James Toney Voted as WBC Mandatory

[.::|ULTIMATE|::.]

I don't know, that's the only good fight I heard of and it's only good because Toney is in it.

The IBF belt should be gettin interesting soon too.

Wlad is Ranked #1 and Brock is ranked #3.

Well yeah heard of but coming soon they should have some more like Wlad/Brewster if he has enuogh balls to get back in with Brewster and hope he does it will make him look better than going after a much easier target in Byrd......Peter should be ready to fight another top guy early next year after his tune up in Dec and Brock is exciting at times and I am looking for Audley Harrison to prove legit next year also so IMO I am feeling slightly better about the HWs even tho there seems to be no true dominent force it should be some close exciting fights.

wow to the guy who said vlad will beat toney thats insane. wlad has a glass jaw if you didnt notice. toney can brawl or box so whatever route wlad chooses hes screwed . if you think he can beat toney plese be honest and tell me how he will win. i am up for a serious discussion of this subject

I'm not the guy who said that, but I'll be happy enough to answer the question for you, plain and simple.

Same way he beat Byrd.

only in the don king-infested heavyweight division can someone who got stripped of their title for steroids get another shot almost automatically. further factual evidence for why most people dont care about heavyweights or boxing period anymore.

rahman is in trouble, toney is going to give him fits all night. BUT toney is going to get hit by a real heavy with pop, i want to see if toneys chin is a solid as everyone thinks, including myself.

If roy jones was able to knock toney down, rahman could probably do it too

Wlad vs. Byrd would be a one-sided fight IMO, Byrd would have slim to none chances of winning - he doesn't have a KO punch and cannot avoid Wlad's KO punches. Brock is nobody yet. Remember what everyone was yelling when Vitali wanted to fight Brock instead of "legitimate contender"?

Wlad will definitely go after Byrd and then MAYBE after Brewster. Who is Peter going to fight? Noone will fight him unless he becomes mandatory and it will take him some time. Brock hasn't shown anything exciting IMO, Harrison is not fighting anyone from top 20 yet, so too early to say. In short, nothing really exciting will happen any time soon. Tyson vs. Lewis was exciting, Lewis vs. VK was exciting, Hollyfield vs. Tyson was exciting. Today's bunch will make good fights but I won't be excited about them.

Wlad will definitely go after Byrd and then MAYBE after Brewster.

Why isn't he going after Brewster in the 1st place? It would be more money, and a chance to avenge his loss...

I see what you mean as far as marketablity goes but I mean some gritty good fights which I think and hope we may see soon......who knows I am just trying to be optimistic.

Bnono, whats your prediction for Toney's weight againt Rahman? I think he will come in at 225. He will be in shape for a fight that big.
