James Toney Weight is around 225-228

Yeah,he did say 225 to 228. :boxing:

I don't have sound on my work computer. Did Toney say he was 225? Or you just guessing based on his physical appearance?

wer is the interview I dont see shit... http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/index their you go my dude! its on the right hand side mid way thru the page! right under " MATINN VIDEO "

wer is the interview I dont see shit...

The weight "if true" is a bigger factor for toney than for any other heavy weight. All other heavyweights have KO power and have huge physical advantages. Toney who depends on his work rate more than any heavy weigth also has no physical advantages and needs his skill to win. A huge portion of that skill is his defense which highly relies on bending at the waist. If Toney is actually 225lbs then he could be in better shape and have a higher work rate and punch output (Toney lands nearly at will versus heavyweights). Toney's defense would also improve with the added upperbody dexterity. yes, yes, and YES! i believe in toney

I hope Peter will finish Toney's careeer in this fight, It is time!

Going to HW was a one way street for Toney, there is no way (unfortunately) that he could make weight for CW again. The man just loves to eat.

As far as I am concerned anything over 200 is overweight.He is 5 ft 9 and has no business fighting at HW IMO........he is only effective because of his great boxing skills.Toney at CW was a fighter that I liked to watch.......He can't score KOs at HW and is not what the division needs as a champion if he ever becomes one........BTW I am no Toney hater I am a fan of his I just don't like what he is doing.

How much you willing to bet on Peter? 4 million on toney?

If Toney is in fact finally training for real, he'll win this fight. I agree with Atnan, if he's in Holyfield fight shape, Peter may never land.

Peters is going to murder toney ill bet all my credits :) i think toney has a great chance of not getting hit once this fight!

toney says he's that weight but I heard in a interview he was just 270 last week Didn't you watch the interview talked about in this thread? He also said he was 290. He keeps saying things like that becuase he doesn't like being asked about his weight. Watch the video. He's clearly under 235.

i knew he'd be in shape, but toney haters will still be making fat jokes :rolleyes: . at 225 its going to be holyfield fight all over again holyfield was shot. anyway,,,if toney is indeed in that weight range I think he'll win a decision but I think it is going to be a tough fight for him and peter will have his moments
