    Who wins in there prime? having watch a few of the G mans fights and most RJJ's fights I think that the G man definately had what it takes to beat RJJ

    I didn't realise how dangerous he was in the right, he took msot of his opponents out the first 3 rounds, he was quick and very powerful

    How Nigel Benn got through that first round Ill never know, its just a shame what happened to the G man, if he didn;t hav that terrible injury whic hwas clear midway through the fight I think he would have beaten Benn and who knows what would have happened nxt for the G man

    Roy would have exposed him.

    Quite the beast at 160 but seems to be very overrated in a h2h sense. Far to slow and limited for prime Roy.

    McClellan would have been the most athletic boxer that Roy faced.

    Roy Jones.

    McClellan was a beast but Roy had that extra level.

    Though I may be bias given that McClellan was a ****.

    RJJ too fast and athletic for the G-Man.

    McClellan was an extremely hard puncher with a granite chin (but not a granite brain) and a very big middleweight, but also rather limited technically. I think Jones' speed would see him to a 9-3 decision win. Jones was a huge middleweight himself and had no chin problem whatsoever there... in fact, he had no chin problems at 175 either, until he was on the dark side of 30 and lost a lot of weight to go back there..

    I never quite understood all the credit G-Man gets for pretty much just destroying past prime versions of Jackson and Mugabi. And that is it..that is all he done.

    John was toast, he had already been brutally stopped 3 times in his career coming into that fight.

    Julian was 34 or something and having problems with eye injuries, which can often end careers.

    He looked pretty good winning these fights but how this warrants people considering him even coming close to touching a Prime Roy is beyond me.

    Mugabi had a rubbish chin anyway, let alone the version G-Man faced.

    And Jackson tagged him a lot in that loss, which as I'm sure you know is where the whole problem began even before the Benn fight.

    And an amateur bout between the 2 would have a reflection on a professional bout because?

    Yes when they were pretty much still kids..we all know. Doesnt really matter here, Roy proved he was the superior pro.
