        I think at some point in the fight Floyd would ask the question of Roy's chin. Both guys are great and would be a tough fight to score. If latter-day Floyd shows up (more willing to mix it up and with more power) I would say he tests Roy at some point. On the other hand if young Floyd (more focused on defense due to being trained by Floyd Snr) shows up I think Roy outpoints him.

          Floyd since he's fought a little better opposition. Floyd will end his career undefeated also. If they fought... Floyd would get ko'd at any weight if it were prime RJJ. If they fought now I think Floyd by UD.

                Floyd has a better run, he should be higher in any ATG list. On fighting each other, I don't know coz the weight gap is huge.

                  Roy's chin wasnt exposed. He just wasn't a lightheavyweight anymore when Tarver got to him. In Roy Jones prime he beats everybody in your Top 10 all-time P4P. I'm not biased. ;-)

                    Maybe I am wrong but could have sworn Jones vs Tarver was at 175...

                      Roy is much bigger than Floyd.
