    Dude.....this "Scoring a T.K.O." is misused. You saw the fight....and it was not stopped because Wlad was hurt. It was stopped because he was fatigued, and Sdunek stopped it because Wlad looked like was going to die from exhaustion.

        It happens bro. That's why they say the fight can change with just one punch no matter who you fight.

          Yeah I know it happens. But it was more like Wlad changing the fight with his own punches.

            If you can absorb his punches you can take him down in the later rounds, he has been exposed twice already. With Peter he just fell down with every big punch. Wlad is not a great HW, he is ok, but not great.

              2 times, the shots were illegal rabbit punches.

              The third was a push when he was off balance.

                I dont want to hear rabbit punching, Wlad kept turning around with Peter punching. The ref will never call rabbit punch if you turn your back.

                    Amen to that.. putting the lights out in 2 weeks.

                      Well, define "full credit." Will that make him the best HW out there? No. Will it be his most impressive win to date and move him up in the rankings? Probably, if the win is convincing, which I expect it to be.

                      You can bet your ass that everyone would be singing a different tune had Vitali thrashed Rachman, which I feel he obviously would have without the injuries. But Toney has always been very smart at picking his fights and hasn't put himself in any kind of risk situation. He's not only a veteran master of boxing inside the ring, but he's become just as good outside the ring. He's not going to put himself into real risk with someone who might be able to match his boxing skills (Byrd) or someone who may be just too big and have too good of a jab for him (Wlad) until it's a unification mega-payday PPV. Toney is a very smart guy and has engineered this comeback beautifully, don't be fooled by his ignorant, thug speech and pimped-out image. That's all an act.
