Can someone explain why Klit chose Rahman over Toney?

Cause it's tough to look good against Toney.
He is a better fighter.

Rahman has no head movement

**Silencers** · 12-01-2008, 01:41 AM

Rahman is ranked higher.

I actually think at this point, Rahman has a better chance against Wlad than Toney would.

Toney should get the shot not Rahman ...

**lefthook2daliva** · 12-01-2008, 01:48 AM

Because he doesn't want to permanently harm Toney.

Toney was already scheduled to fight Tony Thompson

HE WAS NOT AVAILABLE

I mean, if he had a choice, why did he choose the fighter who was losing the fight and looking for a way out over the fighter who was WINNING the fight and obviously the BIGGER name?

The IBF chose Rahman as the mandatory, because he was the next highest ranked IBF heavyweight available.

Wlad wanted to try to make a fight with Valuev, but he would have lost his IBF belt.
