    And I think he'll get a draw, or eek out a really close decision against Ruiz.

        I think that Ruiz gets frustrated and dq's himself in 7 rounds. Warning for holdings in rounds 1,2,3 One point for holding round 4. One point for hitting low round 5. DQ round 7 for holding/hitting off the break.

          When I turned on the television the other night to tune into the Toney/Booker fight, I was pretty confident that Toney would would hand this guy his first loss. Well, I saw exactly that, and more.....

          James Toney beat this guy like a rag doll for 12 rounds.. The truth of the matter is that this fight should have been stopped long before the final 12th round. Booker was even glancing at his corner with a look of desperation as if saying "My God, will somebody throw in the towell"???.... Booker just decided to take a knee and save his own hide.. I guess he figured if the Referee, and his own corner wouldn't do it, he would.

          Toney came out of his corner in each round like a caged animal let free. Toney looked in pretty darn good shape for Toney Standards as well.. He punished Booker with jabs, rights.. and a brilliant upper cut that found its mark with just about every attempt. When you looked into the corner of James Toney, it was like looking at a well oiled machine..

          Freddie Roach calmly sitting in front of Toney between each round giving advice, and some suggestions..and Toney just sort of relaxing on the stool listening... With the Roach, Toney connection, I see World Champion written all of it! Booker was just plain and simply out classed by Toney... I will say this however.. Booker showed me that he has a heart of a lion.. He at least tried his best.. he didn't go down in defeat fighting like someone just trying to survive.. he at least tried to throw punches to the best of his ability. But Toney was just too much for him.

          I look forward to Toney's next fights.. no matter who it may be, they better be ready.. James Toney to me, looks like a hungry animal on the prowl for prey...
          James Toney..in a class of his own ?????

          He's only in a class of his own at being a loud, arrogant, insuler, self-important, bull**** talking, ****head... LOL!...

          Being a loud shouting, arrogant, self-important, bull**** talking ****head... Doesn't make you any better at boxing.

          James Toney represents the WWF wrestling side of boxing, (I reckon most James Toney fans buy these crazy priced WWF wrestling PPV events!)... It's all about the shouting and play acting - which is what he does!

          He's a heavyweight that's only just inside the top 10 heavies in the World... So by that he's definatly not "James Toney..in a class of his own".

              I like Toney and he may not get exploited too bad againt Ruiz but he will suffer if he gets in with a talented big heavyweight with any kind of punch ... I know, I know, there's no one around who exactly fits that description.

              Just saying, if there were a Lennox Lewis around today ....

                  you speak as though Toney is not a skilled fighter himself. Toney is the best Skilled fighter in the HW div, Bryd is the only fighter who even comes close the the skill of toney. If he was to get in a fight with a talented HW then it would be a good fight in no way would he be domanated.
