    Default James Toney weighs in at 248

    I guess I am realizing that Toney just doesn't care enough anymore. 248 is just an insult to anyone who is paying to watch him fight. There is just no excuse for it. He can make 200 for his last fight then at least come in at 225 for this one. I am disappointed with him. I think he will beat Gunn easily, but he is going to look horrid and I can see it going the distance.

    Oh well. I guess Toney has no intention of trying to dazzle and bring on a bigger fight. Maybe he realises this is his lot. 248. The man is tiny. What kind of working out has he been doing to weigh this much?

    I dont think Tony should be alloud to fight at that weight. Pro boxing needs to put rules in place to stop guys who are 5/10 fighting at 248 pounds... It just turns the sport into a laughing stock.

    It is hard for me to say James Toney is lazy: you can't develope the type of skills he has and be lazy. So I've decided he is either mentally ill or stupid.

    It's shocking isn't it. He weighed something like this against that other bum and then decided he was 'rededicating' himself. Lebedev flop at 200 and now back to the beached whale look.

    It's almost like Toney is trying to alienate even his diehard followers. Get in shape you fat fuck. I shouldn't say that, he will be calling me out next.

    Maybe Toneys defense wasn't all that great after all. Clearly he's taken some permanent hurt to think his fans still give two shits.

    Toney does not care about getting in shape, why should you care if he wins? He is long past it his boxing skill can only take you so far.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Actually what Toney is doing is picking up a few final paydays, he can probably still pick up a couple $100,000 for his shit fights, like the one against Lebedev, et al.

    I mean when you think about it, WTF is James going to do after boxing, he slurs his words too bad to do announcing and becoming rocket scientist is out of the question.

    I've ALWAYS severely disliked James Toney, and every pound he puts on just reinforces the dislike.

    Toney is the kind of fighter that thinks "old school" fighters only sparred and that it's all he needs to mess with. So any weight he gained while he was injured he just kept it on and said "ah ill just spar this training camp" and that's all he did, he sparred and he lost no weight. The funny thing is he lost all that weight because he was anticipating an MMA fight with Ken Shamrock and he decided to keep it that way cause he felt good when he signed the fight. But now coming off injury it appears he is back to the same "all i need to do is spar" routine for boxing. Seems he takes MMA more serious than Boxing nowadays, isn't that amazing?

    Didn't Toney lose his MMA debut?

    It's such a shame to see Tony keep on fighting. He was so damn good.

    Fuck me! How does he manage to put on that much weight in just a few months! Its like hes purposefully tried to get fat!

    I dissagree about him still winning. He hasnt got a big punch and will tire very early. He couldnt hurt Damon Reed that a cruiser Herbie Hide splattered in a round. Its going to be utter shite! Even if you are a greedy cunt, while in training you shouldnt get that fat so I have a hard time believing hes done any at all!

    It's a shame really.

    I don't understand what sort of training he does and what his diet is to hold on to all that weight.
