To me his power and skills were better than Floyd by a mile. Floyd is good defensively when a punch comes toward Floyd he is not hit but it comes close. Roy was missed by feet and it did not come close. Even on the ropes he was not hit. He had a radar sort of like Wilfred Benitez, yet he had more power than Wilfred. Roy was like Wilfred Benitez with power. And Roy would counter incredibly well. A guy who beat Roy would have to jab him and not make any stupid mistakes. my feeling is Roy was skillwise one of the best ever but not Floyd.Originally Posted by Scrap
Can i just ask who else could Roy of fought ??Originally Posted by LegendBoxing65
roy jones IS WITHOUT DOUBT the most skilled boxer that ever lived
Pleased to make your acquaintance
A rematch with Toney to prove that the first fight was not a fluke, Maske, Williams, Eubank, Benn, and even Hearns. Hearns was still somewhat good in 1996,. But I admit Jones would have probably won at that point. I just think Jones avoided the top 3 or 4 guys at the weights he fought and fought the 5-10 rated guys too much which is the same thing Virgil Hill did in his lightheavyweight reign.. But the fact is he was so dominant, I think he would have beaten them all.Originally Posted by ICE COLD BOXING
he beat toney's ass for 12 rounds that's not a fluke....a lucky KO is a fluke..like mccall-lewis...and there was no need to avenge a sound victory...and its funny that everytime someone mentions these guys that he didn't fight (the europeans) they always assume roy was ducking them, then say I think roy would have beaten them all....it makes more sense that they avoided roy...darius was sitting ringside when roy fought virgil hill after that body shot he hopped on a plane never to return to the U.S., i don't doubt that eubank, benn, williams, and anyone else was thinking the same thing as Darius when they watched roy fight which wasOriginally Posted by LegendBoxing65

"Sixty forty I kicks yo' ass, Sixty forty I tears yo' ass up" - Roy Jones
How can Toney fight be a fluke the fight wasn't even close Eubank didn't want no part of Jones didn't want to fight Benn after what happened to his friend Gerald i can understand that oh come on Hearns he would of beaten Hearns badly Hearns wouldn't have wanted to fight a prime Roy Jones when he was that shot.Originally Posted by LegendBoxing65
Roy would have probably won.. Yes true, but to have that name on his record would have been good, and I think Hearns would have had a better shot at beating him than alot of guys he fought at the time. As for Toney, I do not mean he should have fought him because it was a questionable decision, but just to make it clear in people's minds that Toney was beaten twice rather than just once, and anyway it would have solidified Jones claim as a great fighter to beat Toney twice. It would not have hurt his career is my point and he needed some names on his resume. But I do think he is a great fighter who would have beat most guys he fought.Originally Posted by ICE COLD BOXING
