Samuel Peter vs. James Toney II, billed as Redemption, was a professional boxing match contested on September 2, 2006 for the NABF heavyweight title.

In a closely contested bout, Peter was named the winner by split decision, being named winner on two of the judge's scorecards while Toney, having suffered his first loss in over nine years, had been ruled the victor by the third judge.

"[2] Toney's promoter Dan Goossen approached Peter's promoter Dino Duva about an immediate rematch, but Duva and Peter declined, wishing to instead move on to challenge Maskaev for the WBC heavyweight title early the following year.

This decision would cause Goossen to officially appeal Peter's victory to the WBC and the organization's board of governors voted 21–10 in favor of a Peter–Toney rematch with the fight once again being declared a WBC heavyweight title eliminator.

Peter would score the fight's only knockdown, catching Toney with a left jab to the chin 10 seconds into the second round, becoming the first fighter to score a knockdown over Toney since Roy Jones Jr. over 12 years earlier.
