    Cool read man, Toney is one of those guys who had a ton of talent and knew it. I don't fault him for the way he is, because where he grew up if you were the toughest you still had to say so, or people would challenge you.

    I wish he would have been more focused on legacy. He might have been one of the top 100 or so fighters to have ever lived. Sadly he is now a mixed martial artist, and former steroid user.

    Great posts and great thread:good. Not much more to add from me but I will say Toney from prime-now still wants to fight everyone he can. Yes he gets embarrased in MMA but what fighter would fight in an unfamiliar sport like that taking on legends? He fought/will fight LEGENDS(Couture, Shamrock) not cans in a sport he's not particularly good in. I wish MUCH more guys around in boxing had his balls instead of these spoiled princesses now like Pacquaio just became last year & Floyd post-Castillo. Toney's willingness to fight anyone along with his craftiness is what truly makes him old school.
