So what he was by far a better light heavyweight, and he beat Archie Moore twice, same with CHarley Burley 2x, Joey Maxim 3x, Bivin a few times, etc.
By the time he was a heavyweight he was a relatively washed up compared to his prime.

I know Roy dominated 175 for years but the only names really worth mentioning handed him a L in a big way.
i was gonna go for Archie Moore but then remembered that Ezzard Charles beat him so my pick is Charles
Ezzard Charls without a doubt. He beat everybodu else for God's Sakes
Tunney #1. Conn #2 (at least at the time of his first fight with Louis).
I voted for Foster although I got to admit the light heavyweight division is not a division I have given much thought to.
Also I bet the reason Roy Jones has most votes is because he is the only boxer a lot of the voters have heared of.:-\
Bob Foster. I'm a hypocrite cause' I say I'm totally unbiased but Foster for me; he's my all time fave. Anyone says different I'm not listening. Sorry Adam GB I had to steal this from you I thought it was funny as f#ck....

Bob Foster, i cannot see Roy Jones jr withstanding the power of Foster.
Foster, Moore, Charles, RJJ and Spinks are all GREAT fighters. Im taking Roy on being an athletic freak.
