    What are young James Toney's best fights?

    I've always been a big James Toney fan. His unique style is something that I have always admired. I'm wondering, what fights of James Toney's were the most exciting/did he display his skills the best? I'm looking for fights when he was between middleweight-light heavyweight, maybe cruiserweight if its really good. I have seen the Jirov, Barkley, Nunn, Williams, and RJJ fight and am looking for some other fights from the days when he was in somewhat decent shape. Any reccomendations?

        The Mike McCallum fights. Merqui Sosa. Tim Littles is quite a dramatic one too cos of the bad cut Toney gets.

            i was just a kid but i was a big michael nunn fan at the time. toney was getting schooled early on, but then started turning the tide and landed a killer left hook.
            made me a sad panda for a bit, but i also became a fan of toney.
            not his best performance but its the most memorable one for me.

            the jirov fight was an underrated classic of a fight IMO, but that wasnt young james toney.
            make sure to check out the first mccallum fight (2nd one wasnt that bad either, but less action), reggie johnson, his destruction of barkley and what he did to tim littles.

                If you haven't seen the McCallum fights definitely make an effort to. Fantastic fights.
