    Toney would tag McClellan up with multiple combinations, specifically counter right hands. This is a horrible fight for McClellan.

    Agree. Horrible fight for Gerald. Toney wins however wide he feels like, G-Man only wins the rounds he has off.

    Hard to imagine too many worse matchups for G-Man.

    Toney KO 8, after Gerald crumbles from being hit at will.

    GMAN matches up really well with some ATGs, this isn't 1 of them

    Toney would win by late round knockout probably.

    This.
    Toney was exceptional at rolling with right hands, then countering with his own. This opens up McClellan for Toney's body punches. He will break Gerald down eventually.

    Terrible matchup for the G-Man. Especially as he became more in love with his power and sloppy defensively. Toney loves aggressive fighters who leave openings for him to counter. McClellan's "puncher's chance" is even slimmer given that Toney is one of the toughest ****ers to lace em up.

    As long as Toney is in shape,he knocks McClellan out.Toney had a granite chin and was a defensive whiz who only had problems with slick speedsters,which Gerald obviously wasn't.He would shoulder roll and counterpunch the **** out of Gerald.McClellan would have no answers for James and would be stopped.
