    I was hyped about this fight although it turned out to be a mismatch but I wanted Norris to shine.

    James Toney was suspended for 90 days and fined $10,000 after testing positive for steroids following his victory over John Ruiz.

    Toney explained he had gone on a cheeseburger binge, and one of them must've been tainted.

    Great day to look back at one of the best fighters hardly ever mentioned and a helluva fight. Both Raton Jimenez and Too sharp Johnson had championships and great runs in their futures, love seeing action at the Great Western Forum again.
