    At first I would have gone with Toney but the more I watched of Tate as a middleweight the more I could see him outboxing Toney.Who would you pick?

    Well take both at thier middleweight bests... meaning the Tate of the Olajidae(sp?) fight vs the Toney of the first McCallum fight..... I'll take JT by late stoppage. Tate was a good middleweight though, but against Toney he'd find himself outclassed, esp down the stretch.

    A more interesting matchup would be Tate vs someone like Micheal Watson, or Eubank.
