    Seriously though, James Toney has to be up there

    I was watching some Toney fights the other day and that guy was a bad mother****a

    Watching Toney made me realise how good Roy Jones was, best fighter since Ray Leonard, maybe even better

      I agree, Jones' wins over young Hopkins and Toney were great wins, making me realize how good Jones was. However, Hopkins was "young" (age 28, but Jones was 24), and I guess Hopkins' style requires more experience to develop, while Jones' was mostly of athletic ability. Also, didn't Jones have an injured right shoulder or something? Yet he still won clearly.

      Toney, I hear he was drained? Can anyone confirm this? Even if he was, I still give Jones credit for dominating Toney like that.

        Zab Judah is up there.

        Here's his trademark check-hook:

                    Pernell Whitaker
                    James Toney
                    Floyd Mayweather Jr.

                      Juan Manuel Marquez is definitely up there...I mean for a guy with handspeed like that to counter so effectively...its amazing.

                      And of course you can't forget Mayweather, Sweat Pea, Zab Judah in the first four rounds, Jones Jr or Toney.

                      And how the hell can you guys forget Margarito...He's like the fastest, most skilled and accurate counter puncher in our generation...hahaha yeah right.
