    at thier very best at the weight I pick Hopkins by decision. in 1991 or 2 when they could have fought there, Toney easily enough by decision.

    Unless he was losing to RJJ then his best weight was 160.

    I say that because of the manner he whipped Barkley in his 1st fight @ 168. That was the most dominant technical performance I saw outta him.

    Hopkins any day. Toney is best when he is close to his opponent which Hopkins would not fight toney on the inside. He will pot shot victory.

    Great technical matchup
    I got Hops by decision, maybe cuz I'm biased, but it would be a very very close fight

    Toney, man. Hopkins would have to play aggressive against a technical, defensive, counter punching machine.

    depends what year in Hopkins career he would be..if it was early around the same time that Toney was still able to make 160 then Toney. too slick and too confidant and Hopkins wasnt as good or polished and professional as he is now. It would be very good tho im sure but I think Toney would be too slick for BHop
