    Who in history would've beaten Roy Jones @ 168 or 175

    Prime 4 Prime at those weight classes, who do you think could have beaten him?

    Sugar Ray Robinson?

    even without the resume, roy jones jr makes the top 60 off talent alone. when you include his resume he is top 20.

        I know am going to get crucified here but have alway believe that Joe Calzaghe would have beaten RJJ prime for prime.

          I hope you haven't judged that based on the fight.

            He just wrote always. So I think he means always.

              Qawi might have brought the fight to Roy, and Calzaghe could potentially be a threat.

                  At 168 I wouldn't favor anybody beating Roy. Doesn't mean he would of gone through undefeated. But, I just nobody I would favor.

                  At 175 on the other hand is a different story. I would favor Michael Spinks to beat him. And, I think Bob Foster that power was amazingand maybe even Ezzard Charles who in his prime was a very skilled fighter, even when he was passed his prime at HW was still a skilled fighter beats him.

                    Calzaghe would've been eating fists all night. terrible style matchup for him.

                    On another note, I'd say Bob Foster would've put Jones to sleep at 175. I'd pick Spinks over him as well.
