    in a P4P sense, it's the win over toney. his biggest fight period was his win vs ruiz. his overall greatest performances in addition to toney imo would be, the second griffin, reggie johnson, and the bryant brannon fights.

    glen kelly....that was where jones got to show all his showboat tools...
    he put both hands behind his back and stood in front of kelly, waited for kelly to try and hit him, and then dropped him with a right hand that shot out from behind his back.

    Agreed about the Toney fight. Toney was a real threat, unlike many Jones faced, and he completely dominated him.
