    Lol guess the irony, humiliation, and potential hypocrisy of having Tarver discuss the reason why Ortiz is fighting replacement Lopez, rather than Berto would have been too much. . .


    It's a DAMN shame because IMO he's one of the best color commentators/analysts in the business.

    Very humiliating indeed.

    All fighters must be tested, he came on very strong at the end of his last fight, if it wasnt for that Kayode may have got the W.

    You would require an interpreter if Toney is on the broadcast.At the very least sub titles at the bottom of your tv screen in order to understand this dude.

    It would be awesome if they brought him on the show and Al Bernstein turned to him and said :

    "Got any excuses tonight, Antonio?"

    That blows!
    His announcing shouldnt have anything to do with his "In ring".
    (Vice versa)
    Plenty of cheats & drug users behind the mic, Just Sayin'

    I get why they did it tho.

    I'm still giving him the benefit of the doubt for now. I know seemingly smart people can do very dumb things, but come on man!
