    Jones Jr maybe and Tunney. Everyone else get's beat. I mean the man beat Archie Moore four times, four times man.

    Jones' chin vs the Charles of pre-Sam Baroudi fight, would result in an 8 rd KO by Charles.

    Patterson,Loughran,Tunney,Old-timer Jack Delaney who could punch I just see his style trouble for Ezz, Also Foster hes a fave of mine to beat just about any LH or at least a good fight.

    46-49 he was undoubtedly the best lhw in the world cutting a swathe through the division despite never being granted a title shot.

    It can't really be questioned to be honest.

    I would have RJJ and Tunney as favorite against him.

    There are a few others who could have an even chance with him.

    I genuinely don't think i'd favour a lhw over the 93-99 roy jones. He might well be my h2h king the more I consider it :think

    I struggle to pick anyone over the best versions of a 168 and 175 Jones.

    Well everyone he fought in that time frame, I thought I made that implicit?

    Film is readily available and he looks fantastic on it.

    I don't think he's less than 50% against anyone.

    And you think he could pull the same stuff as he did with those guys with Charles, Tunney, Moore, Conn, Foster and so on? Seriously?
