That's what I thought you were thinking. Fighters don't need to have fast feet to have a stylistic advantage over Canelo. Toney's fluidness, durability and stamina would give him the advantage over Canelo from what I can see. That doesn't mean I think Toney is Canelo's kryptonite, I actually think it would be a very competitive fight with Canelo having a real shot of winning via decision, but I favor Toney.
James Toney vs Canelo ? (Prime for Prime )

Alvarez and Toney are both strong in the same area's 'But Toney is better in those area's'.
Toney's offense and defense on attack is superior to Alvarez's.
Toney's endurance and durability is also more proven.
It is not a bad stylistic match up for ether fighter 'Neither fighter has super great movement'.
But again both fighters are educated with their movement, and on the inside 'Toney's stepping movements, for me are better than Alvarez's'.
Skill for skill they are not miles apart. But Alvarez definitely is not superior to Toney in any department.
Toney also has more gears. So when you combine all of those strengths for Toney 'For me he will be the fighter winning most of the rounds'.
I am not sure why you think this match up does not favor Toney? Alvarez does not have great movement, his stamina and endurance is nothing great, and he is not a monster puncher 'So what exactly is meant to intimidate Toney?'.
It is a good fight for both fighters stylistically, it would be a competitive fight 'But James Toney is just too good at what he does'.

Why do you always randomly put quote marks on random sentences for no reason? Are you aware that isn’t how the English language works?

In all honesty, Toney isn’t superior to Canelo in any area. Maybe stamina, but Toney has faded down the stretch on multiple occasions aswell.
Its likely a SD type of fight.Last edited by IronDanHamza; 04-12-2023, 05:37 PM.Comment

Toney's durability is more proven, by the very fact he has been able to be competitive at 175, 190 and in the Heavyweight division 'Toney actually campaigned in this weight classes, he did not just have one fight here and there'.

I would say at-least in 4 area's Toney is superior to Alvarez 'Offense, defense, durability and stamina'.
They are pretty much level in all other area's 'But Toney is just that much better in the area's where both fighters excel'.
Overall it is a competitive fight, it is not a bad match up stylistically for ether fighter 'But it is a tough fight for both fighters'.

You’re doing it again. Why do you put random quotation marks on random sentences for no reason? Is English your first language?

Canelo has shown no weakness at all in durability. Canelo never been dropped. Toney got dropped at 160 and 168.
He’s not superior on offence, and he’s not superior in defence.
Stamina you can argue. But that’s it really.Comment
