Agreed, CC, this could be a very difficult for Rahman. I think Rahman will edge a decision but no way this is a walk in the park. Rahman can blow either hot or cold and apart from Toney hasnt been fighting good fighters in a while. Im thinking a focussed Rahman can edge it if he can get to working effectively behind his very good jab and boxing smart...

Having said that, my predictions for the big fights have been erratic recently!!
