    3 - Who has Toney beat at HW?
    Holyfield, who is 2-5-2 in the last 5 years of his career? (Mind you Toney fought him second to last)
    Booker? Who has he ever beat?
    or Guinn, who is 1-3-1 in his last fights?

    And do I even need to mention the fact that he got caught CHEATING only 7 month ago?

    Just stop being a hypocrite


    LOL, it's funny that you'd call me a hypocrit when you just tried to explain why Maskiev deserves a title shot, but Toney doesn't.

    Maybe you missed it the 1st time, or just don't like having it pointed out that your logic is weak.

    Right after suggesting Maskiev fight for Rahman's title (not sure what's funnier, suggesting Maskiev deserves a title shot or not realizing the irony in the fact Rahman was in line for a title this year),

    you suggest Toney doesn't deserve to fight for another title?

    No one around at the moment of the top 5 or 6 rated fighters 'deserves' a title shot.

    At this point, the only thing that's relevent is who the fans want to see.

    When you add that to the fact that Rahman would stand to gain much more money fighting Toney than Maskiev, it's a curious move considering he's bankrupt and stands a good chance of losing to whoever it is he fights next.

      Maskaev is ranked as a #1 contender by the WBC

      Need I say more, or maybe you just missed it the first time I said it?

        The fact you'd even suggest any of the ABC organizations matter at this point at Heavyweight is a laugh in itself. There is no mandatory right now, and, for the 3rd time, I'm not sure wheather there's more irony or humor in your assertion that Toney hasn't earned a shot at the WBC title, but Maskaev has. He's a joke, and a meaningless fight.

          I was saying that at this point of Rahman's career, a fight with Maskaev would make more sense for him as he stands a better chance of defeating Maskaev and can avenge his humiliating KO

            And in doing so you asked what Toney had done to deserve the shot, but made no mention of Maskaev's BS ranking.

            On top of that, it does not make more sense for Raham to take a lesser payday when he stands a very good chance of losing to both of them.

            The Toney fight is much more marketable PPV, and he'd receive 75% of the Purse. In light of his debts, it makes a lot more sense to get paid while he still can.


            But really, it's all for not because he's announced he's a free agent after he'd signed a multi fight deal with King.

            There will be law suits and settlements before this is all over.
