How would we know? He only needed it as an excuse when he got his a** beat from pillar to post. I don't doubt it at all but when he was killing himself and winning, it was fine. But if he was able to gain THAT much weight in between fights - and he was notorious for that - then I would assume it wouldn't be the first time. Especially since he had only fought four months before and looked tremendous. When has Toney not struggled to make weight? He can barely make HEAVY.
Anyway, that's neither here nor there. The Toney win is a great, great win for Jones. A future hall of famer in his prime; an undefeated two-time champ who was as feared as any back then. And barely won a minute. Weight? Maybe. Something tells me no version of Toney was touching Roy that night.
I actually agree with you,I think Roy Jones beats any version of Toney.
But I dont believe a healthy Toney loses like that.
