Id probably give the edge to Jones but the James Toney (who weighed 214 lbs a month before this 168 fight) and Hopkins (who hadnt yet fought anyone) that faught Jones can not compare to the prime Leonard, Duran, Benitez, Hagler, etc that Hearns fought. Oh and McCallum was pretty much passed it when Jones fought him

Thomas Hearns vs Roy Jones at 160

Roy Jones is the most overrated boxer in history imo. The guy never took risk and his best wins was a wet behind the ears Hopkins and a weight drained Toney.

I'm not sure about what the outcome would be at 160 pounds since that wasn't Roy Jones Jr's best / most natural weight division. It was 168 pounds where he performed at his best. The odds are closer to even at 160 pounds. However, at 168 pounds, it's lopsided and Roy Jones Jr either stops Thomas Hearns in the mid rounds or wins a decision.

The only way Hearns would beat Roy is by tko/Ko Roy was hard to hit win rounds against and a big puncher I think he would outpoint hearns in a style he used to beat Toney
