Future hall of famer James "Lights-Out" Toney told **********.com," People like Joe "The Bum" Mesi seem to forget what I've done in the last three years as a heavyweight, which is win the heavyweight title twice, beating Peter up and getting robbed. I've done more in three years than he's ever done in their life. Terry Smith is a good friend of mine. If you get past him, which I doubt. If you and Jimmy Burchfield, whatever his name is, call Dan and me, and make the **** happen. We can make some money, and you can get knocked out. Whatever you want to do. When I get done with him, he'll never fight again."
GL: You're retiring him?
JT: I'm retiring him.
GL: Are you going to be in attendance at his fight with Terry Smith, and turn the heat up on him to make it happen at his event?
JT: Where is the fight at?
GL: I don't know, I think it's in Providence.
JT: I would go, but it's not Las Vegas, it's not Atlantic City. There's nothing for me to do there in the meantime. If he's serious, after he gets done with Terry Smith, my doors are open.
GL: So you have no problem. To be clear, if it came down to it, I'm sure you're going to fight before a Mesi fight would take place with him fighting on April 4th. The earliest time that fight could take place would be the summer. You would definitely get a fight in prior to that. Have you and Dan discussed getting closer to the date?
JT: Dan and I spent a few hours talking, Danny Williams and a couple of other names. They can probably help, but they've got to come up with the money. Believe it or not, 70% of the people out there are offering chump change. They're offering fights for $100,000, they are out of their minds. How do they look offering me a fight for $100,000? They got to be kidding me, these guys are idiots."
GL: Give us some closing thoughts.
JT: I love **********, you're the best. It's the only best to get it straight from the fighters mouth, raw and uncut.
