      Hes lost like most PR fighters, Daneil Seda is also lost in lala land, while Calderon steeps into his 30's with only 20 something fights.

        Still, Oquendo is lost, maybe losing to Ruiz, and getting robbed by Bryd affected his mental.

          Didn't Oquendo leave Don King just now and sign with a new promoter? I remember he was in the crowd at Brewster vs. Golota and then a couple days later I saw that he had signed with a promotion company and I thought "hey -wasn't he just ringside at a DKP event?"

            Also to place it on the same night as Jones comeback is ridiculous and will flop on its ass, if Showtime really wanted to make a mark they would add it to the October 8th ppv since Toney isnt fighting a top 10 fighter.
            Very well agreed...but at least it will keep him active

              Dont know, but it says his birthday is 1973-04-01 , that means he is 35 or something, he better get back quick! Come back mother****er!

                Fres Oquendo also beat Byrd in the fight I saw, the refs were asleep on the fight. Oquendo should fight Brewster or Byrd and I would say he would likely be favorite, my opinion. Others may choose to disagree

                  Ruiz won his title in 2000, Oquendo didnt fight Byrd until 2003.

                  Oquendo signed with Dibella, just to give you guys the heads up.

                    James should fight a real heavyweight like Byrd, Ruiz or Peter.

                      I've seen two posts so far that look to be critisizing Toney for not fighting a top ten fighter.

                      Who's available?

                      Here's who's NOT available:

                      Byrd (will take his mandatory vs TOS)
                      Ruiz (Toney can't fight him because of the WBA, and Ruiz is scared)
                      Both Klitschkos
                      Barrett and Rahman
                      Peter
                      Brewster and Luan Krasniqi (fighting eachother at the end of Sept)
                      McCline

                      The only note worthy fighters available are Brock and Johnson. Otherwise that makes almost the entire top 15 unavailable.

                      It's unfortunate, but not his fault. He wanted to fight Byrd, and since the IBF verdict, word is Byrd is more interested in Williamson (who he stands a much better chance agaisnt).

                      Personally I'd like to see him fight Kirk Johnson or even J C Gomez.
                      Why are BOTH Klitschko's out? Wlad hasn't signed to fight Peter yet, and if SP is holding out for $1 mill, it may not happen. Toney vs Wlad would be sweet!
