Roy's athletic abilities and skills were freakish, and no one could match James Toney's abilities to fight off the ropes. It's as if Toney was perfectly engineered to box, fighting seemed so natural to him. I shouldn't have to get into specifics really.

Yeah maybe people shouldnt hold them in such high regard. I keep forgetting that jones was tested positive.

They cheated to gain an edge in a very violent sport, putting people's lives in danger.
As for Toney, they probably helped him make weight and did little else. He was never a power puncher and got by on skill.Last edited by res; 07-10-2012, 08:30 AM.
