    Before ya answer this question,I undastand how most people would think this is a no brainer,ROBINSON WOULD DEF BEAT ROY IN HIS PRIME!!,let me remind yall,Roy Jones Jr in his prime waz indestructable/Unstoppable,Lightning speed and tremondous power,and honestly no one from 160-175 had no chance in hell at beating RJ at his peak,not Tarver,Johnson or Joe Calzaghe!!! neither of them would have even survive with RJ back then.

    On the other hand we have the greatest boxer of all time,another legend Sugar Ray Robinson who delivered combinations of speed,accuracy and tremondous power of his own and waz an extraordinary talented and most skilled fighter of his generation!!! BUT WHO WOULD WIN IF THESE 2 WERE 2 HAVE MET BACK THEN AT 175 POUNDS? If u ask me i say its a toss up,it can go either way!! this fight would def be close though!!,I dont think neither would dominate each other

    Ray never fought someone that heavy. Let alone someone that fast.

    Roy would be weighing 185lbs and be faster, stronger and more powerful that the smaller Ray Robinson.

    Roy by murder at 175.

    Considering that Ray never weighed in over 168 1/2lbs..

    ROY BY KO.

    No. Just no.

    Ray Robinson is a great.

    It's unfair to put him in match-ups at 175.

    Roy would get knocked out. Would not matter anyway Jones would never take the fight. He was called Reluctant Roy for a reason.

    :deal

    Roy Jones schools him only because 175 is not fair at all for Robinson.
