      I don't agree B-Hop had trouble after that fight with lesser middleweights than Sergio, to me that is crazy talk.

      If B-Hop and Toney are not looked at as what they were as opposed to what they became or were beforehand, then yes there is a lot to debate~

        Look, Toney never had good foot speed, he could bedazzle you with angles if you stood up close but display good movement against him and he wasn't the same guy. I used to think that Toney would have displayed far more than he showed against Roy but I doubt that now. What Hopkins' fight are you talkin' about, because again, that version of Hop would have mopped the floor with any current MW including Martinez.

          I don't agree on the B-Hop-Martinez thing, a later version of B-Hop you are correct but that version hell no. The guys he had trouble with were the guys he rematched and then wrecked them all in rematches, which is impressive in it's own right but to think Sergio couldn't hang for 1 fight I think that is pushing it, the rematch though you would have a point.

          Toney all I have to do is watch his fight and I can see his decline clearly, now Jones made that problem way worse and is totally wrong for Toney.

          Like I said previously though it is not a matter of them not being quality wins, it is a matter of degree. I personally think people go way overboard on them but even with that you can still say Jones did better

            Overall.....including wins since turning 30, I take Floyd's resume over Jones. But as far as prior to turning 30, I'll take Jones, it's not the landslide some are making it out to be though.
