    Pacquiao is far greater than Roy Jones is.

    Not even a debate bro.

      I believe there is A lot that could be debated. Infact some would say his undefeated streak surpasses Pacquiaos whole career... And I would be one of those people.

        If B-Hop isn't included, the tread is automatically irrelevant.

            I don't think that guy is meant to be taken seriously lol

            RJJ is better.
            Pacquiao could still keep fighting and do something amazing maybe lol

              No disrespect to Bernard, Because I am a huge fan of him and his craft, but Hopkins was never as physically imposing or as exciting to watch. Though I believe Pacquiao was my hype than skill, compared to Jones Jr; he has a huge following!

                  But Hopkins is a greater fighter then both imo due to his longevity and accomplishments
