Who beats prime RJJ at 160 and 168?

At 160 Ray Robinson would have been as quick as Roy , but with better technique. At 168 I dont think anyone beats Roy.

 

already lost at middle. he'd have even less chance at 168. i don't see a knockout but i see a one sided ass kicking that bernard never gets over

 

Nobody a prime RJJ was unbeatable at those weights.:deal

 

He would be lucky to get past the 5th.

 

:good

 

Joe could throw with much more power when he was younger and was often refered to by the press as the banger from Wales. Not 1 of the first 9 fighters he faced made it to the end of the second! Ok they weren't world beaters but he still put them away.

And older Joe could still throw with power but he didn't do it often as it was a massive risk to his hands. During the Kessler fight he hit the Dane with some pretty big shots!

 

Jones beats anyone in the that range in his prime.

 

I needed a laugh and I got it in this thread. So no Middleweight in History could beat a guy that has a fragile Glass Jaw and no heart? How old are some of you? Do you think the History of Boxing started in 1990 or something?

 

Hagler, Calzaghe, and SRR.

 

Nope, he had his chance against an injured jones and lost. I think the calz that turned up against a prime sheika would've had the best chance at 68. Whoever said benn at 68 was the best choice against prime RJJ is on something or doesn't know boxing. Benn was strictly a puncher who even
said himself that a prime rjj would've done a number on him.

 

You serious?

I'd love to think this is possible i'm a massive Calzaghe fan and i'm with an earlier poster thinking NOBODY IN HISTORY beats prime RJJ he was ****ing phenomenal!

 

Like Bernard Hopkins and James Toney?

 

Nah, Jones when he was rarely hit at those weights was never even a suspect chin. Never was even close to being knocked down, fought with a ferocious intensity.

Do you think Roy Jones' career started in 2004 or something?

 

This guy Roy is embarrassing in this one was considered by some to be the best P4P fighter in the world.

Hagler would beat him definitely.

I'm usually one that shows bias toward contemporary fighters, but in this instance I'd have to side with Hagler.

Hearns could possibly take him as well, if he boxed rather than brawled he would hit Roy at some stage..... if he brawled he would probably be countered silly and probably stopped.

At 168, Benn & Eubank would stand most chance I'd say. Eubank wouldn't chase Jones, he would make Jones come forward...... Calzaghe would be blown away.
