    The counter punching and defensive ability of toney to me seem more slick than hameds corkscrew uppercut

    Toney's slickness is so cool, because its so subtle, almost slow looking, yopu wonder why the guy is not landing on him

    He sure did jowbeadg,...the bouts vs Johnson and Martin are a couple of my favorites to watch...man, Eddie was sure in his groove for those fights....just prior to the screw up of going to heavyweight to fight Snipes.

    And because they just know Toney from highlight videos. Meldrick Taylor though? I didn't know eating flush shots like it was your job made you a slick boxer.
