Wilfred Benitez vs. James Toney

...

 

It is hard to match them up since Benitez fought well up to 154 and fought almost his best at 154, but at 160 that weight proved to be his limit and he did not fight well at 160. Toney fought well starting at 160 and up to heavyweight. Hard to compare them. If it is a p4p matchup I pick Benitez to outbox and frustrate Toney, but at 160 Toney beats Benitez by decision.

 

Benitez over Toney. El Radar would make the lazy Toney be the aggressor.

 

I would agree at 154 and below, but not at 160. At 154 Benitez was great. He beat Duran and gave Hearns trouble. Tommy couldn't even hit him with bodyshots sometimes. It was amazing. I never saw a defensive fighter dodge a body punch.

 

Interesting one.i like Toney

 

A tossup. Toney is too lazy and even if motivated, will be hard pressed to score enough to win

 

Toney wins a decision. At 160 what did Benitez achieve.

 

Toney is too strong and too big for Benitez,fairly easy win for Lights Out.

 

Bentiez had everything he needed to beat Toney, except size. If he was born to fight at 160 I'd take him for sure, but it's a bit much to carry here.
