hmmmm... That's tough, Roy is over the hill, but, I don't think I'll ever get tired of seeing Tito lose.

7 years ago I'm 100% sure jones jr vs tito would have been an even worse lopsided beatdown than hopkins vs tito and winky wright vs tito combined.

I agree but I think it would have been fun leading up to the fight since they were both so respected in the ring.
