    Starling dropped a close decision to Nunn who was beating Toney until the late-round KO. Can Starling out-box Toney to a decision here

    EDIT: I meant at MW, Toney ain't making no damn WW here lol

    Toney close. A bit too big and too strong

    Toney, and not particularly close.

    James is not only the bigger man, but I would say the better talent and technician as well.

    Like I said, Starling is getting overrated.

    I think Toney's power (which Nunn lacked) comes into play here. Whereas Nunn resorted to just slapping/arm punching Starling's gloves and forearms, Toney could dig in and put some actual hurt on him.
