    Yep. Love Roy but come on...he defended his middleweight title...ONCE. And while he was bigger and stronger, he wasn't as experienced, wasn't as skilled or as GOOD as Ray Robinson.

    Robinson wears him down and wins a clear decision at 160.

            Jones' career at middleweight wasn't very long. I'll go with Robinson.

                    That's why you voted for him?

                        on a p4p level.. i think roy can beat him, which is why i voted

                        at actual middleweight.. i think roy was too green to take robinson

                        i think the SMW roy could very well decision robinson... its not out of the realm of possibility...

                            But the question is at 160, it wasn't Robinson's best weight either, he was best at 147 while Roy IMO was best at 168 but also very good at 160, I think Roy takes this one by decision, the size advantage would be much. P4P Robinson wins but at 160 and above Roy beats him.

                                that pretty much sums up my thoughts...

                                        I would only pick Roy due to the size difference and Robinsons best days at welterweight, but a prime Roy is vastly overrated, beat anyone in history? please....most of Roy's prime days were fighting fringe contenders of course he's going to look great. P4P Robinson would beat Roy, actually I don't want to pick anyone because it's ****** comparing two different fighters of different era's and weight classes.
