    Hayemaker would turn Toney's lights out; or at least get a UD.

    James Toney at his best at cruiserweight was far superior to David Haye, but time and age have made Toney pretty much a part of boxing history. That era of boxing ended with the second Jone/Hopkins fight, they are all way too old to continue at the elite levels. James was one of the best of the era, on par with both Jone and Bhop. David Haye never has been close to that level.

  • In their primes, Toney would toy on David Haye. heck Toney was once considered #1 P4P about a decade ago. The dude has solid chin, great defense and a hard puncher. Toney may get hit with a couple of shots but Haye will be KOed eventually in the late rounds.

    the james toney of 1997, vs the david haye of last year. this would have been a good fight, but toney is one smart boxer, and sharper than given credit for, even as an over weight heavyweight. but i think he'd ko haye by the 5th round.
