More Impressive Title Reigns In Multiple Divisions: Floyd Mayweather Or Roy Jones Jr

[mathed]

Not even close, RJJ resume, crushes Floyd's

[HAVISJ]

Roy beat Ruiz, who had an ABC belt and only because King wouldnt work well with Lennox otherwise Lennox would have had that belt.

Its a good win and all but it was a style picked that would work well for him and was the easiest way to a belt at heavy.

Floyd was lineal at 130, 135, would have been at 140 but Hatton's coach wouldnt allow the fight, then lineal at 147.

Jone's early career was impressive but towards the end his opposition was weak and the Ruiz win was good but still think mayweathers resume is better overall.

I agree with you and I'm one of the biggest Jones jr. fans on the planet. To be honest, I don't see any big wins on his résumé other than Hopkins and Toney.

is this a serious question?
Hopkins and Toney alone beats Floyd's resume
then his HW belt, Hill, Reggie Johnson, Tarver 1, Griffin, etc
Roy cleaned out and unified LHW, Floyd never cleaned out any division
Roy>>>>>>>>>>>>>Floyd

No, Toney and Hopkins are the only two really worth mentioning. I'm a Jones fan but I call it Like I see it

Roy Jones Jr. resume:

Bernard Hopkins
Thulangi Malinga
James Toney
Antonio Tarver
Montell Griffin
Julio Cesar Gonzalez
Mike McCallum
Virgil Hill
Lou Del Valle
Clinton Woods
Eric Harding
Reggie Johnson
John Ruiz (accomplished something that hadn't been done in 106 years)


We been through Floyd's resume thousands of times already so I'm not going to go through it again. But clearly Jones has the better wins and the more impressive run. And yes, I realize that a few of those names were past prime but so were a lot of Floyd's recent wins.

Roy's resume is much better than Mayweather's.

Roy did have many great wins against his opposition, and the only reason I would say Roys Reign was more impressive; was his ability to finish fights impressively on a constant basis!

I voted for Jones without a doubt. Mayweather is great and he has done alot. Jones is even better and he has done more in my opinion. If Jones had retired after he won a piece of the heavyweight tittle his prestige would be higher. He hurt his legacy by fighting past prime. I don't hold those losses against but some do. If Mayweather loses a fight now at 36 it won't make me think less of him.

Jones should have retired after Tarver 1, losing 20lb of Muscle and regaining the lineal 175 title is amazing
