Bunce is full of shit! If he was sat next to you at a bar and started talking boxing like that, youd grab your glass turn away and walk to a table to sit and drink on your own rather than listen to the pissed twat at the bar!
I just watch the replay of the fight and I do thonk it would have been a whole different fight had Toney not got injured. He would have been rusty anyway and I reckon come the 4th or 5 th round he would have been getting in to his stride, much like the Jirov fight. Even the Holyfield fight, Toney was getting bullied in the first few rounds until he found a rythm. Its such a shame because it all sounds like bullshit and sour grapes but if he can keep himself in good shape now and get a warm up and then a contender I could see himself giving a far better acount of himself. It was a combination of being so inactive for so long and fighting a southpaw, having to reach round with the right.
