Comments Thread For: James Toney-Denis Lebedev For The WBA Interim Crown?

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

According to former three division world champion James Toney (73-6-3, 44KOs), the November 4th showdown with Denis Lebedev (22-1, 17KOs) will have the WBA's interim-cruiserweight title up for grabs. The fight takes place at the Khodynka Ice Palace, Moscow, Russia. The interim-title of the WBA recently became vacant. A few weeks ago, Yoan Pablo Hernandez vacated the title prior to his controversial win over Steve Cunningham for the IBF's version of the belt.

Guillermo Jones, WBA Cruiserweight champion, is scheduled to defend on November 5th at the Hard Rock in Hollywood, FL.

I guess we need an interim champion for those 24 hours between bouts?

I have no respect for Lebedev at all. First Roy Jones Jr, now Toney ... who's next? Jones Jr again. The guy is a joke. It's official, Sven Ottke has a rightful successor.

lol he's still young. . . also he fought Huck, one of the best fighters in the division and got robbed. . . he's just trying to make some loot and bring some american legends to russia for entertainment and name value (and get his name out there in the process). . . it's a GENIUS promotional move. . .

i think his handlers have everything to do it with - promotional tactic like i said - they are paying his bills, so he'll fight who they pay him the most to fight. . . after toney, he will be A LOT more popular in Russia, and thus will have power at the bargaining table to BRING FIGHTS TO RUSSIA, so he won't get JOBBED again. . . GENIUS!
