Well I just feel they are equivalent.
Floyd: Superfeather, Lightweight, LightWelter, Welter, Light Middle. =5

Jones:Light Middle, Middle, supermiddle, lightheavy, Heavy.=5

Of the five weights they competed in Floyd won world titles at 5.
Of the five weights Roy competed in he won world titles at 4. (He outgrew Light middle.)

At The highest weight at which he won a world title Roy took on the most beatable World champ available in John Ruiz.

At the highest weight at which he won a title, Floyd took on De la Hoya, a genuine (if over the hill) legend.

Roy's big names: W Hopkins, W Toney, W Ruiz, L Johnson, L Tarver.

Floyds big names: W Corrales, W Castillo, WQ de la Hoya, W Hatton, W Gatti, W Judah, W Chavez.


And for the record....I'm not at all fond of Floyd but damn what a fighter!
