Eddie Mustapha Muhammed vs James lights out Toney

Eddie Mustafa Muhammad by UD. He was a better LHW than Toney.

 

Toney by decision.he was better than eddie overall does not matter the weight

 

Well it matters, because they would be fighting at 175 lbs.

 

The bell rings for round one.

Neither guy shows much foot movement. They box in ring center, each using feints and a tight guard. Each tries to time the right hand. Each is a true counter puncher and neither wants to lead. Mustafa Muhammad has trouble landing to the head, so switches to the body. Toney tries to sucker Eddie by fighting off the ropes. Eddie will have none of it and waves him back to ring center. It is a tedious contest. The vast majority of head shots by either guy hit gloves or miss. Eddie's jab does find some success but he lands little off of it Toney tries to counter with is right hand but Eddie moves his head out of the way time and again. In the late rounds, Eddie is slightly busier. Toney, as usual, is too picky and his punch output goes down as the rounds mount. Both guys go all out in the last round but neither is hurt and there is not much between them. Eddie wins a UD by 1, 2, and 1 point.

 

The winner by split decision, Eddie Mustafa Muhammed. At his best he'd give anyone a tussle at Lt Hvy

 

Eddie all the way for me.
