....This is an interesting topic considering that the responses will be very different on 09/03.
Yes indeed 09/03 will be another test against probally the hardest puncher in the division.
Reggie Johnson had him hurt and in trouble. If Johnson was a better finisher and a tad bit more accurate, he would have stopped Toney IMO. That was one fight where I saw Toney dazed and unable to answer to his opponent's punches for at least a few seconds.
I mean just watch the clip above where he's hanging on for life and not throwing anything back at Johnson. That's the definition of hurt.
Johnson in those days was a pretty damn good fighter not a stepping stone by any means for any middleweight.
I do steroids (anti-inflammatory & anabolic) & there are ups & downs of course. Using juice gets you jacked & very aggressive but it's a burden on my cardiovascular system. I get winded alot easier doing cardio, hitting the bag & shadow boxing ect,ect. I feel like a fat kid. Most steroids puts on muscle (daaaaa) some can be 8-10lbs of solid muscle & other 20-35lbs. Not good for cutting weight. My anti-inflammatory are fucking awesome. They make me feel like a 18 year old again. I honestly believe James with all his injuries & the recovery process. He has like 22% body fat & just doesn't look like a anabolic steroid user. Nor does he need them he can fight his ass off. I'll add that I don't fight what so ever so no one needs to flame me for cheating. My use is a personnel choice & I love the juice
But RJJ fall was quick I mean for what it's worth he looked like he was in the Matrix against Ruiz. Then that Nov a fight with Tarver that some say could have gone both ways. Got KTFO in the next fight and look very Derrick Gainer-ish in some more KTFO action against Johnson.
The roid use by James Deca-Durabolin (Nandrolone Decanoate) is phenomenal for tendons and joint lubrication / recovery. Often added with other steroids in a cycle to support the size & strength that your body will put on real fast like. Otherwise you risk time loss due to injury if you don't paste yourself. Having said that it is possible that James got injections to speed up recovery. People get shots all the time for thier back and shit like that. The detection time for Deca is 18 months. No I don't use, know or condone the use of steroids.
Byrd schooled him, Ruiz went to sleep and the Klit vs the Tuaman may be intersting. Klit I think has the jab & the power to hurt him but the question is his conditioning and can he take a punch. How old is Tua?
James Toney he should have had the "The BodySnatcher" nickname and Roy Jones ain't a all time great but after ne zeroed V Hill with a body shot he was as brutal as anyone when he committed to the body. Mosley was pretty good too and I agree JCC and Mickey Ward were amongst the best.
something like this would be nice.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-5526288962212969712&q=John+Stossel&total=213&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=7
John Stossel Gets Slapped
Awesome I laugh my ass off
Role model, fighter and carried himself like a champion w/o making a million babies Lewis. Tough tread but Lewis beat them all... oh wait a minute he did beat them all already.
It's all good fighting is fighting but you get a lot more from UFC (alternative fighting) and if you like seeing folks getting KTFO then you have to catch Lindell fighting. Wrestling ain't all that boring when you're snap peoples limps and joints in few places. Some may say the same about boxers like Wright are boring. I love fighting of any kind (except for John Ruiz).
More word of mouth
I heard Jones is cut like hell and has his old body back from before he ballooned and dropped it off. He seems focused. Tarver has no chance.
Roy never balloned up between his last fight and I hope this fight is a go w/ the hurricane and all I got tickets to this mo-fo.
If you think about it, Winky suffers from Hopkins syndrome. Getting your fame from beating 2 blown up welterweights while they were 160 all their lives. Winky wont be a man among boys fighting Taylor like he was against Tito and Mosley. Last time he fought a talent his size he lost to Vargas. Same with Hopkins, he lost to Taylor.. Now people say WInky is unbeatable.... my ass. I think Taylor would win on points. These guys Winky fight who cant break an egg(tito's power didnt translate well, hell it took 8 rounds of hitting Mayorga flush to KO him and we all know Mosleys power is a joke) but this time when Winky gets in his little peek a boo shell Taylors power will shatter it. Plus he is now fighting someone with a better jab than him, bigger than him, and stronger than him, more punching power than him. And just beat the p4p champ twice.
Winky did't lose to Vargas it was a garbage descion and Winky more than hold his own against Lacy in training. I have Wright winning via another boxing leason and this isn't to take credit away from Taylor either.
