    Who looked better against Montel Griffin?

    Just curious...

    Roy Jones - Ahead on two of the three cards, staggered him, dropped him and got DQ'd in the first one, blasted him out in a round in the second one.

    Or James Toney - Lost twice, 6 score cards, not a single one had Toney as the winner.

    Hard to says Toney looked better after Jones got a KO in 1. I felt Tony looked lackluster in the two fights. I would have to watch it again, but for some reason I remember feeling that Toney edged the rematch.

      I had it 1-1 but both were either way.

      Same way I had McCallum beating Toney the second time but it was either way.

        But a poster told me that the "consensus" is Toney performed better against Griffin than Roy Jones.

                You'd think that would be obvious wouldn't you?

                I had it 1-1 but neither were robberies.

                  Then I guess my memory is not shot, because I remember thinking Toney edged out a win.

                    Stop it Dan Montel was a very slick fighter, always liked him. Obviously the Jones fiasco was silly and should not have happened. I don't think either fight was a robbery either. Both could have gone either way, I would have given the second to Toney.
