    It's hard to think of this because toney hasnt been good for so darn long.
    If im being honest with prime vs prime. I think toney wins fairly comfortably

    You really seem to not a have even the slightest clue sometimes. Geale in the best in name only. Lemieux and Murray would massacre Geale.

    Not a chance. Toney had a gorilla chin.

    Big GGG fan here but Toney was an ATG at 160 and would be an extremely tough fight for GGG. Id pay 200 bucks to see that fight easily. I think Toney wins possibly by ko but i just dont know what kind of chin GGG has as its never been tested.

    Isn't it way to premature to speculate . You are trying to compare someone who can't get the best best to fight him to someone people claim who avoided the best. He should be allowed to test his mettle against his peers before he is placed against the unproveable past.

    James Toney has a really good beard that could take heavyweight level punches and not even flinch. Yeah, I know the flash knockdown by RJJ, he wasn't hurt at all, more of a balance shot. No way GGG outboxes him so, little possibility of a KO, GGG takes the L in this, probably by KO.

    Yeah, James Toney is one of those with an ATG chin, this would be a bad matchup for GGG in this hypothetical fight. If a James Toney was around right now, GGG would have to duck him. Bad news.

    Toney avoided the best?

    No, but I have seen the argument made by the same sort that try to bury GGG,
    They are both lucky they didnt have to face the couch warriors in the ring.
