In this one I predict Calzaghe by absolute ownage. I'm not dissing Toney at all but a prime Calzaghe's workrate would destroy him. I'm not talking a KO here, I'm not sure such a thing is possible against Toney, but for me Calzaghe is too fast, too unpredictable and too busy for James.

Yup, indeed I have. I was feeling somewhat aggressive that day. A marginally more balanced post I made today:

Your opinion is your opinion, fine.
But he couldnt handle a 43 year old hopkins, toney was seriously quick handed at 160-168, had power in both hands, far more power than calzaghe btw, cos toney's power is proven against great fighters, better offense, better defense by light years.
I would have loved to see this fight, with calzaghe thinking he can jump in throwing wild wide shots and getting countered to death, toney beat better more techincally skilled fighters than calzaghe.
