The Cookout

Roy Jr. in my opinion was the dopest fighter in his era, he's one of my favorite fighters. I always wondered how a Floyd and Roy fight would be with both in their prime and OfCourse the same weight class. I think Roy would get him, he's as fast if not faster than Floyd and his power is on another level. you think Floyd would be able to handle a prime Roy?

Mayweather would win because he would rely on good Boxing technique which would neutralize Roy’s over-reliance on natural speed and agility.

This is evident in how their careers have gone in their later years. Roy Jones was getting his ass beat hard…some fights I didn’t think he was going to make it out of.

Meanwhile Mayweather is still fighting, unscathed and has to actually taper his defense a bit to make fights more exciting.

I like Roy, he was quick, powerful, and flashy…as a fan I like that. As someone that boxes I prefer the technical fighter. Roy would look good for a couple rounds but once May started to read him and counter him he would get Roy on points.
