    Surprisingly it seems he feels Floyd would be easier than PAC. In some ways yes, Floyd is athletic but Roy was extra, more than pretty much anyone. If floyd was to slow it down, he would get tagged a lot.

    As for PAC, again he said he would beat him too, but he worries on the power. Roy's weakest thing was his chin.

      Roy is getting senile. Manny would be a fucking sitting duck in the ring with prime Roy. Mayweather would give him more issues do to being a complete fighter, not to mention he is a master strategist in the ring. Something Manny severely lacks.

        I agree 100%. I like Roy and I think he possibly could have beaten either guy. But the difference between Toney and Floyd is that Floyd is MUCH quicker than Toney and if Roy jumped in with one of those shots and missed Floyd had the speed, accuracy and counter punching ability to make Roy pay. Toney lacked the speed to make Roy pay.

          i think for the most part, pac would jab-jab-straight left himself into almost every trap roy lays down for him.

            A prime Roy Jones wouldn't fight Mayweather because he'd have to take the test.

              James Toney and Floyd might have simular styles but they are hardly the same fighter. Toney has multiple positive steriod test and has never had the discipline that Floyd has had over the years. Floyd trains like a madman while Toney comes to the ring with a bowling ball for a stomach. Floyd is very vesatile while Toney is stuck in his shoulder roll. RJJ is entitled to his own opinion but that doesnt mean I have to buy it.

                      styles makes fights, so i agree with roy in that pacs style may be more difficult for him then floyds. hard hitting southpaws faired better against RJ then others. Devalle knocked him down, tarver knocked him out.
