People need to get off Toney's nuts. Ironic that people are saying he'd get robbed if he somehow managed to warrant a victory, considering that he has a tendency to receive decions he doesn't deserve, and the only controversy Lebedev has had is when he was robbed against Huck.
The truth is Toney was beaten clearly by Oquendo and Tiberi, and very debatably also lost to Rahman and McCallum, but gets a free pass. Slan go Fail.
Actually scrap that.. Toney robbed Couture/UFC Half a million for that Fair play Mr Toney. A G indeed :deal
Thanks for the history lesson chum, all you need to do now is expand it into a book. Those yellow capital letters interspersed with the main body of the text could be a unique selling point.
Lebvedev is one hard mo fo. Think this is gonna be a hard night for toney. Considering this is a man who has always taken shortcuts i.e. crack dealing for money, and then steroids for muscle/performance. I find it hard to imagine he will have done the weight properly and I think he will get stopped!!!
There was no fairy tale for James Lights Out Toney in Russia Tonight. A sad Chapter in a extra ordinary life. Denis Lebedev seemed to put the lights out on Toneys long career as a serious world class operator. Lebedev who had previously beaten 2 faded all time great fighters in Enzo Maccarinelli and Roy Jones Jnr -added a 3rd faded great to his resume as he did all but stop Toney. He beat Toney to the punch in every round - while Toney consistently fell short with his work and stumbled off balance around the ring like a drunk throughout the fight. 42 year old Toney was just fighting on memory - but the body was too old - he shipped abuse for round after round - but failed to land anything back on Lebedevs flat face to make the fight competitive. Toney can claim the moral victory of lasting the distance and preserving his proud record of having never been stopped - but looks finished on World level. Toney looks like he will fight on - with a possible match up against Lebedev victim the faded Enzo Maccarinelli a possibilty - with Swansea Liesure Centre citited as the favorite venue for the fight. toney was interviewed by a giant russian ****** after the fight who shouted down Toneys lug hole in a attempt to intimadate him. Toney promised to "see Lebedev again" -
