Toney gets the SD.

I havent seen the fight, but from what Ive been hearing while trawling the forums is that Toney looked far from impressive. Once a Toney fan, always a Toney fan, but his time may well be done.

I will need to watch it myself tomorrow when I find a copy of it, but its made me a bit depressed.

Carrying over The Showtime card in here ??Yuri Foreman starting...get the pillows.Love the secret Santa

I'm as big a Toney fan as any on here but I've thought he should retire for a while, it wasn't even what he did last time, Rahman just looked horrific.

I missed this by the way, but it doesn't surprise me to hear it was close, maybe controversial.

Yuri Forman has mass movement and is busy....butt a puuuuuure technicaljab boxer.He is shutting Moore out.Mosy excitement is the ring card girls dressed as santas helpers.

Holt-Hopkins could be interesting, could be an absolute snoozer, not sure.

All three commentators had it significantly in favor of Oquendo, judges had it split decision.

Its just starting now

Demetrius is a Hopkins only in name .Holt is playing the aggressor and pretty sharp.

I kind of missed the first, Holt looked more assured if anything

Maybe giving Holt a bit too much credit for the second, didn't seem like he did a whole lot. Neither really did Hopkins I guess.

Big head but.Bradlley meets the winner.He and Holt would be very nice.Holt looks strong, in body and punches but keep waiting for a straight right from Lil Hopkins to sneak in......and waiting

Hopkins not throwing enough Holt stealing the rounds.
