    Hopkins did better v Jones then went on to improve vastly after that fight in 1993.

    Hopkins found ways to win. I think his style gets him a decision

    Hopkins via MD (6-6/7-5/8-4). He outworks & out-thinks Toney - using all the dirty underhand tactics & grappling manoveres in his arsenal to befuddle & neutralise Toney's effectiveness. However, this will be an UGLY fight to watch. It will surely be a stinker.

    This is one of those where I know what feels right and it might not be what people are telling me, the same way that people say gasoline green is green, but it's obviously blue to me. I know it's in its name that it's green but...no. That is blue. That'll be enough of that boosheet.

    I reckon Toney. I’ll admit though, Bernard is so God awful boring I can’t even picture the fight.

    Hopkins might take it because Toney hadn’t hit his peak yet which was 168.

    Who knows? At 160 Toney has beaten the better quality opposition. But at 160 Bernard probably has the best chance. Above 160 I take Toney for sure.
