Jim Lampley also thinks Klitcsko and Byrd would beat Toney. He isn't a Toney believer, but he will be after Saturday night. Larry Mechant as well, although he really likes Toney, isn't a believer in Toney at heavyweight YET. Saturday night will remove all doubt.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't see how everyone can predict a short, fat, old "Toney by decision". How do they expect him to last long enough to reach a decision? He's got to win by KO or go home...

I'll quote myself from another thread:

I know styles make fights but I still can't get passed the fact that Holyfield was able to handle Rahman. I can't even get passed Ruiz, with as little boxing skills he has, was able to fight Rahman his style of fight.

Toney will likely have his way with Rahman, just as over the hill Holyfield and the clinching Ruiz was able to handle Rahman.

I think Rahman will lose, but because he'll fight the wrong fight. I think he'll try to lean all over Toney because he's the bigger, stronger man, and fight inside where Toney has the advantage. If Rahman stays outside and uses his jab, it could be a very close fight, IMO.

I think rahman is going to be trying to throw that right hand all night long and toney is going to constantly counter it.. all night long, I can't wait for this fight!!

...A win over Rahman does not remove all doubt at all. Lets see him in the ring with Wlad, Brewster, or even Sultan. Hell, Sultan is a bigger, stronger, better defensive version of Jirov. We all saw what a war that fight was for Toney. If Rahman comes into the ring and looks like he cares, doesn't sleep walk through the fight while bringing his A game, and then Toney still whips him, then I will give Toney credit and I may change my mind about him not proving anything at heavyweight yet. On the other hand, a loss to Rahman will show that he should never have been taken seriously as a heavyweight.

There shouldn't be any doubt to begin with. Toney's beaten durable Heavyweights at Heavyweight. End of story.

If he beats Rahman on Saturday night, anyone who say's he's not a Heavyweight is an idiot.

You're another raving Klitschko fanatic who doesn't like Toney because he's a Heavyweight that takes the spotlight away from your heros.

With how ****ty the division is right now, Toney fresh off a win over Rahman is a top 3 Heavyweight without a doubt. Anyone who suggests otherwise is an idiot, or a 40 year old hack who knows nothing about boxing.

...I have always had tons of respect for Toney as a boxer. As a heavyweight he hasn't beaten anyone of note. Holy is so far past it that it seems like he is two different fighters. Guinn was sliding so hard and so mentaly fragile that he was an easy win for Toney. Ruiz??? ha ha ha Like I said, Toney hasn't proven **** at heavyweight. Bozo, I have refrained from the personal attacks for a while, yet you start the **** back up like your looking for a problem. Can you respond to anything posted without getting personal?

Sultan isn't even on Rahman's level. But someone who doesn't watch boxing is not aware of that.

On the lookout to not get banned hey? Good for you.

I think you're a dick, and you're back to saying stupid ****.

Toney was the undisputed Cruiserwieght champion when he moved up. That immediatly gives a substantial ranking at a new weight class.

Stopping Holyfield speaks for itself, even at his age.

He beat Ruiz on 5 weeks notice with one arm after Ruiz gave trouble to countless fighters.

Booker and Guinn were durable Heavyweights and he dominated both of them with ease.

Do you have any idea how it sounds for you of all people to be talking about someone not having proved anything at Heavyweight? You're the grand daddy of the Vitali nut hugging club. You were ALL OVER his nuts, and he hadn't proved jack ****. It was all based on what you thought he was going to do.

The bottom line is that Toney's a top 5 Heavyweight right now anyway you try and spin it.

A win over Rahman puts him right near the top.

With the current state of the division, that's more than enough proof he's a top Heavyweight at current.

vitali had good skills but it doesn't compare to the skills a prime tyson had, I think vitali would have been overwhelmed and would possibly be scared to fight tyson.

...So does that mean that stopping Holy in five years would have the same effect?? Vitali beating legit heavvies for years and years far outweighs anything Toney has done in the division. Vitali recently beat Sanders(who just destroyed Wlad), Danny Williams(who has done nothing but win since then and is in line for a title shot soon), and Kirk (tons of talent) Johnson. Toney has taken out Booker, Old way past his prime Holy, Ruiz, and Guinn. Get the ****er out of here comparing their resumes at heavy. God I hope your boy gets his dick knocked in the dirt. Your gonna be laughed at so hard. O.K., so what if Toney loses to Rahman. You think the Rock sucks so where will that leave your boy? Say it now so we all know where you will stand.

This speaks for itself. It's posts like this containing that kind of drivel that show what an ignorant, biased and uninformed idiot you are. You know NOTHING about boxing.

Vitali lost to the only two A class fighters he ever fought. Beating Kirk Johnson means a whole lot. Did you see the guy that beat him last week? :rolleyes: Corrie Sanders was a fringe contender who was old, out of shape and coming of a YEAR of inactivity when Vitali beat him. Danny Williams is the definition of a fringe contender.

Vitali beating legit heavvies for years and years far outweighs anything Toney has done in the division.

