Hamed has advantages in speed, power, chin and spontaneity.
Hamed's problem was not getting up for fights.....he'd have been up for a fight with Jones (not that it could have ever actually happened), trained properly and KO'd him.

hamed only beat a passed prime kevin kelly and mab put the smack down on him.he was to off balence when he punched at angles.and would have got stoped by roy or even pac.or anybody with a decent chin and fundementals of boxing.

Yes, in a pound for pound sense, Prince would probably beat Roy.
Prince's power at his weight was phenominal, Roy's was good for his weight.
The style match up is wrong for Jones. Roy did not have the fundamentals to beat Prince throu attrition. Roy would spring in, as would Hamed, but Hamed would crack the chin of Jones, (in a pound for pound sense).

The higher the weight, the better the chance for Hamed.
If they fight at middleweight with Jones staying the same and Hamed having the same skills, but relative to the division. Hamed's power would be unreal at a higher weight, unmatched at middleweight history.
With Jones shakey chin and Hamed's power = KO.
I have no doubts Hamed might get dropped a couple of times along the way though.

Jones was used to himself being the unorthodox fighter, but he wouldn't be in this fight. Admittedly he's well above Hamed ability wise but you can't rule Hamed out entirely with his power. Does anyone remember how high up the P4P list Hamed was at his peak? I remember seeing a photo of Jones and Hamed together and i'm sure they were both on the list at this time.

Steady on. Hamed has a definite chance, yeah. RJJ never faced anyone with Hamed type KO power. He never faced Benn, McClellan or Julian Jackson. RJJ never faced anyone with remotely that level of power.
But I'd still favour RJJ based on his slightly superior speed and vastly superior defence.

Exactly. Jones was very difficult to catch in his prime. He never faced anyone with Hamed type power though so we'll never know for sure how he'd have dealt with a genuine one punch KO artist.
Prime Jones was so special though. I think he'd have easily outboxed Benn, McClellan and Julian Jackson.
And if Hamed had been a middleweight / super-middleweight he'd have TKO'ed him in about 4 rounds. Probably.

Jones never proved himself against a legitimate devastating one punch KO artist. And the fact that he was KO'ed by Tarver with one punch (even though Jones was past his best) raises question marks.

I think we are forgetting something here. You keep talking about Hamed's power.....what, you think that P4P Jones didn't hit hard? He was passively dropping LHW's. By passive, I mean he rarely went for the KO after MW because the fighters were bigger. The one time he did, Griffin, who as someone mentioned gave Jones a bit of trouble, was stopped in 1 round. You recall was Jones KO percentage was before LHW, which is past his best weight. Something like 31-0 with 28KO's.
And Hamed was fast, but not even close to Jones fast P4P. He would be outgunned here significantly in handspeed, footspeed, and ring generalship to name a few.

Just my opinion. But believe me, if Barrera coulld avoid his shots, Jones would have countered him silly. And while that was not the best version of Hamed mind you, he had not decreased in speed and power from my view, just drive and motivation.

Hamed made his reputation against mostly sub standard opponents.
He was truly exposed by Barrera.
Although he did have knock out power, most of his punches were arm punches.
Nevertheless he did have several knock outs, many because he was heavy handed.
Now ---- this alone does not make a great pound for pound knock out puncher .
---- not even close.

RJJ just would not be able to live with Hamed in a fight. RJJ could not keep at heavy because he was scared of the big punchers. Hamed hits harder than most heavies so he would double over RJJ in under 5rounds. Add to that Hamed's mixture of speed, skill, athleticism and power he would stand a class apart even at catchweight.
On a pound for pound basis Hamed is near the top of the ATG list while RJJ is not even a top 30. Hamed fought everyone out there he could while RJJ only fought hand picked opponents.
