Another reason Roy isnt hated on like Floyd is, Horus...

[Dynamite Kid]

Roy would peck away at Mayweather from the outside with his speed and just keep switching the angle and never stay infront of Mayweather long enough for Mayweather to land his effective counter punches.

Floyd would have to get out of his envelope and that is something he rarely does post SFW divsion.

floyd is like b-hop and jones jr rolled into one super fighter

Only Floyd has never faced a fighter as intelligent as Jones or with the angles and counter punching ability,power,speed of Jones.

Jones would do to Floyds philly shell what he did to Toney's ..........pot shot his way to a decision by staying on the outside using his hand speed and superior footwork. Floyd's style is based on sucking people into range by making them miss so he can counter just like Toney and Jones is smart enough to know how to peck away and not be there for the receipt after he punches.

RJJ = average fighter with GREAT athletic ability. You take away his athletic ability and your left with RJJ vs Johson, Tarver, Calzaghe...where dude showed he couldn't fight against the ropes/ deal with pressure...he wasn't even that good on the inside. It takes more then an athlete to beat Floyd

Not taking anything away from a prime RJJ but on a P4P match up against Floyd

Floyd >>>> RJJ

******est post I have heard....You cant take physicial tool away from anyone and say if this fighter didnt have this, then...

Like saying if MJ could not jump, or bird could not shoot.

Pound per pound it is a good match...as Roy is faster than Mayweather, but he is a super quick pot shotter with pots shots form all angles inside and out..and he was so quick that he could catch you coming in at all times. Your not gonna out box Jones, that includes mayweather going shot for shot, Jones was simply tooo fast. If you do deductive reasoning...ina pound per pound fight one of two things would have to give.

a. Mayweather fighting roy at say welter a catch weight, mean that Mayweather is not the blazing fast fighter he was at 130 but roy based on simply logic, would be even faster than he was at 160 and hit harder. Now lets see if Roy is already faster than Leonard and Mayweather at 160 and then he moved down to 147 being the athlete he is...then he would literally humiliate mayweather....unless.


mayweather applies pressure to roy can use his defense (which is the best i have ever seen) and make roy miss and get inside of roys 78inch reach (vs 72 inch for mayweather) and make roy fight a more physicial fight....

Hmmm Mayweather make roy fight more phyiscial. sorry people but roy is much better pound per pound and head to head than mayweather.

roy did not lose any fights or come close except on dq, which he immediately answered with a 1 round ko...Floyd had issues ( I thought he won however) vs Castillo, and then vs Dlh. Lets be honest do any body on here think prime Roy jones barely beat dlh by split decision? Roy never lost until he betrayed his body and damaged his fast twitch muscles, etc... but rapid weight and muscle loss

Roy not only fought the champs at 168 and 175 but he campaigned up there fighting numerious top contenders...mayweather beat baldomir and judah at welter and hatton a blown up jr welter who showed in his previous fight at welter that he had nothing at 147.

Prime roy toys with hatton so bad it is unbelievable.

roy went up 40 pounds and beat a guy who outweighed him by 20-30 pound and he did not fight like lionel richie (like mayweather did vs dlh) he out boxed, out ppunched, everything ruiz. No ruiz is not a dlh, but dlh was far from great the night he faced mayweather. In fact dlh had lost like 50% of his last 8-10 fights.

Roy also has 2 wins vs top all time fighters, and Mayweather has 1 vs a shot version of that fighter. Mayweather does have some good wins vs very good fighters however, and in all actuallity i think their resume is pretty close, but
Jones simple is better.

Mayweather may do more things proficiently better. He may jab, he may have better defense, he may do many things better, but roys reflexes , natural athletic ability, strenght,, all where tools that he used to success that impacted the end result the same or even better. He used his reflexes and counters as a jab...so he did not have to set people up vis a jab...he speed was that.
