        Jones > Ward.

          If Toney felt making weight would be a major problem for him, then he shouldn't have taken the fight. Plain and simple.

              Yeah. He shouldn't have taken the fight if he felt there was a problem.

                'weight drained' for me is the worst excuse in the book.
                i'm not saying he wasn't weakened, but his preparation was in his own hands..don't use it an exscuse.

                  It really is, as if its somehow Jones fault that Toney can't either control his diet or fight guys his own size.....its one or the other and Roy has nothing to do with either.

                  Totally legit, not controversial win in anyway for Jones.

                    Toney once he had a little control from his manager became a lil un-deciplined. He is a student of the game but has had weight issues. That was a huge fight and he is a pro and should had trained properly. There is no excuses, then he shouldn't had taken the fight or made up some catch weight.

                    These two guys really didn't like each other at the time which should had motivated him more to train. Roy showed up to fight and outboxed him. Even Jones said in the end of the fight that Toney had a great chin and had to box him. Toney bad trainning habits continued to show up after that fight
