James Toney

"James Toney's counter right hand is a thing of beauty."

** True dat. The counter right pirouette he missed Rahman with and corkscrewed hisself into the ropes in a brilliant imitation of a drunken street bum was a classic!

James Toney showed excellent use of it against Jirov.
Jirov would catch him with a punch and he would stumble into the ropes and as soon as Jirov would come in (head first - as that's Jirov's style), he would catch him with a ****er.
I also liked how he used the uppercut in that fight. The left hook stole the show, though.

didnt hurt wlad, get outta here 2 of the kd's were bs punches behind the head, there were maybe 3 good punches peter landed on wlad in their fight. toney knew that peter is a clubber who just throws wide ass punches hoping he will hit something so he just avoided them all night, but i can tell u there was a moment in the fight where peter landed a left hook i belive it was on toney he was wobbled near the ropes.

I never said that he didn't wobble Toney or stun him with punches. He did catch James, but James NEVER went down and he kept fighting the good fight.

The sad thing is, I can genuinely see that believe what you are saying about Peter never hurting Wladimir. Peter had Wlad reeling in a couple of rounds...most notably the 10th. If you really think that Wlad wasn't hurt then you need to take your blinders off. At least I can admit that James was stunned/wobbled/hurt or whatever you want to call it.

Seriously, just once I'd like to see a Wlad guy give Toney an OUNCE of credit. I don't like Wlad much but lets not be ridiculous.

**** the haters.

James Toney > Your favorite boxer

I fought out of the same gym as James as an amatuer, actually had the same trainer at the time. That record is not correct..................Rockin'

He claims he had 35 amateur fights, record keepers claim he had about 20-22 fights.

But I've seen the 33-2 (32) thrown about often enough.

Toney has one of the best resumes that this game has ever seen....he is a great fighter and definitely an all-time great..

Peter hit James flush though, right on the side of the head. He wobbled a bit, but was fine after a few seconds.

James is a beast and Im rooting for him to beat Peter.

rydell booker, dominicj guinn,best win was ruiz but that didint even count, the sanctioning bodieas are on his nads giving him chances at tileshot after titleshot, its redicilous...

moron, the post said "the best super HWs today". neither rydell booker, guinn, nor ruiz fit either part of that description.

jeez, is ur head up ur ass THAT far?

[Lights0ut]

not he wasnt, what are u dudes talking about. Peter got an ass whooping that night and his face showed it, also he was out on his feet from a left hook in the 12th and ate right hands all night...

Complete and utter ******ity. Wlad was scared **** ****less the whole night against Peter and was knocked down 3 times...Toney took everything Peter got and came back for more.

Nice pic in your avatar by the way. Who's is supposed to be? A gay boxer?

[Bozo_no no]

Anyone who suggests Peter had Toney hurt worse than Wlad is an idiot.



The shots that had Wlad stepping in holes and falling all over the ring, Toney stood up to, recovered and threw back.

No question Wlad was hurt much worse on several occasions.

Toney took those shots and stood in the pocket with Peter, without clinching for dear life.
