    Toney is a better **** talker and a better boxer. Hopkins is more dedicated to his craft and to staying in great shape, but as far as skills and talent goes Toney is on a higher level

    Toney is a much better trash talker.
    he also beats Hopkins in a fight prime for prime, and he does it without constant fouling like Hopkins does and has been doing for years.

    I'm a fan of B-Hop no doubt. I would even favor him in his prime vs Toney. People act like Toney couldn't be beat.

    Toney is a better **** talker, but Hopkins is a greater fighter and at 160 when both were at their best, would beat Toney. Hopkins is more versatile than Toney in my opinion and is one of the most adjustable fighters I have ever seen.

    Toney vs jirov show's u how versatile toney is,because at that time jirov was the best cruiserweight and toney made him look silly and to make it bad toney made him look silly against the ropes.

    And toney punished holyfield who has a title shot coming up and is still a top heavyweight,now do u think hopkins could do that.

    Toney is 1 of the greatest fighter's next to ali who could sit on the ropes and make u miss and make u pay.

    No I don't, but that really isn't important...could Marvin Hagler? Probably not, but that doesn't mean that he wasn't as good as James Toney. All that means is that James Toney carries the weight better at HW than Hopkins most likely would.

    Hopkins is a great counterpuncher, as is Toney. Both are great defensive fighters and can fight on the inside and from outside. Hopkins has better footwork than Toney.

    Hopkins is the best **** talker, because for one I can understand him, and two he wins and backs it up. Toney on the other hand, is not on the same level as his mouth.

    Toney is the better **** talker, I like hops' style better, both great boxers, i think Toney relied on his power too much at middleweight, he could be outquicked if you could take his best shots and keep coming- he could catch anybody at middleweight with his technique and timing, but he didn't always win rounds with his style

    "Tell Felix Trinidad and his father to stop pussyfooting with the dick. If they want to get ****ed all they need to do is knock on the door and they'll get their shot. Trinidad didn't just get beat he got knocked out…and I know his father doesn't like to hear these words, but if his son wants to become a champion at middleweight he needs to see me…I came at him the same way he came at Oscar by telling them to switch the names and we have a fight, and I kicked that ass without controversy. He wanted Oscar De La Hoya to do something he wasn't willing to do with me, so that should show you how stupid and scared they are…I love sticking it to them, because all that you need to ask him is, Did Bernard Hopkins kick your son’s ass? ****, his son probably kicked his ass when they got home for putting him in there with that kind of animal. What Trinidad Sr. did to his son is considered child abuse in some states. Trinidad's father should have been institutionalized for putting his son in there with me. Every time he brings my name up he needs to look at that tape to know what kind of man and what kind of athlete Bernard Hopkins is. The only thing I haven't figured out yet is who regrets it more, Trinidad, Trinidad Sr. or Don King?"

    Both of them are damn good at what they do... but gotta go with Toney as the **** talker.
