He should stop now. Wonderful career, incredible rough talent but at 44 with some brain damage diagnosticated, it's more than time to call it a career and to stop before the punch that'll be too late.

Re: James Toney weighs in at 248
People that went to the fight have said that this guy Toney fought barely even fought. Terrible if true, all people are gonna look at it as false hope. Fact of the matter is Toney takes MMA more serious than boxing nowadays, that's saddening. He dropped to 200 pounds in anticipation of fighting Ken Shamrock in an MMA bout. Gets a boxing match and stays within the weight range. And then in preperation for his next boxing match..he gains nearly 50 pounds. ..

Re: James Toney weighs in at 248
Outrageous weight gain, 50 lbs in 5 months, but on the bright side Toney did stop the guy in 5 albeit cus Gunn broke his hand.
I thought this Gunn character would bring it to Toney from his background and tough talk before the fight.
Now Toney can fight Sherman "The Tank" Williams, not in a boxing match but in a hot dog eating contest.

Re: James Toney weighs in at 248
I do not understand the people that have said that fighting at Heavyweight was a farce or a huge mistake for Toney.
Toney was extremely competitive against Sam Peter (In fact I thought he beat him) and several other fights. Anyone else that is that competitive at HW would be considered a hopeful still.
The only mistake is that Toney has held on to the only thing he has known in his life for too long, which is boxing. If we all disliked boxers who held on for too long, we wouldn't have very many to look up to.
