the klits and haye definitely beat him. Im sure there are others that could beat him too, but not that easily. 2003 version of roy would give any heavyweight a tough fight (even the top guys), but there are only a few he couldnt beat. he was just too good in all aspects...

Roy is not a heavyweight and never was,he picked the perfect slow plodding Ruiz to snatch a title from and wisely went back down in weight.

RJJ would get annihilated by the likes of the Klits and Haye. I think he'd have a good fight with guys like Chisora/Helenius/Pulav. He could may be squeak out wins but be a champion? Never
