    Toney is a blown up middleweight, as I said Holyfield was shot, and Peter was a one dimensional clumsy fighter , Johnson ain't. He stops Toney in a 15 rounder.

    A close fight imo with Toney taking most of the first half and Jack edging his way in with the upper cuts in the second. Neither man looks seriously in trouble and it's a split Dec.. To Johnson.

    What durable/defensive fighter did Johnson ever stop? That's a bold claim. Toney was down like 2x in over 80 fights and was never stopped.

    Dont answer my question with a question.

    You made a claim that Johnson could stop toney. What in Johnson's record makes you believe that?

    I have no opinion on the matter i didnt even vote.

    toney proved his vin at heavyweight and Johnson was not a puncher.

    Toney who would not be giving up more then 2 inches in height
