    Yes he is ATG.

    Darius M. is nothing special. Tunney is an idiot and a racist.

        One of the best fighters of ANY generation. We were lucky to have seen him in our time.
        Also, I love his WWF (WWE) type interviews. He's said some funny stuff over the years.

          I think he falls short a little bit. He didn't do enough to become an ATG, just like Sloppiano

            Skills wise he is but, how many times has he been caught cheating!
            Any boxer caught cheating should be banned for life.

              i gotta say definatly, the man will fight anybody, dont get all caught up in the james toney hw era, toney was and still is one of the best pure boxers in the world, regardless of his division. toney as a mw was just simply amazing, speed, power, timing, and just one of the best boxing minds since pep. toney is a shoe in for the hof

                Of course hes an all time great. His resume speaks for itself. Nunn, Jirov, McCallum, Ruiz, Sosa, Williams and a bunch of others. Hes a 4 division champion and will be a first ballet hall of famer.

                    He's definitely a great fighter, I'm hesitant to call him an ATG though because of his lack of discipline and his past steroid use.

                      do you really think Toney was steroid cheat though? c'mon

                      Toney tested positive probably because he was taking steroids to treat injuries.

                      James is an old school, hard nosed guy. I just don't seem him as that type.

                      Like James said, if I'm the poster boy for steroids, steroids is going out of buisness. lol
