By Doug Fischer - By the time you read this column I’ll either be on my way to Sisley Italian Kitchen or I’ll already be at the fine Sherman Oaks-based restaurant to take notes on what Hasim Rahman and James Toney have to say about their July 16th rematch that will take place at the Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, California.
Yes, the big men with big mouths will do it again, on a Fox Sports Net-televised show entitled “Last Chance” by the bout’s promoters (Goossen Tutor, Don King Productions and Top Rank). Why are they fighting a rematch? I have no idea. I certainly didn’t ask for it and it’s not like the majority draw they fought to in April of 2006 was a classic confrontation, but the food at Sisley is very good and both former champions have engaging personalities and have been known to provide a funny quote or two in the past. So what the heck? I’m going to be there. [details]
