Jones left 160 after Hopkins and fought at 168 a few times before the Toney fight (even fought Danny Garcia at 168). If that's what this thread is about then at least mention that.

Did Jones Jr. ask Toney for a 164 catch?

He weighed 159lbs for his Middleweight Title fight with Thomas Tate which immediately preceded the Toney showdown.....so how had he "grown out of the division"? Whoops.
No, he just wanted step up and face a real challenge instead of wasting his career away on no hopers.

Besides Hopkins and Toney, Jones gained quite the reputation of making a living fighting no hopers on hbo.
