    I see a prime Tyson dismantling Toney in a similiar fashion as the 1995 Tyson dismantled Buster Mathis Jr. Toney was an excellent fighter, but it would only be a matter of time before the faster, stronger and much harder punching Tyson took him apart. Jmo.

    So you are saying that
    Tyson 5′ 10″ and 220 lb is much BIGGER than
    Toney 5′ 10″ and 217 lb ... ? :lol: :rofl :patsch

    Tyson has too much power and Toney couldn't keep him off him. Also Toney would have a hard time taking the left hook to the body in the philly shell.

    Tyson's 220 lbs was his natural weight, whereas Tony's natural weight was about 175-185 lbs or so. Being fat doesn't make one a HW fighter....

    Ummm yes, Toney at 217 was still very overweight and could've shed at least 7 to 10 pounds off his frame.. and Toney was a former middlweight so his natural weight was much smaller than that blow up heavyweight version we saw against Holyfield. You think you could've ever stuffed an adult Tyson down to middleweight? Holy **** you're an idiot! :-(

    Its really hard to say which wieght is natural, Toney is exactly the same size as Tyson, while for example Byrd is the 175-185 natural frame and he was like #2 HW for some period of time.

    Toney at 245 lb was doing just fine against Ruiz, Rahman anad Peter. I think Toney at 217 is just fine in terms of power and still posses great defense.

    toney would have trouble w/ tyson's power obviously, but he'd also have trouble w/ prime tyson's speed. tyson could probably outbox him w/o relying on power. look what rjj did to toney

    I'm just trying to find a logic in your point when you are saying that Toney who wieght 217lb is MUCH smaller against Tyson who weight 220lb. I was natural 7 lb when I was born but people grow up and are getting bigger when they are getting older ... 217lb isn't much less than 220 lb.

    Everything has been explained to you already. Toney is naturally a much smaller man than Tyson who's prime came it at about 220 while Toney's prime came in at about 168 or so. Hence, Toney's blow up fat weight of 217 means nothing. Any logical fan can see my point easily. Of course I wouldn't expect logic and reasoning to factor into your nuthugging line of thinking.

    P.S. Tyson KO 5.
