    Yeah Rahman beat him. And let’s not forget ‘Master boxer’ toney got completely outboxed by Sugar Sam Peter in their second fight. :lol::lol:

    Peak Povetkin beats the **** out of him.

    I don't understand the fascination with Toney at Heavyweight in the last few years.

    I've seen posters recently saying he beats ATG Heavyweights like Foreman ?

    I like Toney as a fighter but he's been getting vastly overrated at Heavyweight in recent years for some reason.

    He's very potent h2h from Jirov through Peter I, always has been viewed as such on here.

    If anything the pendulum swung a little far in the other direction, with him getting underrated in fantasy match-ups because of that dire last decade overstaying his welcome at HW.
