Where does Roy Jones rank among the all-time greats?

Where would you put him?

Poll added. Vote and discuss...

I realize the extreme options of #1 and less than top #200 are ridiculous, but I wanted to accommodate everyone's opinion.

Hard to be specific, but my own Estimation would be outside the top 50 - anywhere between say 70 and 100.

Yes, that seems correct, everything considered.

I've seen people rate him top 10 based solely on Compubox stats.

And that's the truth.

Top 50. People are fooled by the shot Roy from 2005-now.

Skillwise? Very very high.
Career? I dont know. Hes had a great career but no career defining wins really. And he has really taken a hit by keeping fighting these last 5+ years.

The moment he beat Ruiz, he still wasn't one of the 50 greatest to ever lace them up.

I was going to rank him higher considering his great talent, but when I consider his entire career I couldn't put him in the top 50.

He's was caught using steroids in 2000 and since then he's been stopped three times and lost five - he should have quit while he was on top. And he avoided fighting the underrated Dariusz M. who said he was willing to come to the US and fight Jones. And he should have given the improved version of Hopkins a rematch in the late 90s or early 00s.

I don't know..

he really poleaxed his career
