I am all for people not paying taxes as a political stand and clearly Toney is doing just that. In all seriousness, for me it is all about Toney's style and history. Just a very nice style to watch and so many great fights on that resume.
It was just a shame that the ego finally became too much and he really did lose control and is thus where he is now as a travelling fighter and who really should be a retired HW champ at this stage.
Toney has to make money and nobody will go near him. Adamek should really have happened and I am quite angry that it didn't. If Toney lost then his career was done for good, but instead we get middling fights like this and more time wasted. Let the man have a shot at someone and see if he can back it up.
The last 5 years has been a bit of a farce, but no more than that of David Haye who gets a fight with anyone when the yearly fight itch comes around. Toney was on to fight Thompson, he was calling out Fury, Adamek, the Klits, Haye. Nothing ever happens except more middling about. He busts up Rahman and Rahman gets his shot, Toney never gets a mention. Peter has fought both Klits and Toney beat Peter (don't give me that scorecard bollocks!). Nothing.
It is a whole crock of shit. People bitch about James Toney, but the man is great. Give me a million Toney's over your Haye's and Fury's of this world and he would still beat both with both hands tied behind his back.
Pepper Roach says that Toney used to rough up the bitchko sisters in sparring and pat their asses after which explains why they always duck him..
Fuck the bitchsko sisters. They are boring.
Are the Klitschko's still ducking Toney after his latest stellar performance against the incredible Lucas Browne?
I think Miles finally got off that empty train.
About time, too. I don't get any pleasure watching a once great fighter being knocked around the ring by somebody he probably wouldn't have used as a sparring partner a few years ago.
I don't understand why anyone would want to watch either. Toney is a traveling sideshow, with a pathetic resemblance to what he once was.
Here it is if anyone wants to watch it. I've watched a couple rounds and Toney can still slip by and large. He's just soooo fucking fat and noticeably much slower than he used to be, even at heavyweight. He loads up on the right hand counters, but misses and falls down frequently.
"You knocked him down...now how bout you try knockin me down ?"
