    every one tlks about how great toney is, but to me he's a big waste of talent. he could have been bigger than floyd, bigger than manny, bigger than hopkins and bigger than rjj. but he didnt keep it together.



    haha .if he wasnt in shape and had no dedication how come
    he beat so many heavyweights not to mention all the
    hofers in the lighter divisoins

    whats so great about mayweather ? who has he beat ?
    corrales ? ... thats it ... he has no resume ...

    zab judah ? a guy kostya blew out in 2 rounds ...
    im not gonna argue about who each fighter beat. toney was a hw. but really the hw division was garbage by the time he got there and he never fought either of the top two guys. i dnt even really count his time at hw as a huge part of his legacy. toney lost to ppl he had no buisness losin to because he lacked dedication. its true, i followed the guys whole career, since the nunn fight(which he was losing on the cards be4 he sparked him). toney had what it took, but he lacked self control.

          people forget he was over 200 in school playing football.he's actually a natural heavyweight who dropped down to 160 to begin boxing...he should have started or moved to heavyweight alot sooner.he's naturally over 200 pounds.he's not a mw moving up,he actually was a heavyweight trying to be a mw & he had 44 wins before he lost.that's quite the accomplishment.

              no way maywether can be the best of the era. the guy is avoiding little manny pacquiao.

              toney stepped into the ring twice with a guy that knocked out lennox lewis

              toney ducks no man

              rahman did this to lewis



              but toney still took him on twice

                      You can't tell me his weight gain isn't linked to steroids, just look at his body compared to the middleweight days no one puts on that much muscle.