This shows beyond a doubt how biased and wounded you are.

Vitali fought stiffs his whole career, and lost to the only two very good fighters he fought.

Suggesting Toney hasn't proved anything at Heavyweight and Vitali has speaks for itself. Utter non sense.

God I hope your boy gets his dick knocked in the dirt. Your gonna be laughed at so hard.

My boy? What are you 12? It's really sad to read your wound up drivel.

You're in your 40s, you know nothing about boxing, yet you're wasting your and everyone's time trying to argue about something like you do.

Toney's a top five Heavyweight right now. Period.

A win tomorow makes him one of the top guys to beat in the division.

Right back to 10th grade non sense.

No one's getting emotional, that's what you do when you get BANNED.

1st, Vitali LOST to Lewis, so that doesn't prove anything.

2nd, regardless of who you like better in the group of Holyfield Ruiz and Guinn vs Johnson Sanders and Williams,

the point is you're the Granddaddy of Hugging Vitali's balls, and you're talking about someone being unproven at Heavyweight.

Losing to the two best opponents you've faced doesn't prove anything at Heavyweight.

The bottom line is that Toney's a top 5 Heavyweight right now, and the only reason you'd suggest otherwise is because of your Klitschko insecurities.

The only reason you cry about Toney is because it hurts your feelings to see any attention taken from your heros.

At 41, this couldn't be more sad.

Bozo let's get it out in the open, do you really think a shot Holyfield, Ruiz, and Guinn are more impressive victories than Sanders, Williams and Johnson?

Toney's most impressive win is a decision over Ruiz, one of the worst title holders in boxing history. If he beats Rahman he will be just neck and neck with where Vitali was when he retired.

And no I will not be very impressed if Toney beats Rahman because he is custom made for Toney. Toney should have no problem parrying that jab and slipping the right hand. Rahman is not the guy to beat Toney. I'd like to see Toney fight Wladimir, Samuel Peter (a fight he'll never take), and perhaps a rising star like a Sultan Ibragimov before I consider him the man at heavyweight. Let's see him just get by Rahman in the condition he's in before we even get that far.

I find it interesting that if Vitali had beaten Ruiz, Guinn, and a shot Holyfield you'd still refuse to give him ANY respect at all. Toney does it and suddenly he's the most dominant force in the division.

This is 10th grade logic, talking about people being people's 'boys'.

to clarify I do not think that vitali is a better fighter than toney, but as it stands right now vitali was a better HEAVYWEIGHT than toney is.. if rahman beats toney tomorrow that should conlude that vitali is better than toney in the HEAVYWEIGHT division. Overall, james toney had a better career than klit had and is greater IMO, doesn't mean he is a better HEAVYWEIGHT than klit just a better overall fighter/career.

I find it interesting that if Vitali had beaten Ruiz, Guinn, and a shot Holyfield you'd still refuse to give him ANY respect at all. Toney does it and suddenly he's the most dominant force in the division.



Yes, lets get it straight. Because nowhere did I say I was looking to compare the two resumes as of recent directly, because with Vitali's retirement it's futlie.

But a win over Ruiz and a stoppage victory over Holyfield a few years ago is just about as if not more impressive than anything Vitali ever did.

You do realize Kirk Johnson LOST to Ruiz don't you? :rolleyes:

You nut huggers are all the same. You want to twist Corrie Sanders and Danny Williams into He-men.

They were ****ty fringe contenders.

The bottom line is that the old man was crying about Toney not having accomplished anything at Heavyweight, when he was riding shot gun on the Vitali Klitschko wagon.

That's irony in itself.

What a ****ing old fool you are.

Ignore all the talk about what your actions are like for your age, your lack of understanding and interest that this site is about, and back to acting like one question sums what you've been trying to say all along.

What happned to Wlad when Sanders beat him into your nightmares?

Guys lose fights, and rankings are adjusted as such.

How difficult is that to understand?

Maybe go and phone your brother for some insider info. :rolleyes:


...Now here your really rambling and nearly incoherant pal. Take a breath!!!! What do my actions or words about anything haveto do with the conversation about Toney. You are trying to change the subject because your on the ropes in your attempt to prop Toneyup as the greatest Heavy out there. You got **** to back that logic and you still won't have **** if he beats Rahman as expected. However, if he loses, then you were completely full of it from day one, and your boy was never legit at heavyweight.

...So that's it???? He falls out of the top five? But Rahman sucks according to you and Toney is the man. How could the greatest heavyweight out there lose to a chump like the Rock??? If the Rock is sooooooooooooooooooo bad and Toney soooooooooooooooooo good then he couldn't possibly lose to him according to your logic. IfToney loses then his fat ass is done and the heavyweight "experiment" was a failure and he neve belonged. ha ha ha

to clarify I do not think that vitali is a better fighter than toney, but as it stands right now vitali was a better HEAVYWEIGHT than toney is.. if rahman beats toney tomorrow that should conlude that vitali is better than toney in the HEAVYWEIGHT division. Overall, james toney had a better career than klit had and is greater IMO, doesn't mean he is a better HEAVYWEIGHT than klit just a better overall fighter/career.

