    Nah, not at all. Whitaker embarrasses him totally. I don't think he's as skilled as Ricardo Lopez frankly. Toney was a wonder at his best though.

    He's one of the most skilled clean in-fighters I've seen at his best. As an all-arounder, though? No way.

    It's funny that a guy who tested positive for steroids on more than one occasion is such a clean fighter inside the ropes.

    The only times I can remember him doing something dirty is when he hit Prince Charles Williams after the bell (I think it was just retaliation) and hitting Michael Nunn behind the head.


    Along with Pacquiao, Toney is someone who doesn't seem to care to foul back when the other guy is using damn near every trick in the book.

    Contrary to you non-boxers, Nard doesn't use his head for offense. That's stupid, because at a minimum, he has at least a 50% chance of getting injured himself.
    Nard tucks his chin so as to avoid damage in the event of a head butt.
    The technique works, because how many times have you seen Hopkins with a cut, or for that matter, one of Hopkin's opponents with cuts from head butts? Not at all.
    In how many fights has Hopkins lost points due to head butt violation(s)?
    None.

    The problem is, you fools don't know **** about boxing so you repeat silly mythical nonsense factoids expecting those who know better to accept it as fact.
    No doubt, that when Ward defeats Froch, haters will be spreading the same lies about his technique, and accusing him of the same without any supporting evidence in the way of point deductions or excessive warnings.
