Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Does this change what you think will happen in the fight???
I know it's spot on what I said "James won't look fit but he'll fight fit"...Toney is 4 pounds lighter and Sam is HEAVY too heavy in my opinion he'll be slower and Toney will counter punch the hell out of him

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
So no one cares about the weights for the big fight???

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
That's pretty close to what I was expecting...atleast on Peter's part. I was expecting 255ish to 256ish...so 257 aint a shocker to Wack.
233 is...I guess good...for Toney. ;)

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!

i had toney by ud in the beginning.
now, im taking toney by tko

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Wow, that upsets me that Peter is coming in even heavier...
Toney isn't at his ideal weight either, but this is sad to say its a good start.
I still see Peter winning.
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
I believe everyone will want this fight to be over by the 5th when Sam has run out of gas to sustain an attack for the majority of a round.
Toney by TKO??? You're crazy you don't remember Wlad nailing him repeatedly and him only starting to feel the punches at the end of the fight???
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Wish Peter was a little lighter, maybe 5 lbs or so but Toney is still to heavy. However....I think I'm picking Toney UD. Which is shocking since I'm a BIG Sam Peter fan but this is the one guy in the division who I really didn't want to see him face.

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
If I was a Sam Peter fan (and I most definantly am NOT) I would want Oleg Maskaev or Nicolay Valuev they are TAILOR MADE for Sam's style.
Valuev is 7'0 325...how hard is it to hit him???
Maskaev is old, weary from all those fights, his chin ain't spectacular and he likes to brawl
Calvin Brock is another one too...he fights down to your level and never up to your level. VS Zuri Lawrence he stood toe to toe with him and did nothing for 6 rounds

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
...I would say fight Audley Harrison but what good would that do???

Yup. It all comes down to hunger imo. I don't know if he is as hungry as he was against Klitschko.

wlad was popping him pretty good, but at least peter was catching him with some good shots as well.
i think that peter is going to have a much harder time catching toney, and when peter misses toneys gonna catch him, flush..............almost every time
tko by the ref stopping the fight................its gonna be too one sided imo

WOO SHAKE THEM TITTIES!!!
Oh that's James Toney....EEEEEEWWWWWWW GROSS

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
hahahaha big size difference in that bottom photo....
now if Peter can just get one clean shot of to Toneys chin in rd 4 i'll be a happy man ;)
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Yep, Toney is still way too heavy. He isnt in good condition at all. If he can make it through the first 6 then he will steal a decision though as Peter will fade down the stretch and Toney's countering will become more effective....
Peter is mental for coming in so plump, if he doesnt get it done early then he is gonna be in for a frustrating evening....
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Man both guys should have come in lighter! I think Peters gonna pay the most for it though. With alll those punches he's gonna be swinging & missing he'll tire fast. Toney picks him apart in the later rounds!!!

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
what does peter usually weigh? he doesn't look any bigger than usual to me. he's a huge guy. huge frame. unlike toney, who has a middleweight frame with a ton of fat strapped to it. toney's still about 20 pounds heavier than ideal. peter's maybe 5-10 heavier than ideal.
i still pick toney UD, because I don't think Peter can hit him even when he's this fat. if toney tires out to early he just might get into trouble though. Sam hits hard enough that he doesn't actually have to hit someone flush to KO them with one puch.

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Toney is the same weight he was for the Ruiz fight, this is a good weight for him if he can keep consistantly going down.

I think he's at his best about 247 - 250. Although he was 243 for Klitschko & Sykes. His last fight with Long he came in at about 256. I'm sticking with Toney as my pick though!

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
peter is going to run out of gas after 6 rounds and despite toneys looks i think he'll be in much better shape than the rahman fight,ill take toney to win.
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
i watched rahman n toney fight a cuple of days ago. If that is a slow lethargic toney then i cant wait to see him tomorrow. In that fight i noticed he was quite slow on his feet and tired in the later rounds but the way he picked his punches was wicked. he rocked rahman with left hooks and over hand rights. the sharpness of the punches was amazing.
now that was when toney had a flu. Tomorrow if he is 100% then peters is in trouble. i thought peters was slow at 243, at 257, this is gonna be a HW ,match of toney vs Barkley.

Toney & his camp also used the excuse that he had been smoking too many of the brand of cigars he was smoking too.
Let's hope he's smoked about 50 more than he did the last time.

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
He looks slightly leaner than the last time he was 233... still to heavy mind.
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Its crazy how much 4 pounds makes a differance. if I remember right Toney came in at 237 against rahman and now he's 233. To me he looks like he's in a little better shape then he was for Rahman. I just hope its true. I really want Toney to beat Peters ars. If Toney can gets hit flush from Peter and it doesnt phase him then that should answer the questions if Toney can handle a shot from the Heavies because Peters the biggest puncher in the HW division right now. Man this is the first time in awhile I've been excited to see HW fight I hope its a good one. I'm still going with Toney by UD.

Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
i think peter is going t5o be too strong for toney, a former middleweight fighter
im saying peter by mid round ko
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Toney is showing signs of long term steroid abuse!!
-
Re: Peter 257 - Toney 233!
Toney's still way too big but I think this might be the best he's looked since Booker, definitely better than Guinn or Rahman. Its only 4 pounds but he looks more solid than he has lately.
I guess its just lowered expectations really.
