Well that's a big possibilty friend. This fight can go both ways. If Rahman plays it right in the early rounds he'll put Toney's back against the wall and get the victory. There's alot more chance that Rahman will tire out earllier than Toney so he's got to do his thing in the early rounds.Comment

Toney is much nastier and hateful than Tyson ever was. Tyson on his worst days would still help his opponent up off the canvas and behave like a respectful and decent human being when the fighting was over. Toney has no such class.
True Toney is the most skillful heavyweight out there, and is P4P one of the best currently active boxers. He'll be a shoe in for the hall of fame. These are all facts. However, he has no respect for his fellow competitors and so I will give him none.Comment

He bit a piece of Holyfield's ear off, and spit it out. He talks about sodamizing his opponents and their families, and has sucker punched and bitten his opponents at press conferences.
Come on.
Toney can appear disrespectful of oppoents at times, but a lot of it is for show. Anyone who's been around him for extended periods of times talks about how warm and approchable he is when all the cameras are off.
In a sport where everyone is longing to see violence in the ring it's really ironic to see someone complaining about some harsh words.

Originally posted by boxing2005You are right except about one thing: Toney weighed in so high I don't know if he'll be able to counter-punch for 12 rounds.
He's 237.
Vs Guinn, he was 235 and was throwing on average 80 punches a round through the championship rounds.Comment

Originally posted by leffand how many punches do you imagine toney throwing if he trimmed down to 225?
He spars 12 - 15 rounds and switches out partners to remain with a fresh guy throwing at him.
If he's 235 and throwing 80 punches a round in rounds 9 - 12, how many more do you think he needs to throw?
That's wayyy above Heavyweight average, especially for late in the fight.Comment

Originally posted by Kid AchillesRahman looks like a powerful bull, Toney some bald cornerman with a gut. Maybe even the guy who carries the spit bucket.
Still have to favor Toney but he doesn't bear a passing resemblance to an athlete. The only definition on his body is the six pack of oscar mayer weiners on the back of his neck.
Seriously, the lack of pride he takes in his health and fitness is an embarrassment to his sport. Garbage in, garbage out, as it is often said. An athlete cannot succeed forever eating and abusing his body like Toney does.
If there's any justice in the world, Rahman knocks him out in the name of work ethic and for the good of boxing. Toney is a nasty, hateful guy who disrespects everyone in the sport, including himself, with the lousy shape he's showed up in.
I could care less about disrespecting Toney because he shows no respect for anyone else on the planet. A man like that is undeserving of honor and is owed nothing by anyone.
If Toney is interested in getting in shape and giving the sport his all, than good for him. If he can learn some humility and respect for others, I am all ready to be a fan. The way he is now though, and at 37 years old he probably won't change, **** him.Comment
