This is a hard one to pick. I don't think that Floyd Patterson would have lost to guys like John "The Quiet Man" Ruiz. Ruiz wasn't that good. That's why the great Roy Jones, Jr schooled him.

But, I believe with Patterson would be another proposition. Both had fast Hands and power.

I would lean with Patterson by knockout. Sooner or later in the fight, he would catch Super Roy's chin with a swift left hook.

Patterson by KO. Too explosive and hard-hitting for Jones. He defeated the much better HWs, than Roy did with his championship win.

Floyd is criminally underrated. He was a top HW. He beats RJJ.

This would be a beautiful match up.
Close fight either way, but I lean toward Patterson

Floyd could box and he has power too. I think Roy looks really good for a while then just gets hit with an absolute bomb by Floyd.
