Nigel Benn vs James Toney at 168

Who wins?

 

Do you think there is any chance he could stop Toney?

 

Do you give him a better shot at 160?

I am not sure I have ever seen Toney hurt below HW. I would venture to say his beard is on par with Collins whom you said Benn couldn't hurt at all.

 

I disagree. Toney has been down less in his career than Eubanks has while fighting stronger competition. I don't see how you can make this statement.

 

Then you are guessing. Eubank has been down more than Toney has and against lesser opposition. This would indicate to me that his chin was not as strong as Toney's.

Just because Toney was never hit by Benn doesn't mean he couldn't have taken the punches. He has been hit by HW who couldn't drop him. You can make the statement, but it is based on pure assumption that isn't even backed up by evidence from other encounters with hard punchers.

 

No Eubank was down more than once. At least 3 times in his career.

No matter the weight Toney was, he has never been hurt in a fight nor has he been stopped. His only KD were off balance and in both cases he was up immediately.

You are guessing by saying you can make this statement based on something that never happened.

 

Even so, you have no evidence that Toney couldn't have stood up to Benn's shots other than the fact that you simply "think" he couldn't. That's guesswork if I ever saw it.

 

Calzaghe dropped him as well:deal

I mean, you can say these things left and right....but I have not seen you make an actual argument for Toney's chin being weaker. Other than something that never happened.

 

You seem to be making alot of excuses for these guys is all I'm saying. What fight makes you think Toney's chin was weaker than Eubank?
