This might actually be a bad matchup for Toney. If Patterson doesn't get caught he wins a wide decision maybe 118-110.

Toney could rely majorly on his power. Patterson was aggressive, fast, explosive and hard-hitting. Toney could avoid the danger, but he would be outworked. In the exchanges Toney would be broken down. Toney should have timed something good, he had chances to do it, especially against Patterson, whose chin wasn't granite. I'd pick Patterson by dec more often than not.

Bad matchup for Toney. He'd lose wide. Toney's better off against a big, powerful guy than he is against a lighter, fast guy.
