        Whats the knock on Toney. He's extremely crafty in there. His dedication sucks. But his ring IQ is impressive.

          Bernard Hopkins. Although Mayweather doesn't need anyone in the corner to tell him strategy, I feel like he needs someone to tap him on the back and to give him encouragement.

            Not a knock really. I just think he's a step down from Mayweather and Hopkins.

              Good Argument. But I think ****m more important to Hopkins.


              How about the fact that Toney Basically trained himself in his prime. Had interchangeable trainers.

                    I'd say Hopkins, then mayweather then toney.

                    The reason I say hopkins is because floyd relies heavily on his reflexes and natural athleticism, hopkins doesn't have nearly the amount of natural abilities that floyd does, so hopkins has too be trickier/craftier/smarter to win his battles.

                    Toney has great ring IQ as well, but he's shown a few instances of lack of judgment or bad decision making in the ring whereas I never really see Floyd or Hopkins do anything really ******.
