Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: I'd Beat Mayweather, Pacquiao a Tough Style

[tatangb45]

Here's how I'm interpreting the article.

Roy is saying between Pac and Floyd, Pac will be the harder fight. He's saying he would probably beat Floyd, but not sure if he can beat Pac, P4P.

He's not saying that he will lose to Pac, but he would have to overcome more adverseties against Pac than Mayweather.

That's how I see it.

You are exactly right.

Well yeah, that is how it is, only people with an agenda can't comprehend it.

So what does that mean? Young Roy come mean anything from middleweight to super middle weight. Floyd/Pac and Roy never been the same size. You can't say Floyd who fought Oscar vs. Roy at 154. That wasn't his natural weight. Its still a mismatch, thats unfair

POINT is, we comparing 2 diff weight class fighters. Of course Roy wins, not cause his special gifts either

How about Floyd/Pac the same size vs Roy. Now talk that

Even same size I see Roy beaten them. Either way. he is not a clown for saying that a young Roy who fought at 154 stop ignoring would both at that weight. That's the whole point. I don't care you disagree with him or not. But, your reasoning doesn't make him a clown.

You got Ward, Bute, Dawson, Anthony Dirrell, Pascal, Calzaghe, the list goes on of fighters his size he should be talking about. So yes... he is a clown for this

Here's what I don't understand.

A lot of Pac fans in this thread are quick to say "styles make fights".

They say just because JMM basically beat Pac, that doesn't mean that RJJ would, because they have different styles. This is true, I agree with this.

But what's funny is those same fans that say the above, don't acknowledge that Mayweather is JMM on steroids, including stylistically.

This is what I'm talking about when I say Pac fans see and hear what they want to see and hear.

Neither one of those guys are the current 2 top. And, neither of those guys are ATG's. And, considering that this is coming from D'Source you do not know how the subject came about. You don't know if Roy brought it out of nowhere or if he was asked about it and just answered it.

So no, he is not a clown for this.

Of course P4P RJJ KTFO outta floyd

P4P Calderon and Calzaghe beat his ass too

Neither one of those guys are the current 2 top fighters of the division. And, neither of those guys are ATG's. And, considering that this is coming from D'Source you do not know how the subject came about. You don't know if Roy brought it out of nowhere or if he was asked about it and just answered it.

So no, he is not a clown for this.

P4P means nothing. You should worry about being the top of your own division before you get to number 1 P4P. Cause anybody can get there, doesn't mean you the best in your own division. I dont do that fighting guys that separated by 30-40 pounds, that's wack to even argue it

The question should have been what about you and Dawson or Joe

[Roman Moreno]

The question should have been what about you and Dawson or Joe

So that makes the one that is asking the question a clown. Not the one who answered it.

So again how is Roy clown.

And, yes you can talk about who would win in a fight at a weight-class where both fought at the same weight-class.

Yes you can point out that Floyd and Pac would be in a disadvantage at 154 against Roy in size. But, then you can say the both would have the advantage of being seasoned vets while Roy would be in a disadvantage of being green at 154.

Does he have a video version of the whole interview with Roy? I think it is kinda weird that dSource quote-mined this down to like 2-3 sentences. Roy usually has a bit more to say about things.

Funny thing is yesterday 95% of the Pinoy probably thought Roy was only an announcer for HBO and 95% of the Floyd stans would have probably listed him as one of their top 5 fighters.

Now the pinoy are all, "BRAVE AND LEGENDARY WARRIOR ROY JONES JR" and the Mayweather fans are calling him the most overrated fighter ever.
