    I think Toney is going to get stopped for the first time ever.

    I just can't imagine how he's going to get down to that weight. If he does they need to check for those slimming pills!

    It all seems a bit unfeasible. Good luck to him though!

      He don't look a million miles from the weight right now & there is still 4-5 weeks left.

He has less than 5 weeks left to train but i think he will make the weight. What he needs is much sparring and padwork to get faster and shake off the ring rust.

        Honestly, that looked more like a publicity shoot than a training session. I didn't see any trainers, handlers, sparring partners or hangers on, just photographers and cameramen.

          Hopefully, you're right.

          Toney doesn't deserve another humiliation after that UFC debacle (even if I'm sure he was well compensated for it.)

            I guess he's about 210, 215 in that vid. He's got the time to take off the weight.

                      Lebedev isnt going to stop Toney. The question is are we going to get fair judges. Roy Jones was secponds away from the final bell and he is as chinny and washed up as they come. Toney will not only make the distance but he should be able to take a decision. Making Lebedev miss is his first job, then making him scared to throw. Once he is dictating the pace it could become embrarassing foir the Russian especially if he is expected another shopworn fighter.
