      At the specs you've outlined, Roy. Roy would get on his bike and outpoint SRR. However, I'm not altogether certain this is a fair fight to propose, since Roy at 160 in my mind is like SRR at 147; it's his lowest weight, and he's much more of a beast at it than SRR. So Roy at 160, but if we're talking a P4P matchup between the Roy of 160 and the SRR of 147, then SRR wins for me.

            He accomplished more at 160 then 147.

            Plus it's the closest weight but we can change it up and put Roy's 168 run and 160 run together because if it was rays time period there would be no 168 an it would make it fair cause with all those fights Roy would be more seasoned

              I'm not sure you can categorise 160 as SRR's best weight simply because he spent more time there and achieved more. I know there's no film of him at 147, but by all accounts his ability was even more pronounced at welter.

              And I don't see why we can't discuss a P4P matchup, rather than having to put two guys of disparate natural weight against each other.

                I'd lean on Roy.

                  Hey I'm all for it lol. I made this thread because someone said Roy at 160 wouldn't even beat a washed up version of Robinson but feel free to bring up what you like.

                    If you want to be fair you need to bring the weight down to 160 because Robinson was a natural welterweight. That means he was about the same size as a big 140 lb. fighter of today because He had no problems making 147 the day of the fight. He might have been the best welterweight of all time but not the best middleweight of all time in my opinion. Roy Jones was a much bigger man. Jones was faster and hit harder than Robinson. Robinson came to fight so Jones would KO him in my opinion. Robinson lost middleweight tittle fights to Gene Fulmer, Basillo, a welterweight, who spotted him 6 lbs., Paul Pender, and Randy Turpin. I have seen plenty of films of Robinson and consider him somewhat overrated. He had flaws. Over the years the oldtimers have firmly established him as the greatest PFP that ever lived and you are not supposed to question this. At welterweight maybe, but not at middleweight. Not to me. If those other guys could beat him Jones would beat him because he was alot better than any of them. I know Robinson beat Fulmer, Basillo, and Turpin in rematches but Jones would not have lost to them even once.
