was wondering who use guys think would win? i think this fight could be nathans chance to show the world how good he really is . nathans got alot stronger over the years and is looking really comfortable at this division. i can see him beating and possibly stopping jones. and getting some needed world wide publicity.

no way cleverly is definately overated roy even at age 40 still possess great speed and is still faster then cleverly. i agree that roy has lost his punch resistance but if he stays off the ropes thn nathan hasn't got a chance.maybe i'm being a little harsh but roy jones is my favourite fighter of all time and i think it is an insult to roy to even think about a fight with nathan.

Unfortunately that speed is only in his hands. His legs are f***ed, and anyone can easily force him to the ropes these days, and that is when its all over.

 

Cleverly KO inside 5 rounds, due to Jones being useless today, as opposed to NC being that good.

I think there is a chance Cleverly could win it.

 

He does need to face a bit of a tougher challenge, but he is making progress in the division, and will no doubt hold a version of the world title sometime soon.

 

Cleverly wins on points.

Jones still takes this for me at the moment with a UD, Im not all that convinced about Cleverly yet

 

Jones is finished.

 

He's far far from what he was, but still made a mockery of Jeff Lacy, who although has been found out before, has more credibility than Nathan Cleverly at the minutes whos fought no where near the same level of opposition

it was an insult that Danny Green got to fight him but that still happened

 

when i 1st saw this thread i thought it meant a Prime RJJ vs a prime Cleverly, started to think you were going crazy Bud

 

at this point in time, or at least when you made the thread i think it'd be a close fight, still not set on Cleverly but i know Roy is shot to bits nowadays

 

i think whoever wins, wins by a close decision, would probabaly give Clev the edge
