    pretty equal skill but i would give RJJ the node because his power was much better.have great defense and speed, so they never get hit, i can't beleive Floyd would say this.

      I'd say at this point its about even. Floyd is on Roy's level talent wise, but his career is still very young.

        right now, if they fought a middle or light middle, floyd would UD rjj. right now, he is better than rjj, but career wise, and rjj in his prime is better...for now. if floyd cleans up his division, and can beat judah....we will see what happens, but its bound to be exciting

          I think Mayweather has better skills than RJJ,but RJJs reflexes are on another planet.

          As for Benn and McLennan,I think Benn had more raw natural talent,if Benn fought for the world title on his debut it would of been 50/50 thats the kind of raw natural talent he had.Although McLennan developed in to a pretty awesome boxer-puncher as the 80s turned into the 90s and had obvious abilities developed,his ring generalship and the way he timed things so well was a sight to behold.

          I have to say that 87-89 Benn threw the hardest punches I have ever seen a middleweight throw,Jacksons best KO was Graham but I saw Benn knockouts 87-89 that were even harder punches than that,some of his knockouts sounded like a gun going off.87-89 Benn would literally try to kill you with every single punch right from the opening bell,he had bad intentions,he was a nasty mofo back then with a bottom-heavy physique for powerpunches and skinny upper body for speed.But after Michael Watson exposed Benns lack of a plan B it was a complete change in Benn he was no longer a badboy because his confidence had disappeared and in america he changed into a top-heavy physiqued fighter with skinny legs and a fighter who never put all his power and effort into a punch anymore and rather would place a punch to pace himself more,at Supermiddleweight Benn became ever more of a top-heavy physiqued punchplacer until McLennan when he tried to roll back the yrs.

          As for the fight itself,McLennan and Benn,there is obviously no wonder why McLennan ended up in a wheelchair,Benn was such a hard hitter and McLennan simply took too many punches over 10 brutal rounds,hes a contender for the guy who could absorb punches best and was so ****ing strong that he didnt ever go over.

            PBF needs a nemesis. Ali had Frazier, Holmes had Norton, Batman had Joker So far, no one has risen to PBF's level of competition and without it, people will wonder if he has the heart of a lion. RJJ seemed to have it in the first Tarver fight. He was down on points and came back to win. But that was all erased in their second fight.
            lol... and JUYJUY had Parodius and vice versa

                To be the best, you first have to believe it. I can't blame him for that.

                  And Roy Jones wasn't much better, but atleast Jones was actually quite respectable as a person in his first 10 years as a pro (he did turn into a ****ing ******* these last five years though).

                  o shut the hell up...i hate ppl who act like they get so emotional over what another person says...hes not talking about u so u saying "hes bad for the sport of boxing" is out of line