Yea you chose not to reply to the posts that pointed out what you're about and how you act.

Toney is top 5 right now, as a case can be made for Brewster and Byrd to be the top spot.

Unlike you, I think about rankings in regard to the factors that one is supposed to consider. Not that you'd know what they are.

Your whole "You think Toney" this and that just shows how YOU think about your heros, and you displace your utter non sense on to others.

A Rahman win would be the greatest present boxing could give it's fans at this time. Toney was and is a great fighter and there's a place with his name on it in the IBHOF but at his age and physical condition he has no business in the heavyweight division. All that talk about this being Toney's natural bodyweight is just so much bull**** coming from a guy who's trying to make excuses for a lack of discipline.

Toney *****es, talks trash, and makes excuses because he has the maturity level of some punk still in junior high. What he really needs is a good beating to teach him some humility.

Toney's top 5 right now, and a win moves him up to the point where he could be considered at the top depending on what you think of the other title holders.

Until someone unifies, the top spot is vacent, and the top 2 or 3 are all subjective.

We've already established how weak and spite driven your opinion is here.

Toney's physical appearence has NOTHING to do with his conditioning. At a career high 235 lbs he threw over 80 punches a round in his last fight.

You'd be hard pressed to fight a Heavyweight with that activity level.

You call him disgusting because of his shape, yet in the ring he showed every reason why he's one of the most active fighters around right now.

What disgusts me is watching Sam Peter huff and puff after the 5th round unable to put together a combo.

Toney thowing 100 shots per round in rounds 9 - 12 is everything that's missing at Heavyweight right now.

That show right there how much what you think means. :rolleyes:

So, you're saying that Guinn is a better fighter than Williams or Johnson? Is Booker also a better fighter than Williams or Johnson? Guinn is basically a good fighter that had high hopes in the beginning, but it seems he's weak mentally, and he completely took himself out of the Toney fight. So, you don't thin that Sanders could have beaten Booker? What about Johnson?
Now I admit, I would be a fool to even consider comparing VK's career to Toney's, but come on, I'm a huge Holy fan but what power he had is pretty much gone, and he hasn't done serious road work in preparation for a fight in some time, there was no way he was going to last against someone as slick as Toney. I'm not saying that Toney won't succeed at heavy, but calling him the man at heavy because of his accomplishments at the lower weights is a little unfair IMO. I have no doubt whatsoever that Toney is going to the HOF and he deserves it, but some of the things that are being said about him are a little premature in my eyes.

Lampley is an HBO employee and it is far more desirable for HBO, who always want the broadcast rights to the heavyweight champion, to have Rahman as champion.

Rahman is strong, can hit and box a little while is a good talker and is younger than Toney and has more to prove than Toney.

The title on Rahman is a much more interesting proposition for world boxing in general.

Of course, Lampley is play by play, but he's employed by HBO, thus a vocal aspect of their organization transmitted to the masses.

Look at how he shat on Showtime's Calzaghe-Lacy result the other week. If he was a professional in his own right and not tied to HBO, and appreciative of the needs of boxing fans I don't think he woul dhave leaked one of the biggest boxing results we'll see this year.

On the lookout to not get banned hey? Good for you.

I think you're a dick, and you're back to saying stupid ****.

Toney was the undisputed Cruiserwieght champion when he moved up. That immediatly gives a substantial ranking at a new weight class.

Stopping Holyfield speaks for itself, even at his age.

He beat Ruiz on 5 weeks notice with one arm after Ruiz gave trouble to countless fighters.

Booker and Guinn were durable Heavyweights and he dominated both of them with ease.

Do you have any idea how it sounds for you of all people to be talking about someone not having proved anything at Heavyweight? You're the grand daddy of the Vitali nut hugging club. You were ALL OVER his nuts, and he hadn't proved jack ****. It was all based on what you thought he was going to do.

The bottom line is that Toney's a top 5 Heavyweight right now anyway you try and spin it.

A win over Rahman puts him right near the top.

With the current state of the division, that's more than enough proof he's a top Heavyweight at current.

Vitali lost to the only two A class fighters he ever fought. Beating Kirk Johnson means a whole lot. Did you see the guy that beat him last week? :rolleyes: Corrie Sanders was a fringe contender who was old, out of shape and coming of a YEAR of inactivity when Vitali beat him. Danny Williams is the definition of a fringe contender.


This shows beyond a doubt how biased and wounded you are.

Vitali fought stiffs his whole career, and lost to the only two very good fighters he fought.

Suggesting Toney hasn't proved anything at Heavyweight and Vitali has speaks for itself. Utter non sense.


My boy? What are you 12? It's really sad to read your wound up drivel.

You're in your 40s, you know nothing about boxing, yet you're wasting your and everyone's time trying to argue about something like you do.

Toney's a top five Heavyweight right now. Period.

A win tomorow makes him one of the top guys to beat in the division.
