    With the exception of the Tyson fight James Buster Douglas was also very lazy.

      I give Toney a pass because in his prime at least he got in shape!

        rios and broner?

        both are reported to be very hard workers, man. they used to kill themselves to make 135, and 130 in broner's case. that's hard, hard work.



        toney is a great shout. other than his prime at middleweight [where he used to have to starve himself,] he had periods where he hardly trained.

        later in his career, he ate some BURGER KING!

          this is a very good one.

          douglas had a huge reach, big time jab, and he could punch. he could have been a contender!

                  Toney though, he sparred all the time, so he trained all the time as far as keeping his skills up. What I heard is he didnt like running/cardio and relied on sparring for that. He didnt have stamina problems in the ring, he was just a fat ass. He sparred too much though and is punk drunk as a result, so its a bad idea to use sparring for fitness.

                  We could apply this to Foreman as well If so.
                  Foreman worked his ass off in his comeback and its not like it happened overnight. He went from fighting tomatoe cans all the way to chasing and acquiring the belt over the course of like 6 years. Even if he never got the belt, he still would have went 12 rounds with the likes of morrison, holyfield and moorer. His diet was probably bad but he changed his style and everything to make it work.

                      His name is Odlanier Solís, I wholeheartedly agree with you.
