    My best guess guess is Joe has him outa the in no less than 6...Frazier would have been just to much for James....The Forums thoughts......

    Joe puts too much pressure on for too long
    Toney can't keep the pace and can't control the fight, he gets tired out and Joe KO's him mid to late.

    Well if he pokes his tongue out at Frazier like he did to Holyfield, he's losing his tongue.

    Frazier by mid-late stoppage. Possibly by the ref, since Toney is so defensively responsible and tough.

    Before Toney got fat he was a middleweight.

    Nightmare style for Toney, he'd probably be stopped if over 15.

    I can't see Toney coming out of this with a victory. Joe knocks him out.

    Didn't they use James Toney as the actor that played Joe in the Will Smith/Michael Mann movie 'Ali'? (as an aside)

    I dont think he knocks out Toney but he should beat him on points.

    I think so to. I think Toney's shoulder roll defence may be slightly vulnerable to the left hook if Joe can fire it quick enough after the right hand

    Toney would lose a decision and talk **** after. Nobody's getting knocked out, or close to it.

    Toney was only a heavy when fat. Unless you take the Jirov version, relatively in shape and not far off Frazier's size.

    Toney doesn't have the feet to survive. As tough and wily as he is, Frazier would pound him over 15, and probably be the only guy to stop him.

    I would pick Marciano, Tyson, Foreman, to do the same. It ain't shambolic Sam Peter or old Evan Fields we're talking about here.

    Mismatch, Joe walks through him in 5 or 6 rounds max.
