    Just like he was clueless against old Toney? It was similar close fight than Toney vs. Oquendo, with Oquendo once again losing decission because his boring style. Many tought Oquendo really won that fight

    So dont write some random **** up, just because you see result in boxrec

    Toney has good manners and knows he shouldn't speak with his mouth full.

    Probably right.

    But really, I am not sure about Toney's finances ( he may have been good with his career earnings and is sitting well), I think he's more ego-driven, and loves the attention too much to let it go. That, more so than needing the money.

    Just my take.

    Well he is a (albeit minor) HW world champ. How can he not be ****? At what point am I not being realistic? I said that Toney would be slaughtered by Wlad today. The only point I was making was that if Toney calls you out he will fight you, if you call him out he will fight you, and that he should not under any circumstances be lumped with haye and mayweather

    He's the most delusional fighter i've ever heard....the most feared man in boxing for over 10yrs? Don't make me laugh!
    Toney for me is a spent force. Long spent. Its only his talk that keeps him getting press. What was his last great fight? Yeah..years ago. But my view is he should retire as hes not getting any younger or easier to understand. Its getting now to the point were you need subtitles to understand him sometimes. For his own health and his kids sake he should retire.

    Wlad offered Toney a fight some years back and Toney turned it down.

    Wlad offered Toney a fight and Toney said he wasn't getting enough money and turned it down.

    I thought Oquendo beat Toney clearly. Major robbery. James really needs to retire. His slurring is getting worse all the time.

    Exactly :deal

    Toney fans seem to forget this little factoid. Toney turned down a $1.5 Mil offer for a fight with Klitschko.

    Beat him clearly by what? He just runned away, tap jab without any power to Toneys shoulder and clinh everytme when they were close.

    Toney initiated agression all night and throwed all the power punches in the match.


    **** fight and it was that, because Oquendos gay fighting style.

    People just ***** about it because they dont like Toney.

    Hes still counting his 500000+ Dollars. IMO he chose to cash out, now good riddance.
