Not Looking Good for James Toney Fans.

[mECHsLAVE]

THe fight with Jirov was actually pretty close to a draw. Without the KD then it's a draw, and I think Lederman had it a draw even with the KD. Very close fight. Jirov spent too much energy punching Toney's gloves, shoulders and arms- which is what Brooks was yelling for him to do- turns out it was bad advice. It won him some close rounds, by throwing alot of punches, being agressive and active, but it burnt him out for the championship rounds. So, no it wasn't a KO. Hehe. It was barely a win.

I don't really count the fight with Holy, bc that Holy didn't throw anything after round 1. He was just done. It was barely a fight- Larry Donald beat him the same way.

So yeah, I have my questions about Toney as a HW, and I think I'd favor Ruiz slightly. If he can make it a war. Ruiz is physically stronger than Toney and is usually successful at making it his type of fight. I just hope it's a good fight.

I didn't have the Jirov fight close to a draw. I thought it was a clear, decisive win for Toney. I had it 6-4-1 going into the 12th and then Toney dominated the 12th and KD'ed Jirov.

I have lost all respect for you because of your refusal to bet me Strum. you talk mad **** but you won't back it up even with fake points on the internet.

Toney can take all the **** he wants he backs it up. And Ruiz is to slow and is an easy target for Toney. As for Chin i doubt Ruiz can hurt Toney whos chin is one of the best ever period.

i think that if Ruiz can work his gameplan it will be a typical ruiz fight, but if James gets his gameplan working then i see a lopsided decision or a ko for him.
