    Just received an information (don't know if it is 100% reliable) stating that Toney weighed in at 257 pounds... Toney should retire, this is an insane joke and a slap in the face of his loyal fans.

    He and many other athletes like Brett Farve for example have been doing their trade for so long it's all that they know and the love they have for there certain sport keeps them going far longer than they should

    you are right, nevertheless a boxer should train and look at least a little bit like an athlete. Should this information be confirmed, I will no longer support the fatman that s for sure.

    I have supported him for over 15 years now and I can tell you that James cant be effective at that weight. Jesus Christ Toney is only 5ft 10...

    I am thinking toney almost weighed 250 for his tangle in ufc . I know the guy can fight regaurdless off the weight but he has got to be considerate of the fact he is going to be in with another pro athlete that has prepared to face him

    I know. But he's always been able to fight heavy. Like I said, why not wait to see how he looks FIGHTING?

    If he fights again, comes in at a lower weight, are you going to come crawling back like nothing happened? That's what these type of knee jerk proclimations often lead to.
