Why do people hate James Toney?

[Void]

Im just curious, as I have tons of respect for the guy.

You're posts reek of idiocrisy (if that's a word). I haven't met many people that "hate" James Toney. Everyone I know really respects his talents, but of course you have to pollute this forum with your ****** threads that aren't thought out at all such as the "out of prime excuse". You've never been in the ring have you?

Tomorrow night, haters will say he beat a fat Rahman.

some people might hate his personality but there is no denying toney's skills, hes a future HOF'er gotta respect the man for his skills rather than the way he acts...

I hate him because he's a smartass, and he never conditions himself and it sickens me when fighters don't condition themselves properly.

And for the record, I don't deny his skills, I think he's a very talented Heavyweight fighter, sad for the division that a fat Middleweight can be one of the top dogs, but none the less. Good Heavyweight fighter, very talented in-fighter. Sharp defensive skills, Granite chin. Tough guy to beat.

cause he's ****y and what he says he actually backs up

Bull****, and non sense.

Conditioning isn't physical appearnce.

At a career high 235lb last October, Toney threw an average of 80 punches per round, 100 per over the championship rounds in his fight with Guinn.

That's conditioning.

If looking like Michael Grant had anything to do with boxing, he'd have been a great fighter.

You're letting appearences fool you.

Because James is a winner. Losers hate winners.

Because He Talks A Good Game And Backs It Up. People Only Wanna See A Talker Get Shut Up
