i think people underestimate toney's skills and punching power. dont think toney would have a high punch output but he could definately hurt wlad with a left hook to the head or body. i see wlad landing a lot of right hands over the top because of his height and reach. toney has learned to be relaxed and comfortable in the ring, if he had a little motivation i think he could **** him up. he'd have to be trying to win though, not just fighting for the money.Comment

Tyson's camp offered Lewis step-aside money in 1996.

That payment was in 1996, because Tyson hadn't fought a live opponent in five years (last was Razor Ruddock in 1991, and three recent walkovers).He had been in prison, and so wasn't ready for Lewis at that point. He wanted Lennox in the 1990-1991 period, but Lewis ducked him. After Seldon in 1996, Tyson took on Holyfield.
By 2002 when he fought Lewis, he was clearly an old, shot fighter.Last edited by The Hammer; 10-26-2008, 08:00 PM.Comment

This poll should never be made . Wlad win 10X out 0f 10. To big, to strong, to fast, to much of everything for Toney to handle.Comment
