    The Middleweights from 1988 to 1994 were the greatest era of Middleweights ever assembled: Toney, McClellan, Nunn, Jones Jr., Jackson, Benn, McCallum, Eubank, Hopkins, Watson and Collins.

    Toneys chin carried him through. One of the best chins in history. Nunn was winning the fight after 7 rounds, but Toney started tapping that chin, and Nunn eventually wilted. Great fight and fighters!

    When you get a boxer that can KO with either hand, most likely will have success in boxing. This is one skill that Toney had. But it also helped that he was relentless throwing those punches non stop.
