    Calm down there Betty.

    One Klit stops him mid rounds, the other about 1:36 of the first.

    Too bad Thompson got sick. Toney wouldn't have gotten away with another robbery

    Your **** ant crying and criticizing is about as legitimate as a playground argument. It's not a fighters ****ing obligation to fight the way YOU feel he should in order to win fights.

    It's boxing. Not punching. And he outboxed Toney.

    Because god knows Oquendo is a power punching crowd pleaser who came in with the game plan to spark the fighter with one of the best chins of the past 25 years.

    You're not very intelligent yourself, I think Fast Fred's going to manage personally. As for you... :lol:

    This is the worse I have ever seen Toney look. Toney had trouble getting off and when he did, his punches had no kind of snap. As has been the case over his last several fights, his balance was poor. He could barely even land his patented counter right hand. He was sluggish and lethargic.
    Oquendo just outworked him. He landed the cleaner shots, scored pretty well with the jab, and actually had Toney buzzed momentarily in the 11th Round.
    Oquendo also finished much stronger, sweeping the latter rounds.
    To be honest, I didn't see this as a close fight at all. I had Oquendo winning 10-2. It wasn't an exciting fight, lots of clinching, slow pace.
    Toney is a shot fighter and needs to retire immediately. People are concerned about Holyfield's health and rightfully so, but I'm concerned for Toney as well. He has lost so much of his slickness and defense, that he would take a bad beating against any decent puncher.

    well when oquendo crys with any fight that goes to cards....then hes obviously not doing enough or his style sucks so bad judges dont credit him. so you have to do one of 2 things....KO or land some meaningful punches....
    i dont feel sorry for him...hes one of the worst heavyweights in the last 30 years

    That was sad, all because of name recognition. This was almost as bad as the Emanual Agustus decision.
