Who was best in his prime..Floyd, Roy, or Bernard?

Prime for prime Hopkins was the most skilled but Jones was the best.

No way Hopkins is more skilled than Mayweather

That's debatable, Mayweather is more skilled on defense but he's not as skilled on offense, and I think Hopkins blends offense and defense better, it's debatable but I give the slight edge to Hopkins. And Hopkins' defensive skills aren't that far off Mayweather's because I doubt Mayweather would be able to avoid getting hit when he's 43.

Mayweather at 130 and 135 had a great offense better than Hopkins.

Hopkins in his prime was the better offensive fighter IMO.

I do believe Roy was the best in his prime.He was the all around better athlete and had all the tools.The problem was, he wanted to be an even better business man and avoided taking serious risks inside and outside of the ring. I'm more impressed with Hopkins' resume. Twenty years from now his accomplishments I think will overshadow Roy and Floyd's.

Joe Calzaghe conquered Roy Jones, Jr. and Bernard Hopkins and as a result, sealed his place as the best of his generation. History has spoken. But, of the remaining contenders who was the best in his prime? I'll throw the Mayweather nuthuggers a bone and include lil' Floyd in the mix. Of Hopkins, Jones, and Mayweather, I've got to vote for Hopkins. Yes, Jones beat a young Hopkins, but I do believe the Hopkins of 1997-2000 would have beaten prime Jones. Hopkins was too crafty and would have been able to eventually get in and land on Jones' glass jaw. IMO Mayweather cannot be considered because he dodged the really big hitters, ie..Kostya Tszu, Antonio Margarito, and Miguel Cotto.

Didn't you say Hatton would DESTROY Mayweather? You a certified Grade A moron.

[S.G.]

Floyd Mayweather... he has the defense, craftsmanship and smarts of B-Hop and the athleticism and offense of Roy Jones...

he's almost like both of them melded into one doubly great fighter
