    And some that are just good.

    How do you think he does with guys like

    Holyfield
    De Leon
    Haye
    Wamba
    Johnny Nelson
    Mormeck
    Qawi
    Mormeck
    G Jones

    Toney at his CW best.

    Maybe all of them except for Holyfield ironically. Nelson and De Leon are trickier styles for him though, those are close fights. A Qawi fight would be a great fight. He'd make Haye pay for his low hands. Mormeck is made to measure for him

    like you posted some are just good. holy and qawi are the only elite cruisers imo. holy would beat toney but qawi-toney would be a classic. pick 'em fight.

    someone like Juan Carlos Gomez might present some problems for Toney. and why did he fight pretty much all his fights in Germany?

    The Qawi that beat Crous and fought Holyfield the first time beats him for sure. Bad, bad matchup for James there, who would always have trouble with intelligent pressure. He needed to fight at his own pace, and Qawi would press hard without getting hit much in return.

    Holyfield beats him too, I think, but James has more early success against him as Holy was always there to be hit.
