TheGreat1 11-30-2004, 04:05 PM huh good question, Toney is my favorite HW, hopefully he will stay away from Tua. we all know toney would out box Tua and toney also has a good chin, but Tua has the power to KO anyone at any time jack_the_rippuh 11-30-2004, 04:13 PM huh good question, Toney is my favorite HW, hopefully he will stay away from Tua. we all know toney would out box Tua and toney also has a good chin, but Tua has the power to KO anyone at any time Yes, very true, and being behind on the cards only seems to encourage him even more to look for that knock-out. Toney would have to go into this fight with his mind set on two things, out-doing Tua (which isn't hard), and surviving 36 minutes of the relentless aggression Tua brings to the ring (which is hard), because there is no way Toney can stop Tua. guru 11-30-2004, 04:33 PM is tua still fighting??? he KO'd moorer a year ago and havent heard from him since... scap 11-30-2004, 04:58 PM Who would win between James Toney and David Tua?

Now doesn't that feel good, you may be in the running for poster of the month if you keep this up! tonytucker 11-30-2004, 06:11 PM is tua still fighting??? he KO'd moorer a year ago and havent heard from him since... Tua last fought Rachman to a draw, and since then has had trouble with his managers. This is currently going through the courts. I think Kushner is his new promoter. Later brother brolog. Kimmy 11-30-2004, 07:12 PM Tua would beat Toney, he`s too small to avoid Tua for 12 rds! The Fix 11-30-2004, 07:22 PM tua by ko as soon as jt tries to put some pressure on tua TheGreat1 11-30-2004, 08:15 PM tua by ko as soon as jt tries to put some pressure on tua don't forget Toney has a great chin, that KD by RJJ was only because he was off balance, playing around, other than that i don't remember him ever being down. tonytucker 11-30-2004, 09:13 PM don't forget Toney has a great chin, that KD by RJJ was only because he was off balance, playing around, other than that i don't remember him ever being down. Yes it was because Roy knocked him off his balance-not because his legs gave out underneath him.Later brother brolog. whdempsey 11-30-2004, 09:33 PM It depends on how Tua comes in there. Toney would outbox and undress the Tua that fought Rahman, and take an easy decision similar to Chris Byrd's. The Tua that came on late against Oquendo, or took out Moorer would probably also beat Toney. And that's no commentary on Toney's chin, that's all about Tua's power. Still, I'm gonna lean toward Toney, who has been slightly more active and much more consistent over the past few years. Toney by UD. abdiel2k3 11-30-2004, 09:34 PM i could see toney out boxing tua but if tua lands its definatly lights out Colonel Jones 11-30-2004, 11:51 PM I'm am one of those whose not convinced Toney is all that at Heavyweight. If he could beat Tua, which I don't think he could, I would then be a believer. tonytucker 12-01-2004, 01:49 AM One thing is for sure though-we would see just how good Toneys chin is.Later brother brolog. Rick Reeno 12-01-2004, 01:53 AM Tua is one of the few heavyweights with one punch KO power. The guy has knocked people out in every round, including the 12th. His power is the only reason he even stays around, some ****y fighter always comes along, lets their guard down against him and ends up getting knocked out. Tua is one of the most avoided fighters at heavyweight, noone is looking to fight him unless they are "forced" to do so. James has a very good chin, but a solid power punch from Tua would put anyone to sleep. grayfist 12-01-2004, 07:01 AM Good match! The way the fight unfolds may be a throw-back to the old days. I see both as a sort of throw-backs. One, so well-schooled (shoulder rolls, feints; tight, reflexive, accurate counters, etc.); the other, a persistent threat through 12 rounds with his power!:D I, also, anticipate it to be a Toney-Jirov, racheted up to much higher levels by Tua's power. :) TheFairPole 12-01-2004, 07:36 AM I think Tua would win this fight pretty easily if he is in shape... but he hasn't been in shape in years!!! So he would still win but Toney would win a couple of rounds! ;) acquitted 12-01-2004, 07:41 AM this isnt a good question...toney is a blown up super middle weight..who stands and exchanges with ppl...david tua WAS i dont know about now...but he wasnt the guy u would want to exchange with...tua ko2 ejk22 12-01-2004, 12:39 PM Toney is a great boxer, but at Middleweight, Lt Heavyweight or Cruiserweight. I am still not convinced of his heavyweight career. People love to give him credit for stopping Holyfield, but let's be honest Larry ****ing Donald destroyed Holyfield also so that does not say much. When Toney defeats one of the following heavyweights then he'll get props from me. Both Klitschko's Byrd Ruiz (unfortunately) Rahman Barrett Golota Mccline Whitaker Tyson Tua leff 12-01-2004, 12:50 PM I belive Toney would outbox him, but i dont think he can stay away from Tua`s monster hook the entire fight and when it finaly hits the chin of Toney its good night. Mikie 12-01-2004, 01:06 PM I believe Toney can outbox Tua, but when the hooks come aswinging and one connects, it will be "Lights Out" Toney. Xecutioner 12-01-2004, 01:26 PM i dunno, i just cant see many people standing in front of tua and out slugging him. it has been done before by The President, but we all know now that hes crazy as fucc. :D i dont like this match up for toney hes too stationary . all he would have to do to win would be stay on his toes and keep a jab in tuas face but i dont think he could fight that way . scap 12-01-2004, 03:15 PM I am shocked at how many people think the tuaman will beat Toney...Tua hasn't let his hands go in five or six years, seven hell along ****in time...he has never been the same since his fight with super ike. Yeah Toney may stand there and let guys bang on him but I can't see Tua's work rate being any where near enough to win....HEy guys I used to like tua a lot too, but give it up the samoan slugger lost it a long time ago! This is your thread ToneyT-you are the ****in man or brolog or whatever! tonytucker 12-01-2004, 03:18 PM I am shocked at how many people think the tuaman will beat Toney...Tua hasn't let his hands go in five or six years, seven hell along ****in time...he has never been the same since his fight with super ike.

