Roy wide UD.

I don't pick anyone over prime Roy. I think Golovkin would have as good a chance as anyone, it would be at least as close as Jones/Hopkins 1 but Jones wins it, imo.

i have to go back watch some of roys prime stuff now thats it mentioned, yall tend to forget out of sight out of mind, hard to pick against one of the greats primed v anyone

Prime Roy was sensational, a once in a generational talent. I do believe the best Roy was at 168 though. One of my favorite fighters ever is GGG, but I don't think he can contend with Roy's speed and movement. Roy wouldn't be able to get GGG out of there with a KO though because GGG chin is made of adamantium. Roy by UD.

I think Roy gets it on points. His speed and movement at 160-175 was unmatched and he had power to back it up. Close fight though.

Ggg never had a prime though,he like Beterbieve became champ old af,& faced his 1st true threat in Jacobs 1 fight before Canelo when he was said to have been aged remember?

In Roy's last fight at 160 he dominated a prime Hopkins. Jones was just levels above anyone at 160, including Golovkin.
GGG would always have a puncher's chance but Roy 's athleticism wins him a UD every time.
