James Toney Batters Matthew Greer in Two Rounds
Collapse
-
Peter isn't more skilled than Toney but he completely outboxed Toney in the rematch. Wlad isn't more skilled than Bird but he won every round when they fought.
Toney would find it extremely difficult to get inside against either of the Klitschkos, and his best days are way behind him. To get excited about him on the basis of a win against someone with a 12-6 record is silly. Okay, he got his weight down, but he needs to beat some credible opponents before anyone can sanely get excited, still less talk about a title shot for him.Comment

He's ranked #32 by boxrec.
He isn't currently ranked at all by anyone else.Comment

LOL! His opponent wasn't great? That's the understatement of the year. His opponent had a 12-6 record against nobodies. Anyone in the top 100 would have looked good against Greer.Comment

but he sucks. controversial decision wins against ruiz and valuev? should have lost to carl davis drummond who even deric rossy dominated. got beat down vs wlad. he's the classic example of good amateur who can't translate to the pro ranks cause of his crappy style.Comment

pretty much true.
Chagaev is not impressive as a pro.
although credit to Wladimir for going after him, Wladimir actually tries his best to make the best possible fights.Comment
