    Well Manny did have the luxary of a deeper division there is no denying that .But as far as accomplishments Jones gets the edge ..

    The 20 lb leap to heavy is what has him above most fighters let alone Manny ..You can call some of his opponents bums but they are not what made his career or makes him an all time great ,he just made his oppoenents look like bums .Manny's a great warrior but he wars with them all ..Jones didn't have to no matter who he fought .

    I wish people would stop with this "owned" nonsense. Most of us are adults, here to talk boxing, not induldge in childish games of points scoring.

    Man, you were owned when you were trying to say about what he said about owning when that other guy pointed out that the other one had been owned! This thread is full of OWN, man!

    I think calling Pac a glass jawed fraud is a bit harsh.

    I picked Pacquiao on the strength of his recent run of domination, however prime Roy was just about the most invincible fighter in boxing history.

    I rate both very high, but Pacman higher, among the very best.
    I find Roy more entertaining though.
