      Roy Jones was the best out of the bunch. P4P he would have beat all fairly easily in all their primes.

      He went out so hard and fast ya'll musta forgot?

        Lennox Lewis should be in there for Roy Jones. But Pac wins hands down.

          Some observations:

          Greatest opponents - Pernell (Chavez, Tito, Oscar, McGirt, etc.)

          Toughest career - Manny (No early promotion, no money, fighting foreign countries, fighting in opponent's hometown)

          Most physically gifted - Roy followed by Manny

          Best technical skills - Pernell followed by Floyd

          Only undefeated record - Floyd

              I chose Mayweather because Bernard Hopkins wasn't a choice.

                  Lewis isn't even in consideration.

                  Or anywhere close to it.

                    because he ain't good enough

                    greatest WELTERWEIGHT fighter of our era though.
