He wasnt Meldrick Taylor but he wasnt that far away from it either. This dude shouldnt be allowed to fight anymore. He didnt talk like that early in his career. Why do you think he is getting lit up lately? This dude is finished and shouldnt be allowed in a ring again. He has takened too many shots to the dome

^eh,I didnt see the fight.But I get what youre saying about fighters like that though.I notice it more and more.

Am I the only one who thinks James Toney sounds terrible compared with his former self? Thats not just neckfat, people.

I noticed the exact same thing on Friday Night Fights. He was stuttering and had a hard time finding the words. I also thought that he looked nervous in his locker room tonight. This is a veteran who should not get nervous, unless something wrong is going on with him and he knows it.

His management is crazy if they put him in the ring again. They should be brought up on charges. The commision shouldnt even give guys a license that sound like that

I think I have but I didnt really pay much attention. Hes from another country though and he just sounds strange anyway. Plus Golota was never right in the head even when he was healthy. You can tell by the way he acts that he has problems

i hope manfredo doesent believe he beat a good opponent and try to step it up too fast, this guy was a punching bag

**Manfredo Jr** · 02-14-2006, 05:35 PM

i was on boxrec b4 the manfredo fight , looking at pembertons profile and he had a fight shcheduled a few months after the manfredo one , but when i look now its gone

Prior to his last fight, I wrote in a thread here on the forum that I would have easily picked Pemberton for a KO over Manfredo, saying Peter is easy to hit and Scott has the power. But, I quickly added that I opted not to pick Scott after seeing him on TV interviews. I said, I feared for Pemberton. I still do.If he's the one who insists he still could go up the ring competitively, he should be rescued from himself. If it's his management, then, they should be restrained from doing any more harm. His management's intentions may be good, but they should realize that, "The road to perdition is paved with good intentions."

Pemberton has the heart of Holyfield but the skills of Vanderpool. Nuff said!
