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

[Carpe Diem]

LMAO at these floyd fans thinking they know more than roy jones jr

RJJ said it himself that floyd is easy work and that Pac could hatton him because he knows he has a glass chin and Pac is P4P one of the hardest and fastest punches in history.

This is common sense if you really think about it

[hugh grant]

RJJ is better than Floyd no doubt. He was doing what Floyd was doing but against better fighters.

RJJ athletism would be too much for FLoyd. All that shoulder roll stuff wouldnt work on RJJ hed get caught eventually and koed out.

RJJ knows Pac is better than FLoyd.

roy jones telling it as it is

Throw away size, weight, and age out the window, we asked the legend himself Roy Jones, Jr. how he would've done against today's top two boxers, Manny Pacquiao, and Floyd Mayweather, Jr. in his prime.

I'm inclined to agree.

Neither are anywhere near as fast as RJJ in his prime.

Manny only has a puncher's chance. Floyd does as well, but I believe that he'd get caught a lot less than Manny.

Jones in his prime was inhuman.

Only haters deny this.

As a "young" RJ fan, I am absolutely certain that a young RJ could not have beaten Floyd Mayweather Jr. at 147-154lbs, ABSOLUTELY NOT. Not only that, but here is no way RJ would win a fight against Manny at 147lbs either. Just reading what he said, let's you know he'd a got knocked out especially by Manny. "He's a south paw...survive his power." That's his plan, to survive his power. Lol. Roy done and it hurts me to say it over and over, but he's even done mentally. I do however like it when he commentates boxing matches, he should do that more often.

Get better acquianted with boxing before you embrace your above conclusion as "close to being accurate".

No one is discussing today's RJJ. We are talking about RJJ in his prime.

And if you were more familiar with a prime RJJ, your opinion might be very different.

It's obvious Roy isn't going to be making the same money he made in his prime. If Floyd fights when he is 40, do you think he will be earning millions and doing big ppv numbers.


Now, lets get one thing straight......Floyd has higher career earnings than Roy. I'm not here to even debate this. However, Roy is pretty well off, regardless of his tax issues, which Floyd and Manny also have themselves.


Floyd has gotten his cars repo and owed the IRS a ton of money....however that doesn't mean he isn't caked up. Same **** with Roy.

My whole point is this; Roy has money (not as much as Floyd) so why would he hate on another fighter getting paid? To me that doesn't make much sense at all.

I agree which is why I I don't agree that Roy Jones is hating on Mayweather

[Atreyu Khalil]

roy was knocked down by lou del valle. jones said it was a slip, it might have been a slip, kind of looked like a slip, but a punch did land.

Well yes I was aware of that instance but that was a slip I guess...but when I said knock down I meant a legitimate knockdown.
