James Toney vs David Tua at Heavyweight

Toney by decision. Tua isn't skilled enough to stop him, James would school him assuming he'd be in decent shape.

 

This could have course have been arranged, though it would not have been prime for prime.

 

Toney would never ever get in thee Ring with a prime Tua........while limited Tua is miles ahead of cavemen zero skill Peter who Toney lost twice to.

Toney at Heavyweight is a total joke.

 

Toney UD.

 

Toney UD

 

Perhaps the chances of Walcott, Charles , Moore, and even LaStarza are looking up?

 

Subtract the extra fat from Toney's later fights. There's a 217 pound muscular chemical lab underneath all that chubbiness. It was last seen in the open against Holyfield and/or Ruiz, but it was still there beneath the fat layer later on.

 

Yeah lol, cause anyone of those possessed Toneys combination of chin and defensive skills

Like Sauhund said, Toney ain´t that good at HW. Tua does more damage over the rounds and wins that fight whatever way.

 

I'm not arguing that Tua would do enough damage over the rounds to pull out the victory, but the Toney that fought Holyfield and "beat" Peter and Guinn was still a very good Heavy weight despite being undersized.

 

They don’t count. They didn’t even fight in color

 

Toney seems to have regarded their defensive skills pretty highly, since he viewed their footage and used what he saw.

 

Of course not.

Colors didn't exist back then!

 

I could of course argue that Peter was a significantly more successful heavyweight contender.

 

There might just have been a narrow window where this could have been a good fight, say around 2003 or so.
