still, i would say that pavlik would not be dominated, simply b/c toney @ 160 was still relatively green and improving, weight-drained, and fought to the level of opposition.
at 168, toney was less drained and more dominant. none of his opponents from the barkley fight to the jones fights were competitive with him or gave him problems, unless it was with their head crashing over james's eye.
This is exactly what I was going to say. Toney at 160 was still green, and his punches were at times sloppy. I can confidently say Toney would beat Pavlik at 168, but at 160 it's not an easy fight by any means.
Also, Toney wins in his prime verse Calzaghe. It would be a good fight, but in his prime, Toney is better then Calzaghe who i personally believe is overrated.
