    David Haye vs James Toney

    If David Haye makes his heavyweight debut against James Toney, who would you pick if you were forced to bet on it? What kind of fight would this be?

    I find it tough to make a prediction on any Haye fight at HW, just because he is such an unknown element there. I hope he does well though, I really enjoy watching him fight and it is time someone made the HW division watchable again.

      It's hard to predict Toney fights, because he can be up and down a bit.

      I think Haye would take a points win, but i think Toney is the sort of fighter that could make him look bad in the process.

      If Toney comes in good shape it could be real close, he will more than likely come in out of shape though.

          I'm going with Haye, I'm not convinced that Toney is 'back' or anything like that because Rahman was able to give Toney some trouble with his jab and grazed Toney a few times with right hands, Rahman was very slow.

            ** Hah, hah, this would be a Boozo kinda fight. Toney wins even when he loses and looks like a punch drunk face first journeyman.

            Haye would have to be desparate to take a fight like this. I'd like to see him taking on the well whooped Thompson. Thompson at least provides a test and might well derail the Haye FlappingLips Bandwagon.

                  Toney was outboxed by Sam Peter. I can't see how he wins nowadays.

                    It would be a very tough first fight since the step up in weight. I think it would make more sense as his second fight. A win against Toney would give his some credibility in the division.
