Toney who's one of the best defensive fighters of all time. Roy was just phenomenal back in those days
Jones? He didn't get hurt for the first 15 years of his career, his skills were mostly reliant on his speed though, but he had great defense and reflexes because of it.

Jones was undefeated for 15 years, his first loss came when he was 35 years old..(of course, that DQ to Montell G. isnt a loss)he was unstoppable in his prime, a legend...
Roy Jones Jr. is my favorite fighter EVER. But Montell was giving him troubles he shouldn't have in the first fight. This was similar to Joe Louis vs. Walcott once Louis knew he could hurt Walcott the second fight didn't last long at all. The greats Roy fought weren't the kind of guys who would have given him a really hard fight. I think Roy would have had some difficulties fighting a really fast guy. He kept his hands lower than Robinson. P4P Robinson at WW might even hit as hard as Roy. I think ROy has faster reflexes and speed p4p than anyone, but he comes second technically to a lot of fighters. If Mayweather was bigger and could take Roy's punches I think if he came forward like he did against Zab Judah it would be really hard for Roy because p4p Mayweather would catch him, and Roy is not a great fighter when his back is on the ropes.
