    You heard wrong. Nunn was winning comfotably it wasn't close.

      I think you guys to rewatch the fight Toney clearly won the last 3 rounds. And was winning the 11th round aswell i had Nunn only ahead by 2 rounds at that point, and it looked like Toney was on his way to winning 11th round, so Toney could have still earned a draw had it gone to the cards.

        Barrera v. Pacquiao 1 and Mosley v. Delahoya are both fights that have genuine excuses -more so the Barrera v. Pacquiao fight.

        One fight is Lennex Lewis v. Michael Grant.
        Wladamier Klitchko v. Chris Byrd.
        Juan Diaz v. Julio Diaz.
        Angel Manfredy v. Stevie Johnson.
        Miguel Angel Gonzalez v. Koysta Tszyu.
        Koysta Tszyu v. Rafael Ruelas.
        Freddie Pendalton v. Rafael Ruelas.
        Marco Antonio Barrera v. Nassem Hamed.
        Eric Morales v. Wayne McCullugh.

        really theres a lot more.

            Lennex Lewis v. Michael Grant. - Green, overhyped.
            Wladamier Klitchko v. Chris Byrd. - Too small.
            Marco Antonio Barrera v. Nassem Hamed. - Underprepared, unfocused.

            The rest weren't particularly great wins but I can't think of excuses for them.

              oh and surprised this never came up yet for DLH-Mosley 1

              it came up on Beyond The Glory, but before the 1st fight with Shane Mosley Oscar De La Hoya was focused on making his Grammy winning CD and that took off from his in ring training/preparation.

                True, Toney was coming on. It wasn't a punch from a desperate Toney who was getting his ass kicked round after round. Toney had been landing good blows for the past 3 rounds.

                  And is that part for real?! thats insane.
                  Benitez dating Ray's sister apparently is true. I've read that a lot of times.

                  I was joking about the exact details of Benitez's poor training habits.

                      Roy Jones Jr. Vs. James Toney

                      That was just completely outclassed.

                      To the person who said Hatton - Mayweather, a Hatton fanboy could say Cortez didn't let him fight his style of fighting, i.e. hugging.
