CHRIS BYRD calling TONEY A FAT BOY

[Shaolin Bushido]

If lookin like Holy gets you results like he's been gettin ... gimme a fat gut anyday!

Btw, can anyone post Holy's record as a heavy, wins, losses, ko's?

I bet it don't look so good. I know he had some quality wins but I really thik most of us considered the fact he was really a "little" guy fighting giants.

A lot of his record is lt hvy and mainly cruiser fights.

[kadyo's]

Not during his prime dude. He's still got the look but the skills that made him a HW champ has left him.

[Shaolin Bushido]

Overall, at heavy 19-8 with 12KO's including Rahman's ****ed up stoppage. 2 draws, I think.

I still quiver thinking of the possibilities if he and Moorer had stayed at lt hvy or cruiser.

[Shaolin Bushido]

Oh yeah, thanx kadyo. Preciate that.

[kadyo's]

No prob dude, boxrec is just a click away.

[Stickman]

that would be a good match-up

I agree. I'm not interested in seeing Toney get brutalized by Klitchko....other than just getting to see James "Loudmouth" Toney get rendered speechless for once in his career. He needs to be matched against fighters closer to his size, and I think Byrd would probably be his toughest fight in years. Toney has another year, maybe 2 left. He needs to spend that time wisely, by putting on great shows. I wouldn't mind seeing him get beaten ****** by one of the Lurch Brothers, but I'd much rather see him in an entertaining fight instead.

[PBDS]

Name me a current HW fighter who doesn't look fat. Well, holyfield looks fit but is way past his prime.

....Neither Klit brother ever ever looks fat. Named two for ya.

[BoxingPrincess]

CHRIS_BYRD: Yeah, I give him respect. He beat a real heavyweight. I ain't going to playahate, I'm going to congratulate and anticipate that Toney wants to fight. I'm waiting on the date

CHRIS_BYRD: The public is demanding me versus fat boy and I'm ready to give it to em

got it frmo **********

lol...Byrdy rhymes

toney is a fat boy

[Truth]

Byrd has almost gotten beat in his last couple of fights, so I wouldn't talk trash if I was him.

[Renegade]

Byrd has almost gotten beat in his last couple of fights, so I wouldn't talk trash if I was him.

No ****! If Toney could rid the heavys of Ruiz AND Byrd, he'd be my hero forever! Kinda like an old Western sheriff, cleanin up the Territory!
