    definately the truth within this era where nobody is mandated to fight anyone.

        I would say Floyd looked more beatable but I vote for Roy because Roy didnt take a lot of his opponents seriously where as Floyd braced himself for ww3 every fight.

        As for the Castillo fight, Jose took that in my opinion. The crowd and the commentating does make it exaggerated but Jose cut off the ring and bullied Floyd on the ropes, and for the record both fighters fought hurt not just Floyd. Regardless of who one, I think thats one of the best fights I have seen and it gets me mad that the fight itself doesnt get the credit it deserves

          you picked roy, because roy played with his oppisition
          that makes sense? does'nt that just further prove how unbeatable the man was at his prime?
          he played with them, and they could'nt land a punch, and were completely dominated and most ko'd
          and because of that you picked roy as the more beatable one.. :gay:

              Lot of *****s in here, Roy Jones in his prime was clearly a much better fighter than Floyd.

                Too difficult to say. Floyd never looked beatable in any of his bouts up to now. He had a tough time against Castillo and he still won. RJJ never looked beatable in his prime and his obvious downfall was the weight he shed between the Ruiz and Tarver fight. But by that time, he was past his prime.

                  Mayweather definitely more beatable. He almost got beat by Castillo and didn't fight Cotto, Marg, and a lot of other guys that could have given him a test.
                  With the exception of Dariusz M, Jones pretty much fought everyone there was to fight and was unstoppable with impregnable defense and cat-like reflexes.

                    I dont know how you can say he has never looked beatable .......DLH,Castillo both pushed him to the brink. I mean if DLH did not do what he always does which is gas out in the last 3 rounds of a fight he might have beaten Floyd. I dont wanna disrespect a good fighter but ive never viewed Castillo as an elite fighter.

                      Thats a really tough question. I can't answer that question....lol

                      They were both unstoppable in their primes. I think Roy was a little more dominant than Floyd was...
