May. There were no flaws in his game. RJJ mostly got by by being more athletic. -
Skill...Mayweather. Talent...Roy.
Prime for prime the better fighter...Roy imo. Prime Floyd looked beatable vs Castillo and got wobbled and touched up by guys like Corley and Augustus. Roy absolutely blasted that level of opposition.Comment

Mayweather more Skilled but Roy Jones Jr. was the better AthleteComment

Floyd Mayweather is the best overall boxer to have fought in my lifetime.
He never lost, and fought in so many championship fights.
He’s annoying and everything, but Floyd is the best, not of all time, but of his generation.
Teofimo Lopez, Terence Crawford or Tyson Fury may surpass his legacy, though. It remains to be seen.Comment

Athletic.....??What about his killer KO punch in either hand, what about his boxing IQ which was very high, what about his dazzling speed and footwork.. You say athletic...Roger bannister was athletic... Roy Jones was a super top quality fighter.
Mayweather was a safetcy first guy who bored people to tears, so that they got up and walked out at his fights. Which incidentally was commented on by Larry Merchant during a fight. He also cherrypicked, and not least, avoided certain fighters, as well as getting a few decisions from his pet judges that he didn't deserve. As well he always made sure he had a good advantage over everybody he fought, or else he didn't fight. When he was at 130 was when he was at his best. After that it wa sheer cunning and dubious opponent selection.
Jones, clearly outclassed every one of his opponents however good until he made that silly move of going down from heavy to light heavyComment
