would calzaghe have beaten a prime james toney at 168lb

I think Joe would be too fast for Toney, like someone said he was flat footed at times and struggled with slick fast boxers.

Eubank may have won a SD. Probably not.

Benn would hav got stopped by Toney. James takes his best shots and the hard counters take their toll.

 

I'd narrowly favour Joe over Toney. Toney however would thump Benn and win a close one over Eubank.

 

Toney

 

yh i think calzaghes got the adaptability to beat toney, toneys a good counter puncher, it'd be like hopkins fight, but more cleaner puncher

 

Well, Calzaghe would have. Eubank has about a 40% chance. Benn has absolutely no chance.

 

Toney has beaten and stopped even faster more awkward southpaws like Michael Nunn 2nd to Nunn who was virtually unbeatable until he ran into Toney.

 

I have gone back and forth on this match up. But I beleive if Calzaghe was fighting on his best day and Toney was fight on his best day, that joe Calzaghe would get the decision.

JC will have problem and could be hurt in the fight but i am forever amazed by Joes adaptability and with that, his speed and workrate he would get a decision over James Toney.

Calzaghe UD.
