    The key is to make Toney come to you. The guy is a counterpuncher with great reflexes and defensive skills. Power won't do you good when you can't hit him cleanly. Byrd will go on the defensive and force Toney to come to him, nullifying a lot of what makes Toney a great fighter.

      Byrd will need to bring a LOT to beat Toney. Don't forget how poor he's looked in the last year or so.

      Toney is not Oquendo.

      If Toney trains in between now and the time he fights Byrd, a sharp Toney is an even up fight for Byrd.

            Bryd has fear, I had fear and every fighter will come face to face with it. It how they handle it and what they do with it that makes a fighter a fighter. Did you say that you had boxed before?..............Rockin'

              Toney is a more skilled version of Brewster. I can't believe so many people are hyping him up after beating a chump like JOHN RUIZ. I can't wait until Toney puts his money where his mouth is and fights VK. His belt will be ****in owned.

                    A Tyson of the early 90's would have killed him. The Tyson of the year 2005 is used goods. Oh, lol............Rockin'

                      the discussion at first was in my mind very against klitschko. lewis obvoiusly is not friends with him. that writer went against him as well, n said that he beat no ones. klitschko can't seem to fight the tournament, since DKP is controlling the other 3 champs. DK hasn't presented a fight to him. VK offered the byrd one, but no reply from DK. same with wlad, no reply from DK. (or reply rejected... neway). DK was all talkin about his fighters blah blah blah.


                      Toney - ur with DK, so u can try to unify the division. go after byrd, only fighter that doesn't have a scheduled fight yet. (as far as champs, VK-Rahman, brewster - golata).

                      Actually King only has 2 heavyweight titles now because Toney is promoted by Goosen!
