That was hard. Loughran, Gibbons, Jones, Tunney especially.

 

It's heavily supplemented though. On film he has few peers (maybe four or five?), concerns about his chin notwithstanding. He is the first and last former middleweight to beat a 200lb plus fighter for a world title. He was, at one stage 48-1 with the only loss a shithouse dq across fourteen years. Toney-Jones is probably the most severe domination of any meeting between (arguably) the p4p #1 and #2. Toney is the second of two fighters on the list that he utterly dominated, as though they were nothing. He basically remained unextended whilst beating up some of the best fighters in the world and his division.

I think this is ok for him.

 

:rofl

You could argue it the other way IMO, but I lean to Leonard's bigger wins.
