Early Peter vs Toney predictions.

[paul750]

The fight is a while off yet, but who do you think will win? Is it a bad move by Toney in taking this fight? Peter is not a skilled boxer we all know that, but can he in some way work out a plan to defeat the slick Toney? Maybe rough house tactics within the rules could be used to effect. What way do you guys see this fight going?

I see it only going the way of embarrassingly one-sided Toney UD, but if he comes in the same shape as he did last time, then it could get VERY interesting...

Peter by early stoppage.

I think it is a pick 'em fight going in. If Toney is in shape, I might give him the edge. Peter is a strong puncher, but in the Klitschko fight he only was able to get knockdowns with punches to the back of the head. Klitschko is much easier to hit than Toney so I am thinking Toney wins a decision similar to how Klitschko did it (albeit with far less punching)

Please Gawd let Toney come in under 230.

I don't even rate Peter's punching power that much, you know. Who has he ever knocked out?

His last opponent before this to convince us he was "back" was Audley Harrison's fourth pro opponent.

I totally agree that Peter's power is overrated

What does this say about Klitschko then?

[Shanus]

Toney by medium UD.

117-111 - my prediction.

I don't think that Peter's power is overrated, he is obviously extremely strong, he knocked down Klitschko three times (yeah yeah, its been done), but he also decimated Jeremy Williams and you can tell he overwhelms his opponents with power. I guess Jeremy Williams is the best fighter that Peter has beat, or maybe Charles Shufford.
