    but hypothetically if he could, he would make a fool of calzaghe, he would slip, roll and counter all day and take calzaghes weapons away from him, someone should ask james this question, his response would be classic
    YES! James Toney interviews are the BEST. Last night I finally watched his latest NC fight with Rahman. The interview after was priceless... he was calling out the Klitchko sisters and what not.

      The interview was more entertaining then the fight itself

        I love both Toney and Calzaghe as fan of the sport, but this thread is ridiculous. Toney has enough trouble as it is staying shy of ****ing 275 ****ing points.

        Also, remember Chris Byrd? Physical problems aside, Byrd couldn't handle the speed down at 175...and the dude that beat him wasn't exactly speed demon. 175 speed would probably be jarring for Toney at this point, even though he once fought (long ago) around Calzaghe's weight. And Calzaghe is faster than many lightweights for cryin out load.

        Calzaghe swarms, Toney eats a million little punches, Joe walks off with another easy UD.

        Prime for prime, it would have been an excelent fight...and I would probably give Toney the edge. Even so, it would be a close close fight.
