Could Floyd end his career as the best ever?

[Taeth]

since you can't read I'll say it again:

"silly as it may sound to the boxing choir..I don't really give a shit..RJJ p4p best to ever wear gloves..."

Since you want to throw out quotes here are a couple that sums up RJJ career best...

"what Roy Jones has done is exposed a real paper champion" - Merchant

"Absolutely" - Lampley

"Ohhh no, the man came out here and fought a terrific fight so don't try to tear it down now because he put on a great performance. We sold it as a Heavyweight championship" - Foreman

"The promoters sold not us" merchant

"Well, we bought it. And they're all paper champions then..." - Foreman..

Watch the first Jones-Griffin fight and you will see that a guy like Mayweather would pick Roy apart because he is throws punches that simply wouldn't land on Floyd because they are too wide and thrown from too far away.

I will completely agree though that Roy was capable of dominating c level competition better than anyone else, but not B+ or higher levels of competition.

Here we go again...same ole bullshit. Go watch this fight and go watch that fight, but let's forget about the fights were guys who weren't even an eight of Roy's speed landed flush on floyd. Let's forget about how prime floyd arguably lost to castillo a fighter not fit to carry Jones's jock strap..Let's forget chop chop landed flush and wobbled floyd. Let's forget judah unofficially dropped him. Let's forget he couldn't stop a man two weight classes smaller than him. Let's forget all of the fights that point to why Jones would knock floyd silly...Let's not mention the fact that jones spent majority of his career fighting guys naturally bigger than him and did it in dominating fashion. Let's forget that its RJJ that's is often pitted in hypothetical match ups against ALL TIME GREAT TRUE HEAVY'S when he started at 154. This self admission that anyone below heavy stands a punchers chance against roy, and @ MW-LHW Jones beats everyone in history 9 out of 10....

I am going to highlight the whole arguement because its terrible, yes Roy was a great fighter, but it's largely contested he never really ever weighed in at 154, a lot of people believe on the smaller stage he was able to fake 160 for 154.
Also the guys who landed flush punches on FLoyd didn't do it with speed, but with proper diligence(do you need me to explain the word). The whole point is that anyone of any speed can land on anyone if they fight correctly, but ROy's flamboyant style has no place against the elites of the sport. Anyone that can come close to matching his speed would likely beat him because of he depended on being so much faster than guys that if he wasn't like against Griffin he had a lot of troubles because their punches would come straighter and land before his.

I think Roy was the greatest fighter against anyone who wasn't in his class athletically, but that was his one true advantage, all his genius and abilities were based on that.
