    OK Einstein.

    The problem is everybody already know that Toney is the better boxer.
    Thats it? Is that all you wanted to say?

    I think that is a bit silly. Two old ass men fighting and one winning is irrelevant no matter who wins. As bad as I want Toney to win I don't really see how it matters.

    I thought Toney had a puncher's chance, but ESPN reminded me he wont have boxing shoes, so that can't happen now.

    "Toney isn't a natural heavyweight and won't be wearing the boxing shoes that play a critical role in generating the power for which boxers are known"

    "They" is the general betting public, and "they" have good reason to be favoring couture

    In fairness, it sounds like they estimated Toneys punch power and aren't basing it on anything concrete.

    I want Toney to render Randy unconscious.

    I don't know why we have bigger MMA fans than Boxing on this website.

    :lol:

    :patsch

    What the **** is this bull**** right here? Shoes don't make any difference in generating punching power.

    Has anyone here at least hit a punching bag?

    I mean that **** is just dumb.

    Muscle is not the biggest factor as to wether you hit hard or not. That comes from timing. One would expect a boxer of Toney's calibre to have better timing with his strikes that couture.
