      The best way to nullify what Toney does best is to stay away from him, not come to him.

      Rahman has looked his best in the last five years in the first 6 rounds of the Tua fight when he was throwing 60 jabs a round. He was out of gas after that, but that was really the best he's looked since the one punch wonder.

      He doesn't have a very good chance in this fight any way you look at it (barring a shocker), but coming to Toney and trying to hurt him is a particularly worse plan than others at his disposal.
      I just don't get it. People are making it out to sound like Rahman is nothing more than a slugger. He may have slugging tendencies, but Rahman has very fast hands for a heavyweight as well. He can and will mix it up if he decides to go toe-to-toe with Toney, which he WON'T be afraid to do. We're talking about a guy who has tasted the overhand right of Lennox Lewis and he's supposed to be afraid to slug with Toney??? Toney's only chance in this fight IMO is to pull a "Winky Wright" and block everything while concentrating on counters. I think Rahman wins this one by stoppage or KO.

          I guess you missed Rahman vs Al "Ice" Cole and John Ruiz.

          He's a plodding slugger who's underacheived most of his career.

          Bringing the fight to a guy who's a much better and busier inside fighter is a bad idea anyway you look at it.

          Should he be afraid of single shots from Toney? No, but if he stands on the inside it won't take long before he's broken down and taken apart.

          The smartest thing he could do would be to fight outside of Toney's comfort zone, and that's moving and jabbing.

            Achilles...you're speaking on Toney as if you and you family have met him...and before you even got to shake his hand he slapped your mother.

            I have met James on two occasions as a young man and he was very nice to me and my father both times. Pretty much everything he does in the ring and leading up to the fight is a SHOW to market himself.

            Have you ever actually spoken with him? Has he mistreated you in the past? I can't fathom someone trying to pass off Tyson as a more respectable human being than Toney, but whatever floats your boat...
