Roy Jones JR or Muhammad Ali??

Roy is probably the fastest Ive seen above middleweight, his handspeed especially was unprecedented...His footspeed and reflexes were heads and shoulders above anyone around those weights at the time.

Ali is very fast though...He would put a lot of good middleweights to shame for hand and foot speed, even being so much bigger.

 

Kind of hard to compare a MW to a HW but I'd have to say Jones.

 

Roy baby!

 

Ali in his prime. He would have knocked Jones out.

 

Roy ever so slightly faster.


But prime for prime, Ali stops him early.

 

Roy was a MW so I'll say he had faster reflexes

 

Ali easily.

 

and you really believe that?

 

i feel jones was a better defensively but ali is a thousand times better fighter than roy jones

 

Jones was faster. He's probably the fastest fighter I've ever seen P4P. Ali - as brilliant as his reflexes were - did rely a bit upon his fluid movement in and out of range. Jones on the other hand, would often stand right in front of his opponent and still avoid everything.

Ali was the better fighter though.

 

All you people saying Ali by knockout, THE QUESTION IS NOT WHO WOULD WIN THE FIGHT... The question is who is quicker.

 

Ali is the best a legal champion , Roy Superoids Jones is an artificially made champion.

 

what defense does Roy employ? insanity

 

Roy Jones is the most overrated hype bag in boxing history.
