The Best Of James Toney

That's why for me Toney was a more dangerous fighter, he would go and get his opponent and could fight equally well on his front or back foot.Mayweather is probably the most complete fighter I've ever seen, Jame Toney is my favorite fighter of all time but Mayweather's defense was much better then Toney's, also Mayweather can dance and hit, which Toney never did.
However Toney did brawl way more then Mayweather and Toney's chin was P4P the best I've ever seen.
Mayweather reminds me of James Toney and Sugar Ray Leonard combined.
Mayweather has all the skills but I wish he would impose himself more on his opponents.Comment

I've seen every Toney fight possible, your friend is right about Toney's natural talent, if he did train as hard as guys like Mayweather and Hopkins, he woud've been 10 times better then he was, that's scary!The vid doesnt show much of toney defensive abilities, but my best mate says toney has more natural talent than mayweather, he was the one who showed me this vid, i dont know, thing is, toney looks 2 handed in this vid, by that i mean both hands having dangerous power, its also nice to see him in shape and focused, his talent is unquestionable, probably the reason he has managed to fight at such a high level for such a long time.Comment

Mayweather can't do it at 154, he did it many times when he was fighting at 130.Comment

boxrec is strange like that, they probebly take in a fighters accomplishments from lower weight classes and then consider the fighter whatever they end their career at. and sometimes not. I just dont get it sometimes.
Man...Toney could have actually been a force at Heavy if he came in shape...look at how good he was against Holyfield, and I remember Bernstein commenting that him at 220ish might be under conditioned
Its just too bad, really.
Toney has always been of my favorite to watch, I think hes hilarious too. unbelieveable fighter on a p4p level
