Roy jones started at 154. If he was there in his prime and fought Floyd. How would you see a fight with him and Floyd playing out? For the sake of discussion let's say it happened to be a weight Roy stayed at comfortably and the match was made

Stupid question. Roy could never have made 154 in his prime first of all. More imortantly its downright unfair to take a weightclass one fighter wad huge at, too big to fight at in his prime only to pit him against a guy who doesnt belong at the weight because hes too small. If you were to compare floyd to a 154lb RJJ it would have to be a p4p comparison to floyd at 130.

You cant give roy the advantage of youth being able to be huge at the weight while maintaining the experience he got with age and take away floyds only advantage of making weight comfortably and pretend its a fair or even reasonable matchup.

If it was at an open weight RJJ and May in their primes I think Roy would have won by KO.

Floyd is a top 15 ATG. Roy Jones is like......top 50. With that being said RJJ is THE GREATEST BOXER TO EVER LACE ON A PAIR OF GLOVES. He beats anyone that ever existed in his prime. Anyone. Ever.

He's basically asking who would win, the best version of Roy Jones Jr vs the worst version of Floyd Mayweather Jr lol.

This topic has been discussed many times, and there is no way in hell Floyd beats Roy in a theoretical match up. Above 175 Roy was a beast, way too fast, strong and powerful for Floyd.
