    He'll be fighting the type of opponents he fought when he first turned professional back in the late 1980s; ie very very very fringe contenders.

    He should still have enough to beat them on ring IQ alone unless he is totally shot to **** and comes in looking like a hippo with 10 tits.

    3 round fight doesn't even suit his style.

    i have no problem with fighters getting paid for doing what they do best, but Toney is a punching bag and doesnt really make that much per fight. Mosley, on the other hand, still makes 7 figures per fight and , more importantly, can still compete on a level that makes the risk\reward even out. Just sayin...

    Fitting that he could finally lose his ability to speak any sort of coherent and decipherable English in the UK. Keep it going James, your gonna have a hard time trying to tell your home health aid that you need your diapers changed, a few yrs down the road

    Ironically I'd take Joshua against Toney.
