James Toney really looks in shape.

[Gandalf]

He has clearly lost the weight and it is really quite astonishing. His speech also sounds somewhat improved too. Toney should never go north of 215 pounds ever again. I am hopeful that he might be ready to put on a show against Lebedev and have a final shot at getting himself in the mix.

[Gandalf]

Come on you JFAT alliance people, Toney has lost the weight. He is going to look better than in years. JFAT alliance for life!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't really tell if he looks in any better shape than the other week when the pic of him in a vest came out to be honest. Doesn't change the fact that if he can get down to 200lbs then I fully expect him to be something of a force again and I think he can become champ at CW.

He will beat Lebedev.

I think he looks really svelte, we haven't seem him like this in years. He has the hunger back and he is working hard for a reason. He knows it's his final big swing. Go James!

Honestly, it's 10 years too late. He's 43 now and he didn,t take care of his body as much as a Hopkins. It's a pity because the guy had a phenomenal raw talent, perhaps one of the mos gifted of his generation and though he didn't train well for a good par of his career, he did accomplish a lot being a slacker, which speaks volume. I am happy to see him back in shape and almost talking intelligently but I am not excited, it's quite good for the improvement but way too late.

I hope he does well. The CW division is very poor at the minute IMO. There are too many people like Chambers and Toney who have been fighting at HW when really they should have been down at 200. I know the big news is in the HW's but they are not naturally big enough IMO.

Marco Huck should not be a champion but he is and thoroughly deserves it. If Toney beats beats Lebedev which I think he will then he can take the division and put a bit of mainstream popularity into it. This move is good for Toney and Boxing. I would not normally support a fighter well into his 40's carrying on but with the state of the division and the fact that I probably regard Toney vs Tarver about the best fight that can be made at CW I am hoping for a big Toney win.

Toney in Russia and saying calm rational things.

Ugly Russian is getting a boxing lesson and maybe even TKO'd.

[brocktonblockbust]

he looks in shape like never before?? hahahaha Ive heard that 1 before.

thats what Cassius Clay said before he went in against the Easton Assassin.

[Mar]

Floyd Sr is in pretty good shape too. And he shouldn't be fighting either

[Spicoli]

Kinda like seeing your formely smoking College girlfriend squeeze back into her jeans years later. You still know what's there -now- once they come off.

Calm and rational things eh? Good times

Maybe, maybe not. Let's just see. Toney will either pass and amaze or else fall and burn. However, he is in shape and that is undeniable and he is speaking clear English and that is better than most english people.

What are the odds in this fight? With Tony in good shape, he could be a good bet.

How long has Tony been in good shape? I mean has he been around 200 for a while? It's tough for older fighters to move around too much in weight unless they are in shape 24/7 like Martinez or Bhop.

James Toney will always be a talented fighter, yesterday just watched the middleweight version drop a fighter with a body shot. However how has he managed to drop so much weight, it can’t just be the training. I think it will weaken him. I hope he wins but I think this effort is too little and too late.