And James Toney any more the boy... for a long time Ranger2408 12-01-2004, 05:13 PM don't forget Toney has a great chin, that KD by RJJ was only because he was off balance, playing around, other than that i don't remember him ever being down. Toney has been down before. jack_the_rippuh 12-01-2004, 05:19 PM i dunno, i just cant see many people standing in front of tua and out slugging him. it has been done before by The President, but we all know now that hes crazy as fucc. :D i dont like this match up for toney hes too stationary . all he would have to do to win would be stay on his toes and keep a jab in tuas face but i dont think he could fight that way . Is that a clip from Menace To Society? oldgringo 12-01-2004, 05:51 PM Toney has been down before. Against Johnson I believe...not in the last 13 years though. His chin is better now than it was back then too. Xecutioner 12-01-2004, 06:04 PM Is that a clip from Menace To Society? yup, O DOGG :D to add to the topic, im assuming we're talking about a tua that at least did some training and is in reasonable shape for this fight. im a huge toney fan but damn, i just cant see someone standing there and taking those lefthooks dodge 12-01-2004, 06:22 PM I believe that if Tua was in fightin shape, like 245 or so, he could do well against Toney. He could KTFO him in the mid rounds and like someone said before me, the Holyfield, or Oldyfield now that Toney fought wasn't ****. scap 12-01-2004, 06:33 PM I believe that if Tua was in fightin shape, like 245 or so, he could do well against Toney. He could KTFO him in the mid rounds and like someone said before me, the Holyfield, or Oldyfield now that Toney fought wasn't ****. 245 is not going to cut it if you are ever going to see David Tua legitimately challenge for a world title again. Take a look at the Tua who beat Rock the first time or the Tua that lost to Ike...he was in the 220's, thats the Tua that we need to see...if he comes in and states that he is in great shape and he is weighs 244, in your mind you should tell David to go **** himself...if he is serious about becoming champ which I don't think he is he must come in in the 220's or low 230's....230 anything would be a great step forward but I don't think we will ever see that. I would love to be wrong about the Tuaman but I am tired of wanting him to be champ more than he wants to be champ... moochi 12-02-2004, 05:08 PM i am sure toney would win as long as he concentrated 100% aaalex 12-02-2004, 05:46 PM i am sure toney would win as long as he concentrated 100% All depends on, whether Tya will get on Toney! drh 12-02-2004, 09:40 PM Tua KO. Toney in all his fights gets hit by an overhand rights. He couldn;t take a TUA, TYSON, Votali, Vldimir right hand. The shoulder roll is not suited to 250lb fights bchynn 12-03-2004, 06:11 PM Tua by knockout. Keleneki 12-04-2004, 06:25 AM I think Tua would catch Toney and knock him cold. Early, middle or late ... somewhere Tua's hook connects and it is over. carlos_thelover 12-04-2004, 08:43 AM toney hasnt proved **** all at the moment.....he hasnt proved that he can take a punch by a HW.......and on the flip side TUA hasnt fought for year......this fight IMO would be up for grabs.....if TUA is outta shape and will most likely be......he will run outta gas (similar to tyson) and TOney would win bu UD.......but i still think that 1 punch by TUA is all that is needed...... LIGHTS OUT KO 4 TUA!!! |
