    Did he forget about the large number of white heavyweight champions that have existed throughout history?

    The fact that Toney can say anything is amazing.

    I actually agree with Toney here. Spence is a highlight reel KO waiting to happen

    He's right , but 6 might be pushing it.. but it will be a matter of time before Crawford gets comfortable and starts landing bombs.

    Toney`s probably comparing Spence`s head movement with his own, Spence is not Toney`s kind of fighter, one thing`s for sure Toney himself would have finished Spence inside of 6 at 160.

    I'm not one to pick on Bud's resume but I'm definitely not sure it's not the other way around, if it's either way, which I'm also not sure about.

    gawd I remember that
    It was the 1st PPV for Bud & it was an absolutely horrible PPV.

    Bud didn’t even try to finish him was happy to coast to victory sticking his tongue out.

    I believe that decision hurt his marketability & his career.

    Love James Toney, but hes taken too many punches to where even he doesnt know what hes talking about nowadays. Spence beats Crawford.

    Bud`s style is more like Toney`s than Errol`s is, Spence is very upright with little head movement, Toney was more loose like Bud, more fluid.
