Not sure I understand what your asking in this thread. Your saying who would win if they were the same size? or Who did more and looked more impressive P4P in their prime. If they were the same size that would be a great fight both are the truth.

Roy with out dudes, Floyd is a great fighter, but RJJ is something different to everyone.
The speed of their combinations, your reflexes, excellent defense, but his boxing was based on the attack. The best thing I saw. Floyd is one of my five favorites, but Roy is better. Great boxers

I think this is a null topic though. Roy's style is more fitting at those weight classes as floyd's is at the lower weights. that wasn't the best explanation lol but its kind of like apples and oranges to me. Lets stick to comparing guys in remotely the same weight range.

Originally posted by gqjohnb View PostI think Floyd has some skills that would make him competitive against Roy. Now if you were to take Roy at 154 and the floyd that fought at 154 against Oscar than obviously Roy would beat him easily but thats a complete mismatch.
I think Roy would win, but Roy was extremely green in the few fights he had at 154 early in his career.
Floyd was out of his weight class at 154 when he fought Oscar.
Now I think Floyd actually fair decent at 154, he has grown into his body after his layoff.

in his prime, RJJ was nearly untouchable (ask Pazienza in the 6th round...first time in CompuBox history where a fighter didn't land a single punch). yeah yeah, car accident...etc.
Jones challenged himself moving up and down weight classes. Whooped Ruiz via Wide UD.
he beat undefeated Champion James Toney, young Bernard Hopkins, IBF Champ Reggie Johnson, Virgil Hill.
come on man.....p4p all-time (obviously they wouldn't fight each other), RJJ ranks above Floyd.
