    I would of loved to have seen a Toney vs Hopkins fight. Yes, Tiberi got robbed and yes it was due to Toney being dehydrated. Hence, the leg muscles cramping up at the end. Still, Tiberi was robbed of being called a champion. Inconsistant is key to his bad performances. His eating habits got the better of him and he even thinks it's funny. With that said, like you said, Toney was not dedicated like he should have been. I enjoyed watching him and Hopkins either way.

    "Respect for the great sport of Boxing" Wow, Toney is the biggest throw back we've had in years. You obviously know **** about the man.

    Its tough to argue against the greatness of Bernard given that the other guy was pretty inconsistant. But you can't argue against the man. Win lose or draw he'd fight anybody. No bull****, he didn't give a ****. He was certainly more talented then Bernard, few would argue that. And prime for prime I'd pick him over bernard. So that all counts for something.

    toney for me..he even had a better career at HW than RJJ. Seriously he has a win over holyfield..got a CW title against undefeated jirov. Sure he is inconsistent and has no discipline when it comes to conditioning but he sure carried that skill as he went up. BHOP has an excellent resume, undisputed MW champ for years but his best wins are from guys moving up DLH and trinidad.
