    I'm not sure what to think of Toney's performance against Rahman because we didn't get to see much of anything, Toney did look like he had better upper body movement but Rahman's jab was still giving him trouble and grazed Toney a few times with right hands, Rahman is pretty slow now, if Haye manages to carry his speed up with him, his speed will give Toney a lot of problems.

                So you're saying Cotto's chin hasn't improved from 140, where he was draining himself to make weight and got hurt badly by Chop Chop Corley and Ricardo Torres?

                He got hit by some huge shots from Mosley and Judah and more often than not took them well.

                Klitschko never had to move up in weight.

                  I give this man my respect because even though he's from across the pond, he shares his vision without bias.

                  See, what this guy just said is what I'd call, THE MOTHER****ING TRUTH OF THE MATTER...

                  and to the guy who said Toney hasn't KO'd an elite fighter in however long...It's off point because Toney's been fighting Heavies, Haye is a cruiser moving up. Haye's chin is so much weaker than anyone Toney's been fighting in recent years...Also, Haye is about as elite as Lacy was before Calzaghe roasted him...
                  probably less elite than lacy actually seeing as how crazy fans were for 'left hook lacy' due to shobox....

                    But Haye's not an elite fighter.

                    Super middleweight Mock almost KOed Haye, and 40 year old light heavyweight Thompson stopped him. I'm sure a great fighter like Toney can do it, even if he's only half the boxer he used to be!

                      Are we talking about a different James Toney to the one that got OUTBOXED by SAM PETER?
