    Little Coward Chicken Girl Golovkin would've ducked them both. Biggest joke in boxing history.

      hopkins has never been engaged in an enthralling fight, at least not any that i can remember.

      i mean even toney's fight with holyfield .. i've always enjoyed james toney's fight style.
      He'd stopped a Welterweight that moved to MW and proved himself as a MW.

      Do you not rate Hagler's win over Hearns either?

      Hopkins schooling and stopping Tito was a better performance than any of Toney's performance.

      Toney doesn't have a dominant performance over a top fighter.

          Sounds to me like YDKSAB...
          So you're actually trying to tell me that James Toney has a high ring IQ?

            Roy Jones was asked who was the best guy he fought in his prime and he immediately said James Toney. You can also find that video on youtube.
            It makes a huge difference. It's an entirely different statment.

              Now I'm convinced that YDKSAB.

              The come from behind KO of Michael Nunn was a thing of beauty - as was his outclassing Jirov..

                It's painfully obvious that he does to ANYONE who has a clue about the sport of boxing. I can't believe this is even a question. Sorry son but if you think James Toney doesn't have a HIGH ring IQ then YDKSAB...

                    toney taking out nunn is better than hops taking out tito.
