    To many options for a vote, so lets do it informally:

    Hopkins-Jones-Toney- Calzahge

    Hopkins-Jones-Calzahge-Toney

    Hopkins-Toney-Jones-Calzahge

    Hopkins-Toney-Calzahge-Jones

    Hopkins- Calzahge-Toney-Jones

    Hopkins-Calzaghe-Jones-toney

    Jones-Toney-Hopkins-Calzhage

    Jones-Toney-Calzahge-Hopkins

    Jones-Hopkins-toney-Calzahge

    Jones-Hopkins-Calzahge-Toney

    Jones-Calzaghe-Toney-Hopkins

    Jones-Calzaghe-Hopkins-toney


    Hell, you get the picture. Tank their legacies in terms of what they have accomplished at this point.

    Toney

    Prime 4 Prime Toney beats all of these guys. He was struggling with the weight against Jones and was thoroughly outworked/beaten to the punch. Jones fought a less-schooled version of B-Hop, but beat him nonetheless with an injured hand. Very impressive.

    Calzaghe was thought to have laboured to a points decision over a past-it Hopkins but it's clear now that he was in a very close fight with a man who just dominated the kid who was supposed to end his unbeaten run. (Pavlik over Calzaghe I mean)

    Toney has wasted some of his natural talent, though it's still amazing to see what is essentially a fat guy, displaying his gifted boxing abilities in the ring.
    Toney moved through weights as a nessecity....he could'vve been dominant at SMW/LHW for years if he'd kept himself in shape.

    I'm expecting to get flamed, but I don't care. I've explained my reasons for placing Hopkins above Jones (who is the fighter that got me into boxing, and by no means do I believe into the china chin crap) in the Hopkins vs. Jones resume thread.

    Toney.

    That is in terms of legacy. In terms of H2H though it is between RJJ and JC.

    What division did Toney dominate for a decade?

    How many loses does Toney have?

    Best win? mediocre Jirov? LOOOOOOOOOOL?

    Toney doesn't belong in this company - AT ALL.

    Thank you for letting us all know how dumb you are.:lol: Jirov??? How about Mike McCallum??? Michael Nunn??? Iran Barkley???

    You really think that 0 Joe has means that much???

    How many weight divisions has Calzaghe won titles in??? How many weight classes has Joe gone up in??? Lets see Calzaghe fight Jirov and see what happens. Or how about Rahman or Ruiz or Holyfield. **** Guinn would **** Calzaghe up.

    Show some ****in respect to a REAL legend of the sport *******.
