Who is faster Floyd mayweather Or Prime roy jones jr

Straight up Roy Jones is faster, the guy was grease lightning, could leap in and throw combinations from freakish angles. Toney couldn't see them coming.

Its very difficult to say, maybe pure handspeed its PBF, but in reflex its RJJ. But Meldrick Taylor had quicker combo's than both of them!

hmm Floyd has never ripped off the combos that Roy ripped off like vs Tony Thornton, Toney, Paz, etc. Roy is faster, straight up and p4p. That's no knock on Floyd but Roy is just faster.

Most accept that young 19-20 yr old Hector Camacho had the fastest, quickest hand and footspeed ever. Even Ray Leonard admitted as much back when Ray was still the unretired headliner.

i think it is Floyd no one could compare to prime roys speed, both foot and handspeed

Floyd punches with a lot of combos so he might look faster. But roy had amazing reflexes. The dude made a led left hook look like a jab. Remember when he knock out hill with his golves behind his back? No ones faster then roy period.

Judging FLoyd in the ring with Super Judah will be an interesting way of finding out how fast FLoyd really is

I'd say Jones, in his prime, was the fastest fighter I'd ever seen. PBF is close.

p4p jones not p4p jones jones all the way expt at hv

PBF has to be faster due to his lesser size but P4P faster would have to be Jones. that right but not by much

Ain't no tellin'. As discussed before in another thread Floyd looks faster, because he is more twitchy with his speed while Jones is more smooth with his.....there's no telling. End of thread.

its a weight issue which means is that mayweather is faster cause he has lighter hands then jones cause jones weighs more. jus my opinion. :)

PBF has to be faster due to his lesser size but P4P faster would have to be Jones.

Have you seen them fight? Put it this way...Floyd looks fast vs Gatti and Castillo...Roy looks inhuman vs Toney and Hopkins. I would say Jones is faster but to say Mayweather only looks fast against slow fighters is crazy. Jones has the edge in speed but it wouldn't be that big of a margin.

Its definitely Floyd but the power disparity is huge. Different weights of course. They are hard to compare unless you use them compared to their opponents and then they become somewhat similar
