    They like to hide it, but it clearly showed that they are biased crew.

    Yes Toney did come out of shape, also his stamina wasn't really good, that is his own fault, but still both man landed around the same amount of punches & Toney landed the better shots. Just for that he deserved to win, but I really don't care if everyone will agree with HBO. That's just my opinion, I thought it was a close fight & if anyone that deserved the win was Toney.

      That cut was a direct result of a clash of heads. The bloody mouth I'll give to Toney but he was the one with a (punch induced) lump over his left right. He was the one breathing hard as early as the 4th, stumbling over himself in an effort to retreat to the ropes, and looking absolutely terrible in the last two rounds. You can see a fighter's condition by looking at his eyes and Toney was hurting by the end. More so than Rahman, that's for sure.

        Close fight but I only see two ways to score it. 115-113 Rahman or 114-114 even. No way Toney won and no way Rahman won by as wide a margin as Lederman had it. He gave one round, I think it was 6 or 7 to Rahman that Toney DESTROYED him in. Lederman sucks ass, but Toney ****** tonight.

          I felt that Rahman was dedicated enough to show up in shape, and I felt that he fought the fight like he wanted to win. Toney landed the cleaner shots, but I'm not sure I'd even call them more effective, as none of them ever really had any effect on Rahman whatsoever. Rahman appeared to be in control of his body the entire time, and wasn't throwing wild punches and stumbling around the ring. You can't just lay around while the other guy is pressing foreward, carrying the fight and throwing punches that are landing, and then hit him cleanly a few times and expect that to cancel out everything he's done the whole round.
          I keep hearing that they landed about the same amount of punches,
          but I don't see anybody pointing out that they only showed the totals, they didn't show a breakdown of how many were landed in each round by each fighter. That would obviously play a role in which rounds were won by each fighter. The totals may be very close but there were a few rounds where Toney threw almost nothing.

            I got a kick out of Lederman saying that you can't fool judges by losing your balance, like judges see everything lol
            Judges are some of the blindest MF out there sometimes lol

              From what I've seen, Rahman on his best day couldn't beat Toney on his worst day.

              If Toney was a bum, Rahman is dumb.

                Toney lost period. Don't make it hard to yourself folks. no matter how we argue, it's official. So chill out.

                Maybe now Toney will learn how to control his big mouth.
