      "Terrible" Terry Norris.......good fighter

        For me.

        1. Jones
        2. Whitaker
        3. Mayweather
        4. Bhop
        5. Holyfield


        James Toney is on that list IMO......he fought and beat some very good opponents in the 90's......he was also more active than any of the other guys on the list

          You will never see another roy jones in your lifetime. he was years ahead of the field in terms of sheer god given ability. were talking reflexes, hand eye coordination, speed, etc etc. jones fought with his f'n hands down and dominated people. he wasnt in the toughest era in terms of competition, but wins over hopkins/toney are great no matter how u slice it. jones accomplishments were hall of famr worthy, but in terms of natural ability he's so far ahead of anyone ive ever seen it's not even funny.


          natural ability wise.....the nickname superman is appropriate......to me RJJ from 1994-1999 was just downright sensational.........

            he'll beat Floyd......and Floyd KNOWS that ****!!!......Shane is probably the hardest puncher p4p on that list if you exclude Tyson!!.....Shane belongs there my dude!!
