Thread: Does anyone think Toney will show up in shape for Peter?

What do you think? I say he won't be in shape.

Yes he will, round is a shape

If he doesnt improve his condition then Peter has a solid chance of KO'ing Toney and I am a Toney fan....Toney is too old to be playing games with his body...it could catch up messily...

I guess I should have asked what kind of PHYSICAL shape he would be in LOL.
Have a CC on me.

He'll have some Double D's and a spare tire

Ok I could of done without that image so close to lunch.

I'd be very surprised if he came in under 220. I just don't have the faith in him that he'll take it seriously enough before training camp starts, cause you can only lose so much weight in camp. I'm hoping high 220's, low 230's, and really its kinda pathetic that him coming in at 229, 230 would make me think he was taking it more seriously, but at least it wouldn't be 238 or whatever he was the last couple fights.

Who cares, he'll lose anyway

I hope he will, but I seriously doubt it.

Well this fight will make or break me as a JT fan. I think he is an amazing boxer with all the skills i just get so frustrated when he obviously puts more effort into getting down to Burger King then the Gym.

Well Toney promised to be in shape for this fight that he'd get the weight down. But for Rahman he said he'd be in Iran Barkley shape, who knew he meant current Barkley

I think he will be in shape for this, (ie 225 or thereabouts).

Peter is probably the biggest puncher in boxing and Toney isn't going to want to take chances.

Am I the only person who feels Toney deserves credit for taking this fight?

I mean he's a natural middleweight and he's fighting a pretty ferocious puncher in Peter. It's not as if he needs the fight either, seeing as he could get the winner of Rahman/Maskaev.

Respect to the fat, mouthy one for taking this, and if he can win, without being floored 3 times like the chinny one it will be a great achievement.

CC bro I think the Rahman fight was a wake up call for James ,if he looks Piss poor in this fight it all but assures he is out of the picture for good as a major player in the heavyweight division..I am sure Freddy is telling James the same thing hopefuly it will get thru that skull of his though

Toney would get credit for this fight if Peter came back and knocked out Wlad.

Because people only picked Peter because they thought he'd get to the weak jaw of Wlad. But Toney has anything but a weak jaw and I don't see Peter knocking him out. Toney will win a decision but if he wants to make a statement he needs to drop Peter

well for toney 300 ibs is considered in shape
