See Toney vs Jirov.

Except Slapzaghe doesn't hit as hard a Jirov, and Toney has a bigger punch at 168.

Toney's weight-cutting probably costs him a few rounds on work rate, but he hurts and probably puts down Joke at some point, although not enough to KO him. Still, can you imagine the difference in technique and skill between the two? It would be embarassing at times, although Slappy's heart makes it somewhat competitive.

Calzaghe wins - because he never loses. He gets up from the canvas and wins. People always say Calzaghe will lose, but then he wins - get over it People say he slaps but like Roy Jones said 'those slaps are harder than I thought'

[Johnny Vincent]

Calzaghe is a much better boxer. I pick Benn and Calzaghe over Toney.

Here he go.

He wins. He adapts. He gets up from KDs. Yawn.

You can do that when your competition is less than stellar.

Hatton was unbeaten until he fought the best fighter of his generation. If he'd had never fought PBF, he'd be unbeaten after 40+ fight, just like Joke. Is Hatton going down as an ATG?

No. But hey, I got more respect for someone going down in flames and going for the best, rather than setting out a retirment plan when you finally start facing decent opponents.

I don't think even Benn would pick Benn over Toney.
