James Toney: I'll beat a prime Tyson (video)

toney out of his mind

 

Prime Tyson in 1 or 2 rounds....way to fast and powerful in his prime. And too big for Toney in his prime. Toney is one totally deluded guy. I'm sure he's not really believing it or why wouldn't he have moved up to heavyweight back then n cleaned out and made WAY MORE $$$ than he did in the lighter weight divisions he was at? Nah I dont think Toney truly believes that in his heart of hearts. Talks easy.

 

Nobody beat a prime Trevor Berbick, nodboy

 

Toney would beat the living shyt out of Tyson, you don't know **** about boxing if you think otherwise.

 

i like toney alot....and im sure he believes what he is sayin....and he should...thats why i like toney..unwavering confidence.....but he would be ko'd....fairly early..against a prime tyson.... very wrong style..size..power..speed... match up for james

 

Oh yeah Tyson's going to knock out Toney huh?? Toney's chin is made out of iron, Tyson would get outboxed and embarrased.

 

The toney that fought holy gives mike hell...look at what tillis did with iron mike...make mike miss a few times escape the first four and take him into deep water....james could quite possibly stopped mike late...and hell I won't even bring up the mental toughness issue....its man vs boy on that front")

 

youre an idiot
toney lost to a fat peter 2 times, montell griffin 2 times...barley beat danny batchelder by SD, everyone thinks he lost to oquendo, went 10 rounds with damon reed, 12 rounds with rydell booker ....
toney wouldnt make it out of the 2nd round with a prime tyson you dumbass :hi:

 

Toney was a great middleweight , but a fat heavy. Tyson would crush him , but Toney is a tough dude too so it wouldn't be a cake walk.

 

Prime Toney would beat a Prime Tyson. I honestly believe if Toney and Tyson were both prime and both in shape Toney has the chin to take Tyson's punch and beats him in every area except power. Tyson would simply be out pointed just as Holyfield was knocked out.

 

I don't think the Toney who beat Holyfield would be crushed by Tyson. And a prime Toney vs prime Tyson would be the Toney that beat the **** out of Holyfield. That Toney in my opinion has all the tools necessary to beat Tyson even in his prime.

Tyson would win fights on intimidation, he did not outbox his opponents. If he couldn't knock his opponent out he wasn't psychologically strong willed enough to be them in many cases. I think Toney has the psychological advantage against Tyson and I think Toney would intimidate Tyson.

I think Tyson would hit Toney with his hardest punches in the first few rounds and Toney would laugh it off and Tyson would eventually get into a brawl and Toney is a better counter puncher which means he will land more punches on Tyson than Tyson would be able to land on him.

The same thing happened in the Holyfield fight with Tyson. Tyson is a brawler, a KO artist, not a slick boxer or counter puncher. The same thing also happened against Douglas. So Toney seems to have the perfect style to beat Tyson.

 

so sam peter beats toney 2 times...but tyson cant beat toney once? you guys have really lost touch with reality

 

I think he beat Peter the first time and got robbed.

 

Peter lost that first fight against Toney. And Toney was way out of shape when he beat Peter which means Toney probably would have knocked Peter out if he were the weight he was when he fought Holyfield.

Tyson himself didn't always get into the best of shape even in his prime. He had similar weaknesses in this regard, but he had enough power to KO guys so you didn't know what shape he was in. Against Toney he wouldn't be able to KO him, so how does he outbox Toney over 12 rounds?
