Toney-Booker On FSN Last Night

**Run** · 03-14-2005, 11:32 AM

Yeah. Toney looked unimpressive to say the least. I actually had Booker winning 4 or 5 rounds of that fight. Certainly Toney came on strong in the beginning and the end, but ate some punches in the process.

One thing also, is Toney likes to "Play Opossum"

he looks hurt on the ropes, but then counters with hard shots.
That being said: It is hard to tell if he is hurt in a fight. He looked hurt against Jirov, but I just dont know. He is kind of strange, James is. He looks like he wants to take a hot bath, or eat a sandwich during the fight occasionally. Its really odd.

Yeah, he does sometimes. In the Booker fight, he was riding the ropes, and looked hurt, but would deliver nice counters, and was shaking his head "no" that Bookers shots had no effect, he's hard to understand

IMO, the hardest boxer to read based on "Body Language".

Kostya Tszyu is a close second. He sometimes acts hurt, then starts trading. He is wierd as well. Except, Kostya retains that huge smile. Even when Phillips was pounding on him. He was smiling throughout the knockout.

Weird, I was just going to say him too. They are both crazy with the body language, I don't get either of them

I dont think he should play possum with Ruiz cause John wont hit him back to instigate anything. Hell just hug him to death

Rw/Knives you had Booker winning 4 or 5 rounds? HAHAHA

He won 1 round...if you're being charitable.

I know Booker is a tomato can, D level fighter, but Toney gave him the beating of his life.

Just to be realistic about the situation...

How could you even give Booker more than one round? Toney hurt his arm in the early part of the fight (which is why we havent seen him fighting) but he was landing flush all night, those Uppercuts were devastating Toney was just landing at WILL. In the words of Max Kellerman "MY GOD WHERE IS THE DEFENSE" is what I ask Booker. He looked in "awe" of Toneys skill to be able to land on him at any given time.

Anybody want to post that fight up for me...I never saw it.

I agree about the whole Toney thing...sometimes he looks hurt, but I guess that's just to lure the fighter in and make them through all they've got at him and then get messed up..

That is just plain hating on Booker OG.

he was busier than Toney for the most part. Toney had frequent periods of inactivity and looked mediocre.

mind you: I had Jirov ahead by 7 rounds to 5 at the end of their fight.
Toney is too hard to score. IMO.
