Skill wise, James Toney is one of the greatest fighters i have ever watched in my life. Dude could stand with you in the pocket and you couldnt hit him clean, while youre punchin his shoulders and gloves, hes killing you with hooks
His fight with Iran Barkley
I agree with this its really a damn shame he didnt take better care of himself. I thought I'd be the only one to have him top 5 all time but sounds like u do too, daps. and that fight with Barkley
and Jirov

I have that problem as well..but the crazy part about it is that usually your favorite guys had or have an argument for being the best at some point in time. All of the guys on my lists are personal favorites of mine, but were also shytting on the comp.

I had to go back and watch his fights, Im 27 so when he was destroyin nikkas i was in elementary school
but after i started boxing myself, i picked up on Toney, and he's probably inside my top 5 of fighters i just love to watch. Hearns and Sweat Pea are on there as well...shoutout to Aaron Pryor too

Forgot about him, i think he was the first boxer to constantly use shoulder movement and crouching as his defense, another boxer that pernell whitaker sorta reminds me of. Toney and Floyd too....Henry was something else the way he'd bull his way on the inside using his arms and shoulders to create space. He did move in and out at times too, Id have to put him on my top 10 instead of roy jones

Tyson didnt really know how to box going backwards. Up until his corner changed and Don King became his promoter, he was a great textbook boxer. He kept his hands by his chin bobbing and weaving, and threw all his punches while being on balance. That Mike Tyson belongs in the discussion but once Don King took over, i think it was a few fights before the buster douglas fight, Tyson seemed to forget some of his skills and be more interested in going for the knockout. It was when Kevin Rooney left his corner, things started to go downhill.
yeah he was really strategic with his style
