Most Skilled Old-school Fighter: Toney or Hopkins

[MANGLER]

I'd give the edge to Toney, cuz he's effective both offensively and defensively.

[KostyaTszyu44]

toney is the more skilled fighter

bernard has achieved more

[billionaire]

toney is more old school skilled....look how out of shape he was......he lacks the old school discipline and heart to beat elite fighters that pushed hopkins over the top...

[MWMerlino]

Here is another question that helps to answer your question:

James Toney beats cruiser/HW's completely on skill alone -- could Bernard do better?

No. Toney is an aggressive counter puncher and his work on the inside is only rivaled by Mayweather.

[KostyaTszyu44]

and as for whos more old school- is that a joke?

toney is the most old school fighter of all time, apart from the old school fighters themselves!!

[Mr. Ryan]

Hopkins, hands down. Toney is kinda one dimensional, he wants his opponents right there in front of him throwing punches and not making him move around too much. He just comes back with the right hand counters and has trouble with boxers.

Hopkins can pretty much beat any style.
