This is why Toney is the Best HW out there

[tracylee]

I agree the fight should have been stopped. The corner should have thrown in the towel. They were just standing there watching thier fighter get beaten to a pulp. It was really sad. My girlfriend who doesnt like boxing was watching it with me and she started crying because Booker was getting beaten so bad. That fight didnt help me make her a fan, thats for sure.

That's enough to turn anybody off of the sport, let alone a female who doesnt watch on a regular basis.

You and I are on the same page. This notion that because a person doesnt bruise their opponent, they have no power is lame. Thats a good point about VK and Lennox. Lennox had no bruises and is known to have a glass jaw and VK couldnt finish him. I guess VK has no power. What cracks me up is this bull**** that Toney has no power because he didnt KO Booker. First of all, he TKOed his ass a couple times in the fight. Second of all, NO ONE has KOed Booker! How can you say Toney has no power because he didnt do it when no one has been able to do it. Dumb ass argument.

Its actually quite a logical argument. Booker has fought no one who should have KO'd him. Second Lewis does not have a glass chin. Getting KO'd twice in your career does not = having a glass chin. Glass chin = Michael Grant.

WTF is up with all the Toney bashing? What did he do last night that was so wrong? All he did was go out and win his comeback fight and a buch of people are calling him names and acting like hes a bad fighter. ****, get a life people.

I'm sorry man but the # 1 WBC contender should handle a C/D level opponent better.

I'd rather suck my own ass than talk face to face with a European.
It's a fresh air, gag-reflex issue, Panzy.

There you go! Good on you, buddy.

Also glass chin = Wlad

Luis got KOed 2 times from 1 punch KO's. His chin may not be as glass as some others but the dude can get Koed at any time when he fights.

It is actually quite an illogical argument to say Toney has no power because he didnt knock out Booker. How can you say that he never fought someone who should have knocked him out? How do you know how hard everyone punches and what punches everyone can take? If no one has ever KOed Booker, you cannot say wether or not he is an easy person to KO. Simple as that. If no one else has done it, you cant take anything away from James for not being able to do it either.

James KOed Holyfield and didnt KO Booker. Does that mean that Booker has a better chin. I think it might. Does it mean that Booker has a good chin? I think so.

The guy wasnt a complete bum, and what do you mean "handle better" Is pure destruction throughout 12 rounds not good enough for you or something? The guy had a good chin and was never KOed cold. That says a lot for his chin. James Toney destroyed that guy. How could he have possibly handled him better?

Admit it, your just a hater.

If Toney fans feel their fighter did very good yesterday, then they should feel good, and feel content. They then have a very good fighter.

Who has Booker faced who should have KO'd him? Booker's opponents not counting Toney have a dismal 19-77-2 in their previous 6 fights before fighting him. Do I need to repeat that? I will anyways. 19-77-2. If Booker were not a C/D level fighter he should be walking through his opponents with ease and SD them like he did with his previous opponent who is 13-9. Losing 1 or 2 rounds to a C/D level fighter is not very good.

Toney didn't show anything, only that he knows how to pick opponents. This Rydell Booker should never be fighting on TV, anywhere. I can't believe he found 22 guys to beat.

Well - actually I can.

His last opponent, the one that "earned" him the IBA title fight was a split decision over a 13-7 Tipton Walker.

He also won a unanimous decision over John Basil Jackson who came in at 4-57-2.

He also won a unanimous decision over Donnie Penelton, who entered the fight at 13-138-4. I'm not joking. Penelton is still active, having lost one week ago to Mike Wood, who KO'd him, bringing his record to 13-158-5. He DOES have 5 KOs.

This Booker is the guy Tyson should have made his comeback against.

Let’s not forget Roy Bedwell, who fought Booker with a record of 15-67-1. He makes Anthony Prince (2-6) look like a good opponent. At least he knocked these guys out.

I wonder what people would say if Vitali fought Booker and had the same performance like Toney, winning in a decision. I wonder if people would say Vitali is doing well.
