    There is a debate going on in another thread as to who is better prime for prime and will have the better ATG ranking. Roy Jones Jr or Juan Manuel Marquez

    Marquez's career is not over yet. Right now it is Jones by a mile.

    I had to put this nuthugger in his place. JMM is a fine fighter but he's not in Jones' class.

    Although JMM is still fighting but has a way to go.

    Jones clearly,JMM has to beat Mayweather and Pac and then we can take this discussion serious.

    I meant to pick Jones. But JMM's career isnt over yet so we have to see.

    It's not even close, you've got to freaking hate RJJ to not have him ahead.

    Prime for Prime? Look at what he was doing to Hopkins, Toney, Johnson, Griffin and co in his prime.

    Marquez has never dominated other P4P fighters in the way RJJ did.

    I thought u meant boxing skill.

    I like the form and discipline, fluidity of JMM

    RJJ is in his own class; awkward with amazing speed!

    That's what I thought, so I voted Marquez, but now I've actually read the opening post, Jones by a mile. :smoke
