    Never seen this video, thanks for posting. :good

    Nice to see Chis and Nigel on the same side.

    :rofl at Mickey Rourke standing there almost trying to look as awkward as possible.

    Btw Ive always had a real feeling that Chris Eubank would have edged a decision over Toney, its a shame it never happened.

    I have seen this before. Whilst Eubank and Benn fought good competition, Toney embarked on some of the worst SMW title defences for such a highly hyped fighter.

    look at the level Toney was fighting at, when SMW champ

    1993 he wins the title from iran barkley a fighter who years earlier was blown away by nigel benn in 1 round and pummelled to a loss by a shot roberto duran barkley went onto lose 11 out of 25 fights following this fight and never beat anyone who was remotely good in doing so,the guy was so desperate he was even plying his trade as a HW in the late 90's against the likes of berbick and they say this era is a joke

    govonor chambers a guy with a career record of 9 wins 7 losses, all 3 fights prior to toney were ko losses!

    ricky thomas: won 11 lost 14,the 4 fights he had prior to toney all losses!

    glenn thomas:won 29 lost 8, lost to roy jones prior to toney and finished his career with a first round ko loss to jeff lacy.

    danny garcia: won 30 lost 22, was coming off losses to chris pyatt (a steve collins victim) lamar parks etc

    larry prather: won 19 lost 24,lost his last 5 fights prior to the toney fight even losing to nicky piper

    tony thornton: won 37 lost 7,lost to chris eubank a year earlier.

    anthony hembrick: won 31 lost 8,lost to maske prior to toney and orlin norris a year earlier.

    tim littles: won 27 lost 3,maybe one of his better wins,had fought mainly bums with the exception of a close UD over frankie liles,went onto lose to frankie liles in a 2nd contest following the toney fight.

    vinsom durham: won 21 lost 37 enough said.

    charles williams: won 37 lost 7 drew 3,lost to maske prior to toney.
    (this post was improvised from ESB great Silencer, on one of his great threads)and finally the Jones fight and, That was Jones big SMW victory where Toney was alledgedly weight weakend, other than that Jones didnt do much at SMW.

    Eubank and Benn though had some good genuine SMW victories

    Benn beat Wharton, McClellan, Nardiello, Galvano and drew with Eubank

    Eubank beat Watson, Rocchigiani undefeated became a 2 weight world champ, Wharton, Holmes and drew with Benn.

    Eubank and Benn were fighting at a much higher level at SMW.

    the reasons his opponents were weak at 168 for the most part is because the division has sucked for years. the super six has made the division the strongest it's ever been. you know toney fought holyfield, jones, jirov, mccallum x3, peter x2, ruiz, rahman x2 just to name a few. benn and eubank were good at their best but toney would have taken them to school. i think you knew that as you wrote your ridiculous post.

    The 160 pound version of Eubank may have a chance. The 168 pound version I don't think so. Eubank had lost alot speed when he went to 168 and looked pretty average. Evidenced by his performance in the second Benn fight. Toney would have schooled him and Nigel.

    Tell me what was ridiculous about the post. Dont make comments if you cant back them up.
    The division wasnt weak, Toney could have fought many good SMWs Eubank, Benn, Liles, Rocchigiani, to name a few, but this post says it all below
    :deal
