Hopkins-Toney at 160...

Theres no way for me not to be bias with this post because Toney is one of my all time favorite fighters, and I always felt Hopkins was overrated.

So yeah I think Toney decisions the executioner.

Toney by decision...........

Really? Hopkins overrated? First time I've heard that...why do you think so?

Toney by decision only if he is in shape. I too thought B-Hop was over rated until the Tarver fight.

lmfao, 160 was toney's best weight.

Because his praise is mostly from his 20 title defense and beating Tito and Oscar.

The 20 title defenses were against average competition at best. Tito had some success at Middleweight so its still a good win in my book. But its not a GREAT win because Tito was still a blown up welterweight. Same goes with Oscar, who had no business fighting at Middleweight. He got beat twice by a natural Middleweight in Taylor who is very ordinary.

You are correct, the pre RJJ Toney was a beast. Thats why I stated, if in shape.

Toney got schooled at MW by Nunn. I think it's a pick 'em.

I think Toney's best weight was 168, but his best wins (Nunn, Johnson, McCallum) were at Middleweight.
