Sorry I couldnt make it past this ridiculous statement. He beat BHop at MW and then left Bernard to rule the division for the next million years or so and moved up and beat the top guy at 168. Floyd has a pretty good resume also, but I feel Roy wanted to keep proving himself whereas Floyd is content with what hes already accomplished.

I'm a big Jones fan, he's my favorite fighter, all time. But the problem here is, you're comparing the legacy of a 41 year old to a 33 year old. You compare 33 year old Jones to 33 year old Mayweather, they're not too far away from eachother because remember it was at 34 that Roy went up to fight Ruiz for his 4th title/weight class at heavyweight while at 33 Mayweather is a champion in 5 weight class, and has not retired yet. We don't know if Floyd decides to go up to Middleweight for one last fight or something. Anything is possible.
