Jones had a higher ceiling, with higher caliber wins
Pac had longevity
prime, in their natural divisions... Jones was much harder to beat
he was near impossible to beat
whereas Pac lost to Morales and probably Marquez at least once
Jones was a killer
their careers had different bell-curves
the green line is Pac, the blue line is Roy...
and the red line is Mayweather

Every time I get unbanned it’s the same dudes arguing about the same stuff.

This is like the argument of who vs Ali and Tyson is better. It comes down to what eras you were accustomed to. If you grew up with Roy then rjj was the man. If you saw a young Manny Pacquiao vs lehdwo lebala for the first time, you would.say pac.

Pacquiao by a mile. Well, maybe not a mile but it's definitely not a question.
Roy at his best was as good as any fighter I've ever watched, but Manny's accomplishments put Roy to shame.

ceteris paribus... if all things are equal
so, if both guys were naturally the same weight... nobody moving up/down
nobody in their right mind would back Pacquiao to beat Jones

Many people had Pac favourite to beat floyd having started 3 divisions lower so why wouldn't people have Pac favourite to beatbrjj? Pac s the p4pking. If Pac started at middleweight h ed win titles up to super, super, super heavyweight

Hands down it's Pacquiao. Manny had the more storied career. Not only that but he was also in some very memorable and entertaining bouts too; Most of which he won and some of them he lost. However, over all his resume was much better than Roy Jones.
