    I think alot of you guys are missing a good point here. Everyone has an opinion, thats fine, but why just dismiss the idea that Toney should fight these guys? Toney is the one of the few guys in the HW division that can make things interesting. Who cares who wins, Toney against most of the top 10 HW's is more interesting than most of them fighting each other. Love him or hate him, Toney is the guy who can make some damn good fights right now.

    PS Whoever said Rachman beats Toney............now way, the skill level is lopesided and Toney has a great chin.

      I think there is a lot of hype about Toney. Lets not forget he is an aging middle weight who will soon be competing with some of the biggest heavyweights in history. People say that he has a great chin, at middleweight and lightheavy weight without a doubt this is true... but what happens when one of the big hitters lands one on him - I don't see how he will be able to take serious heavyweight damage.

      On the plus side, I am looking forward to seeing him in against a big, heavy hitting, experienced fighter.... It will be a relief to finally have him shut up.

          Infamouz, I also saw James toney's last fight (Booker) and wasn't

          impressed at all. After the early rounds when he should have knocked

          booker out he stopped fighting and let him go the distance. Toney was

          injured in that fight but he should have disposed of him early when he

          had the chance.I think James toney is a great boxer with impressive

          skills but I dont think he could stand up to stronger heavyweights like

          the Klitschos or a Danny Williams.

            I hope he gets (stays) healthy so he can come back and show that he can **** with these big ****ers. It'll be hard for these big heavies to hurt something that they are rarely hitting flush or at all. I'm interested to see how he would do against a McCline or Williams or Klit. Of course I have taken my stance on this and I definitely think Toney can win a title in the no so distant future.

                Tyson would quit before he'd die in there.

                    He's an overrated frontrunner, with the biggest excuse-making, delusional fans in the history of sports.

                    I'm no kid, kid...unlike you. I followed Tyson from his amateur days, & for the longest time, couldn't get enough of him.
                    But, man....I got sick of hearing how invincible he was....& when he did get his ass handed to him (by Douglas) the guy sat around & allowed his promoter try & take the win away from the man who DESTROYED him.

                    He eventually proved to be a fighter who's a BAD ASS only when he's kicking ass.
                    Once things weren't 100% his way, he'd stop fighting as hard.

                    Yet....here are guys like you, still sampling the overrated sack.
