    You say that Toney was 100% during the Jones fight!
    When did I say that?
    Never.
    However, Toney made no excuses after the fight, and neither should you.

        When I score fights I usually favor the boxer and counterpuncher, but I scored both Hopkins Taylor fights in favor of Taylor.
        Hopkins literally gave the first fight away, I have never seen someone so inactive.
        Taylor won the rounds becuase Hopkins did absolutly nothing. (Im talking about the first 7 or so rounds)
        It was strange, becuase had Hopkins flurried two or 3 times in a few of the rounds he would have taken the fight. There was little action, and I was suprised and dissapointed in Hopkin's preformance. The fights were his to win, and he just didnt take the initiative.
        I scored the first fight a draw. I think people get TOO caught up in saying that the first 7 rounds were a wash for Taylor because that was general sentiment and not objective.

        In rounds 3 and 5 both fighters land about the same number of punches, only Hopkins lands better, cleaner shots. In a situation where both guys do little, the round goes to the champion. throwing and not landing doesn't mean **** either.

        I scored their first bout a 6-6 draw. Hopkins won 3/5/9/10/11/12 clearly in my opinion while Taylor won the rest clearly. Still though...Taylor landed 0 significant punches while Hopkins had him stunned several times.

          You make it sound like Toney was 100%, so don't say you don't believe that now.

          Watch the Aresenio Hall show when Toney was his guest!

            Oh is this like the time that Pac was spotted playing pool and drinking two nights before the fight with Lucero? Where he flew to the states to **** him up? Oh that's right just because pac was hungover doesn't mean that he wouldn't have tore his head off his shoulders with the first punch landed given he wasn't drunk.

            Get over the excuses ***. A fight is a ****ing fight, end of story.

            If you're not 100 percent......stay your ass at home and save the cheese and whine. It's way too convinient to claim excuses here.

              Taylor gets too much disrespect for being HBOs darling. I say good for Taylor, even if it did annoy me vs Ouma.

                Fighters have off night, but Toney just didn't have an off night, he had alot of weight and personal problems + having an off night and having the flu.

                It's no excuses, it's 100% facts!

                  No, Toney didnt make excuses.
                  Whatever condition he was in was his fault.
                  He lost.
                  Get over it.

                    Tayor didnt land a significant punch all night.
                    I gave Taylor 6 of the first 7 I think, then once Bernard committed to his punches he was relativly dominant.
                    I need to watch the fights again, though.

                      I'm sick of Taylor. He doesn't fight, he folds while looking like a superstar. When he punches he has a look on his face like "Please dont' hit me, wait until I move outside till I hit you".
