    Two good stand-up boxers, both with lethal right hands. Uncle Roger I think was quicker, but Paul had the better chin. Who wins?

    I happen to like Mayweather a tad better. I grew up watching old Rog' very closely and felt that his tactics gave a lot of good fighters real hell.. Even in his losing efforts to Julio Cesar Chavez, I would have picked Mayweather to have beaten a lot of other good fighters on those nights.. Paul was good and might be able to pull it off, but I think Roger was better IMHO...

    Roger would be leading on points when Jimmy caught up to him around the eighth or ninth round, and stop him.
