P4P whos better? Roy or Floyd

[Boxinguru]

Floyd has better fundamentals and is more sound, but Roy was a phenom. Classically trained vs one in a million talent.

I agree, I think "skill-wise" Floyd is better, IMO Roy relied too much on his athletic ability & once he lost a step, Tarver & Johnson "dented" him! IMO these are 2 guys that Roy would have prob would have beaten soundly in his prime...I was just as shocked as everyone else, but you just don't go from Superman to Clark Kent like that! I mean athletic, "Past" it fighters like Sweat Pea & James Toney (I know he's not offically retired...but) didn't get knocked out (cold) even when their respective reflexes left them! Even Larry Merchant said "He never saw a great fighter out cold"...

Roy's Resume was not the best & Floyd's isn't either, but overall I voted Floyd!

Roy's a lot easier to respect at his p4p peak than Floyd is at his. Jones was thoroughly dominant at the height of his career and cleaned out his division (175). Floyd ain't cleaned out **** at WW.

Prime Roy Jones

Prime Maweather

Mayweather is the superior techincal boxer. RJJ is a more phenomenal athlete.

That's not a good argument. Roy's best competition was BELOW 175. Much like Floyd's best comp was below 147.

Please refer to Roy's record vs the best 175ers. Be sure to include tarver and johnson.

[GodOfWar]

Floyd has the better resume, and I doubt floyd would lose to tarver if Floyd was in the same weight class.

[Burner]

I have to lead more towards Floyd.......

He looks clearly unbeatable......well damn so did Roy....*** it ...its a tie.

[RichCCFC]

Roy Jones was has more talent, Mayweather has more skill.

I think Roy Jones was better P4P though...

[BMWM3P]

Jones was an uncontested P4P and there was no one who would question it. When Jones was P4P king no one gave a chance to whoever he was fighting, he looked invincible. Roy was truly a no question asked P4P king.

Floyd on the other hand is a talented fighter that dissapoints more than he impresses. Only his *****s think he's unbeatable and if he doen't fight a real challenger soon he will lose his status. Floyd is a questionable P4P that is more hype than sustance.
