Could Hopkins take power-shots from Sam Peter or Hasim Rahman? I don't think so. Toney did, and he didn't flinch.
This content is protected It's still Toney, tho. His chin held up at CW and HW. Toney was knocked down by a jab in his second bout against Peter.
The Roy Jones KD: It's plain to see that Toney lost his balance because Roy bumped into him right after the punch. Toney wasn't hurt and got up immediately. The Sam Peter KD: Toney was off-balance again, he wasn't really hurt. That was plain to see. He took Peters bombs for 24 rounds but was hurt by a jab? C'mon. Only time Toney was on his bum and really hurt was in the Reggie Johnsen fight.
Chincheckers wouldn't be useful, because they don't know anything about boxing or about evaluating punch resistance. They're just trolls who attach themselves to a gimmick. Toney has the better and more proven chin. He has gone toe-to-toe with 250lbs+ natural heavyweight powerpunchers like prime Sam Peter, and came through totally unscathed. B-Hop has an amazing chin too, but a guy like Jean Pascal isn't dropping or wobbling Toney, not in this life.

Good job. Both have cast iron chins. Toney was buzzed in this fight. Both have never been truly hurt. I cant pick one over the other so ill just let it be decided by who has been down more.
Toney Hopkins was dropped twice by Mercado Dropped twice by Pascal Toney faced Peter I, Peter II and Barkley
