    Who would have won? I think RJJ even though I think SRR is the best ever I can't see how anyone could beat peak RJJ

    RJJ would savagely beat down SRR. I know some old timer is going to get offended, but get real. RJJ was the best athlete to ever step foot in a ring and SRR would be dumbfounded at his speed/power.

    I doubt he would have been dumbfounded RJJ didn't fight any one close to the skill and power SRR had

    thats about the biggest cliche's on this site. 'he never fought a man even half as good as him' change the record.

    Boxing is the only sport where people will say an athlete from the 1950s will beat one from the 1990s.

    Jones gets his Glass Jaw obliterated. SRR fought many more tougher fighters than Jones ever dreamed of.

    What about it?

    Records were made to be broken, athletes get better. I'm sure when I'm 70 Im gonna be telling the kids those fighters wouldn't stand a chance against the likes of Pacquiao.
