    This is an interesting matchup but Mayweather probably wouldn't have taken the fight being that Roy Jones is taller more athletic and superior speed and reflexes but it would have been interseting to see how that fight played out

    Great thread bro reminds me of the epic Lolenga Mock vs Jose Luis Castillo @ 160 fight I had in my head.

    Mayweather's best weight at this time is ww, while Roy's was basically a mw draining down to fight at jmw.

    Prime for Prime I think RJJ takes this.....I think it would be similar to the RJJ vs Toney fight.

    I just think at his prime RJJ was just way too fast, way too athletic I dont know what Mayweather could do to him.

    Jones in his prime p4p would give anyone in history a run for their money

    him still fighting now is ruining his legacy imo

    At 154 Jones was re-hydrating back to almost super middle. Mayweather barely goes above 150 when he comes to Junior Middle and is therefore too small.

    There is your answer. Roy would eat him alive.

    The fight never takes place, Mayweather asks for ODST and Roid instead fights a trilogy with Sergiy Dzinzurik.

    Jones, Jones, Jones a million times Jones! Mayweather is smart enough to make sure the fight would never happen.
