Yeah and Batchhelder is L-UD, L-UD, W-TKO, L-TKO in his last 4 fights. Should be scintillating.............

You didn't know Toney was fighting? It's been all on the radio for weeks here, it's in San Jose. I would be there but I got finals tomorrow

Not on TV... how the mighty have fallen. He should at least be on ESPN or BAD or something. I find this somewhat sad, but I'm sure Toney will be back and fatter than ever, fighting on HBO at some point.

They rarely have fight cards on TV at the tank because almost every show of theres is on a Thursday. The last televised card there was Guinn - Thompson. Except that was on a Wednesday for Wednesday Night Fights. Before that it was Audley - Wiggins and Andre Ward's first fight in the Bay after the Olympics. The cards are always top notch though, almost all worthy of a TV slot if they weren't working around the Sharks, Sabercats and the 10 billion concerts they have there every year.

He'll still be fighting in front of like 4000, which is a very respectable crowd considering the Foxwoods get like half that.

Oh, I'm sure the crowd will be good, I was just surprised no network had picked it up... Is it available over the net? I'm not a huge Toney fan, but he's one of the sports bigger names, or at least he used to be.

Good for James Toney. He will not lose tomorrow!

It will be televised. I'm sure if nobody buys the rights MSG will pay like £100 for the right to screen it and send the Colonel down to report it for us.

They fucking better do, I mean even the most inept of broadcasting mangers must know that James Toney is one of the most popular heavyweights out there
