Yeah and you would've made a good boxer too. Racist piece of garbage, forum was better when you disappeared.
Actually, this is a rematch I've wanted to see for a long time. I give Toney the edge in handspeed, skill and chin; Rahman the edge in power, reach, strength, height, footwork and (maybe) stamina). I thought their first fight was fairly interesting but could have been much better, especially if it had had a concrete outcome. Rahman needs to use the Sam Peter approach, which he can actually do much better than Peter: stick the jab to keep Toney off balance and then follow up with as many punchers as possible, keeping one's hands busy and not loading up on any one shot. In their first fight, Rahman tried to outwork Toney on the inside and use his physical strength. This fight, he needs to keep the action on the outside but still put up the same workrate. Rahman will win this if he comes in in shape.
Rahman has mellowed out as he's got (even) older and has gone from being a simple trash-talker to being quite witty. Toney, of course, is Toney: outrageous, annoying, inarticulate and utterly hilarious; the "Lights Out" character is perhaps the best persona any boxer has adopted since JCC's tombstone-like personality that he had at his best.
You can understand pretty well what Toney is saying. No translation needed. And english is not even my first language.
Rahman: "you finished, boy?" John Sally: "oooohhhhh, now let me translate for all the white people out there"
Toney is the better boxer and should win this fight. He does look pretty good from the clip (face looks pretty skinny)
