    Im going with hopkins trinidad, since he kinocked him out after schooling him and was a bigger underdog.

    Although only his own fault, Toney's weight problems must be taken into account. Plus RJJ came in with all the physical advantages, he did not win by 'schooling' Toney on the art of boxing, but rather through raw physical gifts.

    Hopkins truly gave Trinidad a lesson in world-class boxing.
     
  4. what the **** rjj beat toney , but never ' schooled ' him , it is impossible to school toney , he is the teacher baby

    He showed it all in that fight: from taking away Tito's jab, taking away his left hook, to controlling the pace, footwork, inside fighting, outside game, counterpunching, feints, every punch in the book :bbb

    Jones over Toney. If only for the reason that Toney not Jones was the heir aparant to replace Whitaker as the #1 pound for pound.

    B.Hop kept Tito's front foot moving which took away his hook and his power, got in and out when on the inside, feinted his way into tito body , and counterpunched his right hand very nicely. Aboustely a master piece in everyway.
