    Both, but RJJ more, resume comparison

    RJJ: Toney (prime), BHOPS (near prime), McCallum (past prime), Tarver (prime), Griffin (prime), Hill (past prime), Ruiz (prime), Malinger (prime), Woods, Pazienze (past prime/weight)

    Mayweather: Delahoya (past prime), Hatton (prime), Castillo (prime), Judah (prime), Corrales (prime), Henrnadez (past prime), Chavez (prime), Gatti

    Jones resume has better quality fighters

    Jones talked trash but didn't go around flashing money and never comes off like a jerk. I respect him way more than Floyd.

    I can't stand either fighter at all. I think they are both fine examples of what is wrong with boxing as far as the business side goes. (Ducking Fighters for $). With that being said, I would have to say that Jones will go down as the more respected fighter. I won't give any reasons why, as giving any type of adjulation to RJJ or Floyd would probably make me have a coniption fit.
