    If you had a time machine and could bring back prime Roy or prime Mayweather, which fighter would you bring back?

    Prime Roy was more entertaining to me.

    Can i bring back a few others as well? id rather bring back Jones Calzaghe Eubank Benn Collins and squeeze Toney til he **** out 100 plus pounds and launch em into todays supermiddle division for a big free for all.

    On a serious note, Jones easily i admire mayweathers skills greatly and we'll miss him when he's gone but Roy in his pomp was wonderful to watch, the sheer speed of the guy used to leave me in awe.

    If it was to bring them back to today's landscape I'd say Mayweather. More interesting fights as he'd have more confidence and fight more at 154, RJJ would be interesting but I just don't find him running amok in the upper weights entertaining.

    Both would absolutely dominate (Jones from the 160-175 range and Mayweather from 130-140), but I'd choose to bring back a peak Roy Jones. Although seeing Mayweather beat the hell out of Gamboa and Broner would be awesome.

    Jones was far more entertaining. More action, amazing knockouts.

    Like them both.

    But it has to be Jones, he was just spectacular in his prime.

    Jones-Ward
    Jones-Dawson
    Jones-Pablo Hernandez(Can I dream?)
    Jones-Golovkin
    Jones-Martinez

    He'd KO them all, but it would be great stuff.
