I had Toney winning, but it was far from decisive. He defintely landed the cleaner punches, but he had absolutely no effect on Peter. If the judges were scoring on effective aggression, I can see where they might have seen Toney as ineffective.
Regardless, the Melee at the Buffet, or as I prefer to call it, The Crisco Kid vs. The Pillsbury Homeboy, was a disappointing fight.
I think that Toney has proven that he can take a heavyweight's punch, though he has also proven that he can't phase one.
I feel sorry for Peter. I can see so much potential in that kid, but I have said before that he is being brought along too fast because the of his raw power and the lack of excitement in the heavyweight division. The problem is, he isn't being schooled in how to use it, or how to set it up. He may have a shot at being a champion, but he doesn't possess the skills to keep it long.Last edited by vB Martin; 09-03-2006, 05:27 AM.Comment

Jeez, I couldn't watch the fight as I'm living in London right now. I really REALLY have to get a view of this fight.
I started out thinking that all this shouting was just sour g****s but I'm going to have to check all this out.
Don't worry. If there really was a fix, major public commentators will talk a lot about this fight's scoring and if a fix was on, **** will start to fly.Comment

it takes a lot of care for a black man to get his hair to do that.
When I had a low cut I use to have them ****s and all I did was put hot water on my hair, dry it up, and pass this **** on it:
Please, stfu.
You don't know **** about what you're saying.Comment

2000 Olympian and NJ native Jerson Ravello also concurred with the points that Jack, and most objectives viewers of the fight reached:
I MUST SAY THAT BOXING IS BECOMING A JOKE, WELL SAYING IT'S BECOMEING IS A BIT LATE, BOXING IS A JOKE, THE FIGHT TONIGHT BETWEEN TONEY AND PETER, COME ON NOW, WHOEVER KNOWS ABOUT BOXING, AND I'M NOT TALKING ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHI THINK THEY KNOW BOXING JUST CUS THEY WATCH IT ONCE IN A WHILE, I'M TALKING ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE FORMER FIGHTERS, ACTIVE FIGHTERS, AND FANS WHO ARE REALLY INTO THE SPORT, THE ONES THAT TRY TO MAKE EVERY FIGHT AND NEVER MISS ONE ON TV, THE FIGHT TONIGHT WAS NOT A HARD FIGHT TO SCORE, TONEY LANDED THE MORE ACCURATE SHOTS THE WHOLE FIGHT, THE WAS TAGGING PETER WITH JABS THE WHOLE NIGHT, AND EVEN THOUGH PETER LANDED LOTS OF GOOD SHOTS, TONEY MADE HIM MISS WAY MORE THAN WHAT HE ACTUALLY LANDED, MY POINT IS THAT PETER WON IN MY EYES 4 ROUNDS THE MOST 5, NOW WITH THE POINT DEDUCTION, HOW CAN HE HAD WON BY THE RIDICULUS SCORE OF 116-111, WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE JUDGES SCORING THE FIGHT ON, ANYWAYS THAT JUST SHOWS THAT BOXING IS FULL OF ****, AND THIS IS COMING FROM A BOXER, THAT'S WHY I LET MY HANDS BE MY JUDGE SINCE I CAME BACK, AND THAT'S THE WAY ALL MY FIGHTS WILL BE.Comment
