      I'm not saying Toney sucks! He is extremely talented and the fact that with his small size, he can dominate most in the division, really compliments his skills.

      My point was to answer the title of this thread: "James Toney will Save Heavyweight Division!" He is pretty far on all the rankings and given his age and how fast he gains weight, really does not work well for him.

      He will retire long before he gets a chance to "Save the division"
      While guys like Peter, Klitschko who have the shot. Yet; Peter is lacking skill, Klitschko lacks confidence)

        I hear you, but I think Toney has a chance to become champion in the next year or two.

          Even if Toney is to fight all of the title holders in a row, who said it can be arranged? There are too many factors, e.g. other Title Holders' schedule, mandatory defenses, promotional B.S. etc..

          What are the chances that Toney will get a title shot and then 3 title unification shots in the next few years? It simply won't happen.

            If that tournament comes off, there's a very good chance it could happen.

            It's funny how much this upsets you.

            Maybe Toney could fight one fringe contender a year, and then retire. That would seem the best thing he could do to endear you to him...

                It's been that way since Lennox retired.

                    Toney has skills, but he doesnt have the size and power to rule the heavyweight division.

                      I don't. He can become a paper champ but once he fights the big boys He's as good as done.
