going to another win over another former world champion to his resume.

    Anthony Hanshaw was more of a threat.

    The same way I feel about Jones-Trinidad. Two shot fighters going at it isn't too thrilling for me.
