    I haven't watched that fight in a VERY long time. Simply unreal. Toney was masterful in setting up his punches and being in the right position to throw them.

      what the hell is wrong with people on this site?
      When people are still putting him on the same level as Roy Jones, considering Roy Jones beat the sh** out of him, he's overrated.

        Yah, Foreman's commentary is ridiculous.


        lol you can tell he identifies james with ali when he's fighting off the ropes and that he identified with barkley


        thats all i was thinking watching


        "you cant win a fight like that fighting off the ropes!"

              Masterful counter-punching and all around skill, too bad he let himself go.

                There is a huge story behind the fight with Jones. What you saw in the ring that night was not James at 100%. I was out of the same stable as James and I can tell you that James lost that fight before he even stepped into the ring. While James may not be as naturally gifted as Jones his skills are still on par, you just didn't see those skills that night...........Rockin'

                  Absolutely amazing...

                  A lot of people talk about how Toney sucks, and that he never did ****, Toney is one of the best of our era.

                  Insane skills and a defensive genius.

                  Thank you for putting this video up, that is what boxing is all about.

                    These skills are too subtle for the average knucklehead to appreciate but they are what true boxing is all about.

                    I find it interesting that both Toney and Floyd Mayweather Jr. use the same basic style but they each put their own personal stamp on it.

                      I was watching Toney-Nunn yesterday, and it was ridiculous how the commentators were seemingly oblivious to the way Toney was breaking Nunn down and setting him up for that knockout. I don't think they said anything positive until the knockout happened.
