    Never really grew up during Roy's hey day but I've seen almost all his highlight reels and fights on youtube. He was a freak of nature. You could say roy was faster or just as fast as Floyd was in their primes even though Roy is much bigger which is scary.

        The Jones-Hopkins fight is amazing to watch. B-Hop wasn't even doing that much wrong really, Roy was just untouchable. Just on a whole other level.

          in a fight between two fighters heavily reliant on speed, i'll go with the faster(and more powerful) guy who will also use his feet

            Roy is faster and has much more power P4P, he also rarely gets hit in his prime, and he did it against better opposition (Toney, Hopkins). This is really no contest. Roy is much better P4P

              Roy would pulverize Mayweather.

                Roy Jones at 168 is FASTER than Floyd at lightweight. This has been validated by Montel Griffin, who fought/sparred both in their primes. He said Roy was much faster than Floyd. That's insane.

                Roy beats him six days a week and twice on Sunday.

                    Roy by UD

                    I tend to think that this fight would look like the Judah fight but instead of Judah fading after five rounds, Roy would be able to keep it up for 12 rounds..

                    Prime Roy schooled Hopkins and toney.. No doubt he would beat floyd

                      I remember Roy knocking down Reggie Johnson with the quickest 1-2 I've ever seen in my life. It was speed of light quick. Prime Jones was a freak. Mayweather would get shut down and shut out.
