    Sad to see a fighter who used to be the #1 Pound for Pound reduced to this.

    Agreed

    Drawing parallels with Danny Williams, this is just tragic.

    This is really low rent

    James Toney needs to be careful not to turn into Danny Williams

    He recently beat Mike Shepperd 24-20-2 to win the World Boxing Foundation Heavyweight Championship. Obviously a title that is completely worthless but has he really got nowhere better to go than this.

    Also ' call Matt Crouch about sponsorship packages ' what company would want to get involved in this ? Like williams v miles last week , it's beyond sad, it's just horrible.

    I thought he retired on a win guess not sure he said in an interview that he wanted to have 100 fights or win before retiring hope not his hard to understand now don't know what his speech will be like if he fights till a 100 fights or wins

    This is just beyond words. James lights out Toney, an exceptional fighter in his day, being reduced to this is just horrible. It all boils down to money management. Guys like this should be on a beach somewhere counting their money and investments, but this **** happens to the best of us. It can happen to anybody. But guys like Floyd and Bernard are where they are because of intelligence and smart money mindset. Both will never have to be reduced to this ever in their lifetime.

    You never know Floyd spends money like no one else, I still think he could end up bankrupt at some stage or certainly down a lot of money.
