    Weird match-up...

    Got to go with Toney unless he underestimated Froch as he sometimes did with opponents. The guy is a MASTER of defense and attack.

    I'm guessing Toney in his prime? Because there is no way Toney could make 168lbs now. :lol:

    In his prime Toney would easily beat Froch.

    120-108 Toney

    Is this a fantasy match or real one???

    Fantasy, Toney is too slick for Froch...

    Reality... Toney will never make 168 even if he has surgery.

    Assuming modern liposuction techniques have advanced to the impossibly high level needed for such a fight to happen, it would probably be a good fight. Toney would win on points.

    But back in the real world, Toney is more likely to fight Haye first. Now that's a fight I want to see!

    Toney would KO him at anytime. Even Toney's weakest suit, his footwork, is made to look brilliant by Froch. I can't imagine Carl taking 12 rounds of punishment from Toney.

    Forget about Froch winning a round..he would be hardpressed winning an exchange in this fight..Even against an uninterested Toney.

    Why? There really is no need to ask a question that the answer is so obvious.

    I think Toney would win a decision but it would be competitive
