Is it true that neutron stars become black holes when they exceed the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff mass limit?

Yes. A reference article states that stars more massive than the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff limit collapse into a black hole, directly supporting the claim. Other sources discuss the TOV maximum mass or collapse above a limit but do not explicitly state black hole formation.
