This is the funniest thread I read today. After Jones losing to Tarver again this thread is entertainment. I am not gonna resort to personal attacks or comments on racism in sports today, I am just gonna break up this "match-up". I hope it is clear that on one side we have a big boxer puncher with an excellent firepower and on other side we got and excellent but really small counter-puncher with decent to weak punch. Lets start with Toney. What he likes. He likes infighting, he likes to back on the ropes and make his opponent miss. Now to Wlad. What he likes. He likes to chase his opponents, fight from outside, throw combinations and feints. Now guys let me ask you, if any of you box?
If you do, how do you beat a counter-puncher? you feint him and make him attack you. This, IMO the key to victory. Besides Wlads superior firepower and long reach(Toney just wont be able to get inside withou eating some crosses and left hooks) he can just pick toney apart from another side of the ring and finish him late or win a lopsided decision a la Byrd fight.
I would be rooting for Toney, so I picked Toney by UD.
I like this post. Jack clearly said why he picked Toney. Because he is rooting for him, not cause white people are bad and klitschko brothers are really evil invadors from the Dark Empire.
