    Holyfield

    V. Klitschko
    McCall
    Rahman
    Tua
    Grant
    Botha
    Briggs
    Golota
    Tucker
    Bruno
    Morrison
    Mercer
    Ruddock

    Do Roy, Hopkins or Mayweather have those kind of credentials?
    In a P4P match up would you choose Lewis over RJJ?

    IMO Roy Jones has probably the most natural talent of any boxer there has ever been.

        It is impossible to put heavyweight in a P4P matchup.

        I thought best of an era meant resume vs. resume.

        Anyways, what makes you so sure that Jones would make easy work of Mayweather? Both are so ridiculously far ahead in speed compared to any opponent either has ever faced.

        You don't know how Jones would handle that, nor do you know how Mayweather would handle that.

            When the hell did I say that? haha

            Floyd is amazing, Lennox is amazing, Bernard is amazing, but Jones Jr has the edge.

            The other 3 are good. he's just better.

              It's hard to match Jones's offense against Mayweather's defense, just like it is hard to match Mayweather's offense against Jones's defense...

              I don't like thinking about fights like this, because they are not even relatively close in weight, and they have never fought anyone even in the same galaxy as the other.

                  I cant believe all the votes for Mayweather. I'm trying not to being bias but Floyd HAS been close to being defeated: Once by JLC and Once by Oscar.

                  Roy wasn't even close to being beat when he dominated. Hell he only lost a round because he wanted to lose the round, not because he was actually bested. The man was untouchable.

                  I really think folks see poll and because Mayweather is the next hot item in the boxing market today, they just press the button and move onto the next post w/o posting a comment.

                  Floyd is more skilled I'll admit, but not more gifted.

                    Agree. Some people just hate for no particular reason. Just hate to hate.

                      floyd mayweather jr. now, try to bash m yoption if you want to, i'll argue with any ****er on this site, bring it boys. i have already explained why floyd is the best fighter of his era, and skillwise, jones cannot touch him, because jones has 2 losses with his skills, and floyd doesn't.
