    This fight will apparently be for some thing called WBF HW title.

    Lucas Browne
    15-0 (14KO)
    6'4"
    260 lbs

    James Toney
    74-7 (45KO)
    5'10"
    250 lbs

    Can Browne be the first to KO the legendary former MW,SMW,CW champ? Or will Toney beat Browne "and his Momma's ass?"

    I don't know what to think of Toney anymore. The guy could drop down to cruiserweight and win a title and it really wouldn't even surprise me ever after getting his **** wrecked by Lebedev. However, he is fat as hell and this guy is pretty big even if he is a slob.

    Who cares? James Toney is a punch drunk, fat, washed up fighter. He is a SMW, with nothing but pure body fat making him a HW.

    He beat John Ruiz in the ring and was the only guy to really dominate and stop Holyfield. Not even Lennox Lewis did that.

    He's fat sure. But punch drunk? I mean would you be saying the same thing about Archie Moore fighting Ali?

    How could you even drop down to CW again? He walks around at 250-260! He dropped down for Lebedev and couldn't give it his all. Weight drained.

    This is kind of a freak show fight but I am curious about it. We'll see.

    who sanctions these fights? Toney is clearly brain damaged and shouldn't be allowed in the ring.

    I'd be completely shocked if Toney managed to grab another title at heavyweight or cruiserweight. He's one of the most shot fighters still campaigning. Reflexes are eroded to the point where he gets hit an awful lot, he can't pull the trigger, movement is non-existent, timing is gone, can't fight at a fast pace, etc. With the neurological damage evident every time he opens his mouth, it's probably for the best if he has his license revoked.

    I don't think Toney is brain damaged. He talks a little muffled but he puts thoughts and sentences together as well as ever. He is still funny as hell and he is coming off a TKO win. I wonder about this fight.

    Has any other atg been this irrelevant as Toney? Serious question too. I could care less about Toney in 2013.
