      Why doesn't Eddie Hearn contact Toney and offer the Dillian Whyte fight to him? I am pretty sure that James could use the extra $4 mil.

        I thought that fight was overturned and Toney was stripped for failing the drug test. Does it still count as an official title win?

          He was stripped of that title for failing his drug test.

          Toney was never a title holder at HW.

            Of course it doesn't.

            You can't win a title, fail the post fight drug test and get stripped and then still be considered a title holder.

            Go on the WBA's website and see if James Toney was ever a title holder. He wasn't.

              Yeah you're right. He owned a fringe IBA title at HW for what it's worth..... look man I like James and I'm trying to give him props here and you're ****ing it up. Haha

                He stopped a shot to **** version that any decent HW would have stopped.

                That's not an accomplishment. Holyfields W-L record in recent fights was terrible at that time and went on to be even worse.

                    Don't hate him just don't give credit for things that aren't there.

                    He stopped Holyfield. Great, a shot version that can't beat Larry Donald. Well done I guess

                      Impressive to me that he moves up from MW and James was out of shape and shot too. Not to many are cracking holyfields chin. But we can just agree to disagree. Respect
