Floyd is a classically trained boxer. Doesn't mean he's better than Roy was, just that he does things more by the book.
We are talking about when they both were just starting out and Jones had good jab good handspeed good power great reactions yes he was bit unorthdox but that doesn't mean he was any less polished than Floyd was when he was starting out.
Like I said Mayweather was technically better than Roy when they were younger, and has always been technically better than Roy. Roy didn't use his jab all that much, and he never landed it all that stiff... Floyd easily had the better jab. He also had better defense, sharper punches.
