Well, Roy made a big mistake because as it stands, Hopkins has the better career. Roy could've beat Hopkins and cut Hopkins out of the running to beat him in the Hall of Fame. Now Toney and Hopkins will surpass Roy, two guys Roy beat rather easily in his younger days.
Lol, 60-40 with the undisputed middleweight champ that defended his belt for the record 16th time at that time, give me a break Roy, you didn't want this fight. It should've been a 50-50 fight what Hopkins was asking.
good point.
60/40 I KICK YO ASS
Roy Jones-Bernard Hopkins

that one is classic too.
Roy on Hopkins: "60-40 I whoop yo ass" "60-40 I whoop yo ass" THEn HE BOUNCED LOL!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't want to make any excuses about the fight with Jones, but fact is Toney had to lose almost 20 LBS in one day before the fight, also he was having personal problems during that fight. That was not 100% Toney that Jones beat. Also I truly believe that in 20 years from now, Toney will be remembered more then Jones.
shit, if Toney beats Rahman he surpasses Jones. Imagine if Toney defends the title a few times...Roy who?
In the movie Tombstone, Michael Biehn challenges Kurt Russell to a gunfight. Val Kilmer (who is a badass with a pistol and is Kurt's best friend) goes out to the woods to meet him instead.
Val says "I'm your huckleberry", meaning that "if you are looking for a fight, I'm here to step up. I'll take this fight"
It's an expression of supreme confidence.
BTW, not to ruin it for you, but a tuberculosed Kilmer shoots Biehn in the dome.
the way Jones said "im yo Huckleberry" sounds really hilarious!
Toney came off like a fool back then running his mouth and all his stupid comments then getting whopped like he did. It gets old and takes away from the sport.
i remember the build up to that fight toney was calling roy out the entire time and roy just played it calm and cool and let his fist do the talking. which did a lot of talking. he didnt just beat him he embaraced toney that night with the chicken move and then the knock down.
and you can just see the confidence oozing out of roy. no way anyone would beat him at that weight.
i'm your huckleberry what a great line!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man, James Toney is one badass mofo....even made Roy look like a nice guy.
he is but not in that fight
he got beat in that fight real easy
but he is still one of my favs
lol at james toney. im the teacher!
the teacher got taught a lesson in that fight. since the board is on the subject of one sided title fights like last night, jones toney deserves a mantion
roy sounds like a repetitive idiot.
'thats my game. thats my game. thats my game.'
then toney goes
"imma knock yo punk ass out"
Big fucking deal, Roy owned his ass for 12 rounds straight, then Toney made excuses.
