it's a skill comparison man, not everyone has the opportunity to fight so many great fighters as ali, leonard and robinson, doesn't mean they dont have as much skill as them

power wise, jones in his respected weight class was ko'ing(literally shutting their lights) people with iron chins as much as the people ali fought in heavyweight
Reflexes, jones doesn't have to be on the back leg having an opponent reaching, he can avoid and counter as quick as you can blink
hand speed, jones can quadruple hook you quicker than you can count to 4
foot speed, this was another one that my mate kept directing it too, really, ali liked to hop alot, but i prefer jones being able to leap and hit you from across the ring faster than you can raise your gloves(that would be at your neck) to block your chin
chin, ali no question
accuracy, ali, we didn't argue
flexibility, jones did switch his style on occasion, goin from orthodox to southpaw, and other things, think he disputed a bit mentioning the foreman fight but eventually we saw eye to eye
there was probabley one more, i cant remember right now
