    I love watching Floyd and even more so when he was at the lower weights, but Roy Jones was so ridiculously athletic it was unreal. Roy Jones is my favorite fighter of all time because we'll never see that mixture of speed, reflexes and power ever again.

          Roy was the greatest fighter of the last 50 years, possibly longer.

          He was one of the most entertaining fighters I've ever watched.

              If Roy was dominating his opponent and felt he had the fight in the bag, he'd go the extra mile to close the show in entertaining fashion for the fans. Floyd can give a *** about the paying fans. His performance against Baldomir proved it.

                They both talked smack outside the ring, but RJJ actually backed it up INSIDE the ring.

                his personality matched his fighting style. Floyd's does not.

                    FOTD (90's) and one of the most entertaining (and skilled) fighters of all time, Pound for Pound legend Roy Jones Jr.

                      Roy Jones was not as fortunate as Floyd to actually have the number of qualified fighters to pick and chose from. On the other hand, Roy Jones would not have stayed in a division for so long without fighting each and every one of them. This is where Floyd gets criticized daily on.

                      If Roy were Floyd, he would have fought Cotto when he was undefeated, Margo when he beat Cotto. He would have even moved up to try to beat Paul Williams and Martinez and he would have fought Manny without calling for PEDs testing.

                      Nobody would have been calling Roy a ducker/dodger ....
