    Awww man, that's sad. I could barely make out a word he was saying.

    I wouldn't call Benn or Eubank boring. Had a video on earlier today and Chris Eubank had nothing but praise for James Toney's ring IQ.

    Nope

    Lol! :D

    Why am I not surprised. Check the comments that idiot made after his 1st fight with Rahman at the post fight presser. That might give you some indication of why anything ignorant that this puke says should come as a surprise.

    Usyk is a better boxer and a better ambassador for the sport

    Toney is a funny ****er but has always been a massive hater. Never has anything good to say about anyone. And how the hell do you think Usyk is English? How the **** can anyone arrive at that conclusion?

    I will always love Lights Out, but the reality is that he is a PEDs abuser who sometimes ate himself out of winning big fights. He really should not be commenting on Usyk, who will have a higher legacy.

    "in the rematch it'll be different"...yeah...no.

    I remember him saying Usyk had fought nobody and should fight Jared Anderson to "prove himself" not too long ago lol.

    Toney was a brilliant fighter but is essentially an idiot. This kind of bitterness isn't going to endear him to the current generation of fans.

    Usyk has more than proven himself.

    I always find it sad watching incredibly successful guys like Toney and Holmes talk about how everyone that came after them is **** compared to them. It just makes them look bitter and insecure with their legacy. Just give people their dues and relax.
