Is Vitali Too Big For Toney To Beat?
This is hard for me to tell. James Toney is an excellent fighter great defence, great counterpunching, good chin, good strategy. So far he has done pretty good as a Heavyweight, hopefully we will see more of him at this weight. He has been calling out Klitschko. This would be a great David vs. Goliath matchup. Every one knows that Vitali is an enourmous giant, probably the biggest Heavyweight Champ of all time. Question is we all know Toney is a great fighter....but there comes a point where science and physics comes into play...meaning Vitali's size......Is Vitali too big for Toney to beat?

Vitaly is a good ten inches taller than Toney and I think 5 years younger.
Vitaly is also not a wild bomber that will take wild shots that Toney can duck.
Expect a slow fight with toney backed against the ropes and Vitaly choosing not to tee off on him but to keep a jab in his face for ten boring rounds, or if Toney starts to tire, a 1-2 punch knockout.
I admit that Toney could get underneth a taller heavyweight and break the guy down, and maybe 10 years ago (and 40 lbs) have some shot with Vitaly, but vitaly will hold, and not let Toney under him. -
When that fat **** Toney comes back, I want him to fight a legit heavyweight. If he fights another Rydell Booker he can go **** himself and drop dead!! It's time to step up fatboy and show the world you have what it takes to make it with the big boys!!Comment

Vitali will keep Toney at the end of his jab, land the big left and the fight will be over within 5.Comment

Yes too much Power and too big for JT. Besides I have said this like 1000 times JT will never ever ever ever ever ever get in the ring w/VK NEVER. He talks big but I guarentee he wont get into the ring with him.. Hey Toney since yer coming off an injury and Supposedly wanna fight in Feb or March fight Samuel Peters hes been callin James out and if Toney is so great he should be able to betat the supposedly one-dimesional Peters. My pick is Peters by 8th rd KO. But Im sure he'll be fighting a complete scrub for his next fight. Guarentee it.Comment

That is a great point, Eye8you
Toney has to be able to take out a big guy before steppping into the ring with VK. And a blown up Rydel Booker does not count.
Put toney in there with Peter, McCline, or even Grant and see what he does before feeding him to VK.
If Toney KOed any of those guys, only then would he start to get some respect.Comment

Speaking of Booker, it appears as if his "career" is over.
Rydell Booker guilty of drugs crime
US Fight Scene Cruiserweight come heavyweight contender Rydell Booker has been convicted of possession, with intent to deliver, over 1000 grams of *******. The 23-year-old fighter, who was outpointed by James Toney in September, will be sentenced in Detroit on December 10th.
The penalty for the crime is any number of years, up to life in prison. So it looks like the career of the former Teamcannon member is over, at least for the time being.Comment

On paper yes but Toney could probably take his jab away from him and counter him effective enough go for a knockout late in the fight but this fight is years from making.Comment

With so many different things to consider, there's no telling how such a fight would turn out. Toney is a great defensive fighter, but Vitali is very tall and even being a bit stiff wont matter much with an arm reach like his. I'd like to see this fight though...just to see who comes out on top
