I hope the best for him. The win over Barkley made me a believer in James Toney. Iran got taken to school in that fight. It's a shame he only made 5 million in his career. A fighter will be lucky to take home 40% of that.

Re: Iran Barkley
Great idea for some rewatch material as we're still in a live fight drought. Barkley always comes off as just raw truth and down to earth, one of the foulest scowls the ring has seen. I have always loved the Van Horn fight. Iran was brought in as a near blind and recycled door mat and then proceeded to brutalize Van Horn in short order. Pillar to post. Still think he could have easily received the nod over Nunn who left the arena in need of fumigation. Hope he's found some happiness, the man has battled legends.

He did have a world class scowl. Almost Grand Ayatollah level.

He was definitely scary and I was scared he would batter James Toney.Originally Posted by Kirkland Laing
