Jones-Trinidad Keys To Victory


This fight is taking place at a time when both men are considered to be beyond their prime.When trying to predict a winner in this fight you must wonder which Roy will show up? and Which Tito will show up?.Here are the Key to victory for each fighter.

Roy Jones Key to Victory!
The keys to victory for Jones are simple, and it all starts with angles. The best way to keep space and create angles against a fighter like Trinidad is to use a stiff jab. Jones Jr. must use great discretion with angles and spacing to not only setup his shots, but also to avoid the bombs that Tito will throw in return. Jones has been the more active fighter, stamina should be on his side, which would make this game plan a bit easier to execute.Jones must do is try to keep the fight in the middle of the ring where his speed can become more of a factor.

Felix Trinidad Keys To Victory!
The key to this fight for Trinidad is ultimately gonna come down to two things. stamina and a punchers chance. Tito has not been very active lately, which could mean his body is preserved or he will look rusty and old over night. If he can close the gap and land a huge right hand he may have a chance,although he has never fought above 160pds.

Tito is a live underdog with the odds being Tito +265 and Roy -335 according to www.bodoglife.com my prediction is that Roy stops him in the late rounds, but none of that inside of 4 rounds stuff that he is talking.

I agree with you prediction, but Roy has never used a jab in his career. I do think he will get ankles by using his superior foot speed against the charging "Tito".

Nice blog.
