    Have you seen Tiberi vs. Toney?

    I saw this fight recently and what a robbery it was. I never thought I would see James Toney doing so bad in a fight. Dave Tiberi was constantly beating him to the punch, killing him to the body, and scoring like crazy while Toney was on the ropes. I scored the fight 117-110 for Tiberi and that's unbelievable considering that I have rarely had Toney so down when I score one of his fights. The only exception would be his fight against Jones, which was completely one sided in favor of Roy and his fight against Michael Nunn, but still he managed to knock Nunn out in the end. Has anyone seen this?

    Yup, and Toney won on my card. Anyone who can watch a fight will see Tiberi was missing nearly every punch he threw. I scored it 114-114 and with the point deduction Toney wins. Toney had very low punch output but he was landing nearly everything.

      there's a chance 'lightsout' might be biased.

        He ate himself out of that fight, just like he ate himself out of the fight with Jones.

          I seen in one boxing website it was one of boxing biggest robbery.

          Tiberia is said to be a school teach. Maybe He gave Tony a dentation and extra curivlim.

          Toney was not doing good because of the weight issue that what was writen but no i havent seen the fight and i wont come deep into it.

            No way Toney won more than 4 rounds and that's generous. That was a plain robbery and it makes fights like Whitaker-Chavez seem close.

              Toney was dehydrated going into that fight to make weight; but make no mistake about it....he lost.

                He lost fair and square to Tiberi. and Nunn was making him look like a NOVICE before that lucky punch he landed.

                  Bozo should be in any minute with his detailed description of how Toney utterly schooled Tiberi.

                    Every boxing writer I've seen who talked about it says it was one of the worst decisions in history.
