    I'll take Calzaghe cause whenever people think Calzaghe is going to get his ass kicked he wins!

    Toney, by easy UD or KO.

    Toney was stronger, faster, and had better defense than Hopkins. There is nothing Calzaghe could've done against him.

    Calzaghe out works Toney. It's a stamina thing.

    Not the same style at all, a good mover always troubles Toney, also a fighter with a great jab, Calzaghe has both. The of course the fact that Toney goes into the shoulder roll everytime in defence to reset himself leaves him open to awkward angle shots.

    The Hopkins fight has nothing to do with Toney-Calzaghe and we're talking prime for prime here as well.

    Easy my ass, this fight wouldn't be taken inside and Toney does not hold excessively or fight dirty, giving Calzaghe plenty of room to get rythym going, the only thing off setting are the counter punches, which would be nullified whenever Calzaghe starts seeing them coming.

    Great fight! Toney is in the same league as Calzaghe and Hopkins, not better!! Very exciting and tough fight! Can go either way!

    calzaghe would work the jab before coming on the inside and producing flurry after fluffy and nothing toney could do.

    calzaghe TKO if we are talking prime where JC could actually punch

    I think Joe wins, but no one in history stops Toney at SMW.

    Tough fight to call. And that is all I can really say about this one.

    he wouldnt be troubled by that slapping style toney has a tremendous chin and is impossible to discourage joe is a great boxer no doubt but its not his angles as the guys he's fighting are not trying to be hit at all any boxer at mw to lhw in the elite level with iron chins great gas and nice pop is going togive him hell sakio bika lost on points(gave joe hell thoug) but the better version glen johnson will walk him down no way he takes the punishment chad dawson did or roy or tarver glen soften all those guys up records don't mean ****

    i think either Calzaghe outworks JT and wins a decision,or Toney catches him a counter right and koes Cal.
