I know toney wanted to fight hopkins back in the 90's but hopkins backed out,it .looked to me hopkins never wanted to really fight toney,may be now toney will call him out after the fight tomorrow,imagine the trash talk between these two !!!!!
The prefight would be hysterical too bad they dont fight til they reach an age where they may break a hip
I lost all respect for Hopkins in the Dawson fight to be frank with you. Regardless of all his ace hate rhetoric I began to like him then he **** on me and all his fans. Based on styles Toney could not beat Hopkins. Toney does not have the footwork and Hopkins would spoil a decision.
Hopkins will never fight Toney. Toney is too good. Hopkins fights less experienced guys who have flaws.
Tarver may be ringside tomorrow... So he is more likely... Although the fans would love Bhop v Toney.
TONEY IS ONE OF THOSE GUYS THAT HOPKINS IS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO INTIMIDATE OR BULLy,TONEY IS ACTUALLY THE ONLY GUY THAT I BELIEVE IS NO SCARE OF ANY FIGHTER,AND LOOK IT UP,HES NEVER DUCKED ANYBODY!!!
Toney - Tarver I can't think of Hopkins next move, the Dawson re-match probably won't happen, and nobody else is a draw at LHW (Dawson isn't even a damn draw) so he's stumped.
It's a fight that every young boxer and budding trainer should be made to sit and study, Hopkins and Toney are oldschool fighters. They use old school tricks and moves that are dead to most boxing gyms.
I honestly believe Toney is all wrong for B-Hop, or at least was during his prime. Would still love to watch it tho. But I do believe Hopkins would sneak in good shots against Toney's lazy jab at times. All dpends on how good Toney looks against Lebedev to make a clear desision on who I'd pick.
Although both these men are pass there prime I would still love to see this go down. I hope it happens.
