After Toney beat Barkley Toney said "Nigel Benn's Momma is the Loch Ness monster!" and Benn would of LOVED to of gone over there and fought Toney, but he wanted to KO Nunn first to make the Toney fight bigger.

Benn lived in LA in 1994, he went to the press conference of Toney's Prince Charles Williams fight but security had been informed not to let Benn in. Then, on Toney's first day in camp for Roy Jones he was greeted by none other than Nigel Benn who shouted across the gym "Oi! Get in the ring with me you fat B******, I'll get you in shape." But Toney refused and his entourage wouldn't let Benn near him. They rumourely had to be split apart at the Outlaw Boxing Club (Mickey Rourke's gym) once as well, sometime earlier in 1994.
