            what are we basing this on? Tito would beat Mayweather a descive UD or stoppage if they ever fought and I dont know how to compare him to Jones.

              As for the Hopkins was green when they fought, he actually had more fights under his belt at the time they fought than did RJJ.

              A prime RJJ would beat Zag's. Zags uses his speed to beat opponents, and if you think he'd be faster than Roy, and/or is better defensively than Roy, pass what you're smoking over this way, 'cause it's some good ****...LOL!

              What great fighters did Floyd beat exactly??? An old DLH is about the only "great" fighter he beat. Roy has beaten 2 of the best ever at their weight classes and fought them when they weren't 34 years old as Oscar was when he faced Floyd. all the respect for Corrales, but the man was quite limited in what skills he brought to the table, and Castillo is just good, but not great, and neither can hold a candle to Hopkins or Toney!

              Fact is, RJJ faced the better overall competition, and won in more convincing fashion than Floyd has, end of story. RJJ was the better fighter, and i'd like to see how Floyd looks when he is 34-35 years old. I'll be willing to bet that if he keeps fighting until then, he'll get an L on his record eventually if he fights good opposition. Guys with great speed don't seem to hold up around that age, just ask Pernell, RJJ, and SRR about that!
              how genaro hernandez, castillo, ricky hatton(although you wouldn't have known this seeing how you made this post before the hatton fight). to say roy won in more convincing fashion is ******, mayweather is the most dominant fighter of his generation, bar none. which is why at age 34-35, he won't lose, you know why, because not only does he have the fundamentals of a great boxer to avoid punishment like roy did, thus his 2 knockouts against tarver and johnson(which you have to take into account and not give any excuses for, seeing how they would be bull**** excuses anyway, you can't argue a knockout can you?), floyd is a gym rat and trains all year round, and stays in shape, and his mindset is as methodical as any fighter in history, he is too smart a fighter to lose, because he doesn't take anybody lightly, he is too fundamentally tactical to lose, so age won't mean ****, he's still smart as hell.

              btw, floyd was way better in his prime than roy, bar none.

                Roy in his prime could arguably beat any fighter in history from 160 to 175. Floyd would get beat by several fighters at 147 and 135.

                WAY better? C'mon man, wake up.

                      Floyd has never shown up to a fight to just survive...see Tarver/Jones III
