Depends on the weight. At the MW I'd favor Toney, at the LHW I'd go with Hopkins.

I'd pick Toney over Hopkins at both weights.Toney at his best was magnificent.Hopkins at his best was really good.Just my thinking though.

The match favors Hopkins more at Middleweight, he was at his very best in that weight class. Toney often struggled with the weight even when he was young, and I don't think ever got the best out of his abilities there.
I'd favor Hopkins by UD at Middleweight.
At Light Heavyweight it'd be more of a contest, and I could see either a draw or Split Decision either way.

I'd take Toney at both weights, by decisive decisions.

You're right about discipline.If Toney had his discipline he'd probably still be a Champion.
