    Toney was one of the most skilled fighters ever, and one of the toughest, hit plenty hard. was just lazy and inconsistent.

    If James Toney, who was a murderous puncher at 160, lands that shot on Spence instead of feather fisted Ugas, Spence would still be asleep

    If his legs turn to rubber like they did against Ugas he isn’t making it out of the round.

    Obviously Toney would stop Spence but if they were the same size it would be very competitive.

    Tommy Hearns is taller and has a longer reach than Mike Tyson - your point ?

    We've never even seen Spence campaign at 154 never mind 160.

    The gap in weight and muscle between Tyson and Hearns was far more than the gap in weight and muscle between Toney and Spence, however I agree with you, Spence is a weight bully.

    Toney took Samuel Peter and Holy`s punches at heavyweight, Spence was hurt by Ugas at 147 and Jones punched far harder than Spence does.
