JAMEST TONEY TO BERNARD HOPKINS: MEET ME AT CRUISERWEIGHT!
By G. Leon
Future Hall of Famer James "Lights-Out' Toney reached out to **********.com to inform the boxing world that he is very interested in facing Bernard Hopkins at 200 pounds. "This punk was supposed to fight me at cruiserweight years ago and he ran out on me. You know all about it G, because you wrote about it for weeks. Cruiserweight is 200 pounds now, if he wants big fights against fellow legends, here I am, don't back out like a sissy. Step up to the plate and get knocked out!" Remember where you heard it first
Maybe cruiserweight would be good for toney, hed have to train hard and get into shape and would be motivated for this. He would just be losing his fat not really any muscle
I always thought that Hopkins would win this fight at any point in their careers. Toney has always struggled with fighters with technical boxing ability even though he had a lot in abundance himself. Examples are McCallum, RJJ, and Nunn. Hopkins has a really similar style to the Body Snatcher mixed in with his spoiling tactics.
agree...i like them both equally, but for the reasons u point out...and that b-hop prepares so well, i go with b-hop by ud. no chance bhop could ko toney.
