Toney by UD

I keep seeing Rahman getting outboxed for several rounds then getting his slow ass knocked clean out of the ring by Oleg Maskaev. And we all know how skillfull oleg is as a boxer. Then...there is that stunning points victory over the likes of Alfred Cole. Yea. Hes gonna out box James Toney. Right up till when the fight starts. At which point he takes a 12 round beating and not only loses the fight, but also looks so bad getting his ass handed to him it looks like he has downs syndrome. Seriously. He boxes like that kid Corkey from "Life goes on"
However...do you guys remember all those times Toney got KTFO....Oh wait...thats right...its NEVER HAPPENED.
hmm...where was I...oh Yea.....Cold. Your a ******.Comment

Monte Barrett (heavyweight contender): "Rahman. Rahman's stronger. I haven't seen Toney take power like Rahman's, so. Rahman's got a good jab and a good right hand. So I'm looking for Rahman."
Harold Knight (trainer and director of boxing operations at the Great Gorge, NJ new training facility): "Well, it depends on who comes in the better shape obviously, but styles makes fights and Rahman's style is perfect for Toney. Too many people are picking Toney. I'm going with the underdog! Toney slips and slides and rolls with the punches. If Rock hits him in the arms, the hips, outmuscles him - and not load up with the big punches, it could be interesting. If Toney hurts Rock early, that could be bad for Rock. I do not know if he hits hard enough to hurt Rock. And I believe Rock won the first round by the so-called slap in Cancun."
HASIM RAHMAN: Honestly I don’t see any problem. You know, I really feel like with the way I am and my preparation there’s not a heavyweight you can put in there that could pose any problems on March 18th. I honestly am not being ****y, I’m not being overconfident. I’m trying to like expose James for the fraud that he is.Comment

Anyone thinking Toney will win if way off base. Rahman will win decisively. Toney can not be overweight and expect to be competitive. If Toney lays against the ropes this fight we will probably see him with rope marks in his back from the pounding he is getting from the front and top by Rahman.
"He will be a bloody mess in the first round if he stands in front of me," "He underestimates my power. My power is a big factor and will set the tone for this fight. Once he gets hit with it, I'm not so sure what adjustments he can make," Rahman, said on Tuesday.

What's up with the odds? Everybody's got Toney winning the fight.
You know something, when Rahman fought Lewis it was up 15-to-1 now it's 2 or 2.5-to-1. This is going to be easy....We like facing the odds. There's no question, I thought it would be a lot closer. I thought it would be if not even, close to even.....at least we're giving people an opportunity to make money.

Forget about it, Toney wins easy. Alright, the rock has some power but he used to be more fluent now he is always looking for the big punch which will never land. And if it does it wont bother Toney this man cant be put down from one punch, at least not from Rahman or any living fighter. Rahmans game is to fight a close inside fight, against the best inside fighter in the world. He will get beat to the punch and get countered all night long. TOney also has a great work rate for a heavy way better than the rock.
Just like Hatton beat Zoo.
PBF beat Mitchell
Wlad beat Peter
Toney embarress Rahman and wins via KO
