    Toney by UD. Oleg was my boy, but he has nothing for Toney. James’ defense would be too elusive for Maskaev and even if Oleg lands, Toney has a cast iron chin so he’s not getting knocked out.

    I think the skill, savvy and durability of Toney would ultimately prevail here.

    Toney would toy with most heavyweights - thinking about it but not too hard he’d probably be no less then the 4th best guy of any “Open weight” era if he didn’t get so heavy.

    Toney does great against most 2000s Heavyweights if he's in peak form.
