    Of course. Had a tonne of fights and beat some great fighters. Nunn, Johnson, McCallum on your resume is impressive.

    Could have been so much better for the skillset he had but thats another discussion all together.

    While I see and agree Hopkins is rated higher due to his high level of consistency his best wins cannot be compared to Toney's in my opinion. At the end of the day resume is what matters as its factual.

    Didn't deserve to win. And the idea that it was all cut and dry is overblown. Nearly every pundit, writer and even Harold Lederman had it a one or two point win for either fighter. Very close fight.

    Beat better opp at Middle weight in a much shorter time period. Won belts at 168 and 190 Cruiser against a killer.

    Didn't deserve the win for running. One round, ok. Several? Sorry, I never endorse that.

    I use him because he's as big an Oscar d*ckrider as there is. And even he thought it was tight. Like everyone else.

    He's not an Oscar dickrider at all. :lol:

    He's a horrible judge and the fact that you use him as reference means you should just STFU because you're looking foolish.

    :lol: Toney's KO of Nunn was def not a fluke. In fact it was extremely impressive how he set it up.
