Roy Jones Jr. only had one fight at heavyweight, he beat WBA champ John Ruiz by clear decision). How do you think that version of Roy Jones would compete against the current champions?
I think he would have a hard time and probably lose to most, maybe even all, of them.

Are we talking Prime RJJ ere?

If where talking prime RJJ maybe he would have a chance v 1 or 2 off the champions not vs Vitali or Sergei tho, he would have a chance vs Rahman or Valuev (but mann he huge RJJ lookd tiny v RUIZ imaging him in their with VALUEV lol, only the upside tho VALUEV the worst heavyweight champion ive ever seen he awful,

No really a big fan off RJJ never have he should ave faced LEWIS rather than RUIZ, LEWIS V ROY JONES tht would have been fun 2 watch

He'd beat Rahman and lose to the others, even Valuev.

Don't you think Rahman's power would be too much for him?

NOPE, he would lose to all of them, if toney cant beat rahman (which i thought he did) then there is no way in hell that roid could. roid needs to retire almost as bad as holychamp does.

I don't think Rahman would hit him enough to get him out of there, save for a miracle punch. I'd take Jones of then to beat Rahman.
