    I will like to go with James Toney. I do not think anyone in this forum can put up a good argument, that any other heavyweight is more skillful and has better ring generalship than James Toney. The only problem I have with Toney is he has problems with boxers with a little speed because he's lazy, beginning from middleweight. Mike Nunn was pitching a shut out till he was knocked out. Roy Jones was able to pitch a shut out and he lost 2 fights to Montell Griffin. What these boxers have in common is they don't stand in your face and fight they give angles. Thats why I feel Toney may have problems with Rahman, not because Rahman is a better fighter put Rahman fight froms angles when he's at his best. These are the type of fights where true boxing fans say "styles makes fights"

      AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

      This is the greatest piece of unintentional comedy I've ever ****ing read. THis is why Wlad gets hated on. WHat kind of ****** ****ing post is this? Oh... Brewster didn't beat him... Wlad punched himself out.... despite that being something to take into account when boxing... but it doesn't mean Brewster beat him! Quickly, diminish his win further then let's go back to the Klit Kave.

          James Toney

          Brewster has accomplished the most in his last handful of fights, has a couple of good wins, blah blah...

          If Brewster and Toney ever fought Brewster would be dismantled and beaten up. Brewsters still punches too wide, gets hit too often, and hasn't fought anyone with a defense as tight as Toneys. The handspeed issue would show up too.

          The only guy in the division I see beating Toney is possibly Wlad...based on physical properties alone. I hate to admit it but it'd be a big hill to climb for Toney.

          I'll be interested to see what Ibragimov does too...he looks pretty impressive to me, but he's getting old.

            Would any of you guys be interested in a bet? the bet is that Juan Carlos Gomez beats any of these so called main men, ie James Toney, Lamon Brewster, Chris Byrd etc. it could be a long wait of course.
