Toney of 6 years ago was an awesome beast of a fighter. He seldom lost rounds at HW and did so because he had better upper body movement, could slip inside, and would throw in delightful, crisp combinations. He was beautiful to watch. Wlad lost to FAR worse fighters than James Toney and we are to sit here and say Wlad would just pick him off or punch through him. It is nonsense, nobody punches through James Toney.

Compare Toney/Peter 1 and Wlad/Peter 1. Toney did the far more convincing showing really and let's not pretend that Peter won that fight. Toney takes the punches finds a way and THAT is the fat Toney.
