    Toney aint got much time left. Probably Povetkin.

I would really have liked to have seen the fight go on just to gauge where Toney is really at in terms of workrate and stamina and being able to consistently land telling blows without taking to many breathers.

    So where next for Toney? I would like to see him fighting soon. Time is limited and he has maybe 3 fights in him if he is to fight for another year or so. Toney isnt going to get a title shot based on 3 rounds with Rahman so its probably going to be another fight with someone ranked in the top 20. Danny Williams is hovering around there and Ive heard his name bandied about before. Would be an okay stay busy fight for Toney. Golota would be a funny matchup with Toney. Hilarious differences in size! Maybe even Maskaev?

    There are a few fighters he could target. What are your thoughts?
    Let this FAT and OVERRATED burger get to Europe and get some fights under his belt instead of fighting bums in America - the future of the division is in Europe, so let Toney fight here - Vladimir Virchis, Sultan Ibragimov, Alexander Dimitrenko and Serguei Lyakhovich would be good and level ups opponents for the fat guy.
    I think you overstepped the line by calling James Toney a burger....but otherwise some very interesting opponents I wouldnt mind seeing Toney face. I dont think James Toney can fly to Europe though...the plane would have serious issues taking off.

    It is great to see a fellow Lyakhovich fan, even if you are a fan just because you are a racist bastard. We need all the fans we can get.

    Toney should call out Haye and put the old fat man smack on him...while chugging down a box of fiddle-faddle. I honestly think Even an aged and xxx-L James Toney is too sound for him and draws him into the deep end.

    Yep, take Haye to school. It will be fun to see Haye toyed with by an old man again.

    Thompson had the power to hurt him . Do you think Toney has ? I know hes got the skills but not sure if he can knock Haye about .

    Haye shouldnt be going for Toney . Rahman would make him look better

    If Toney can knock out any heavyweight its Haye. I give him ample chance against a cruiserweight jumping up a division with a shady chin and questionable stamina.

    Im not interested in seeing Haye look good and thats why I would really like to see him try Toney for size. Toney is past his best, but even now can probably make Haye look very bad.

    A fight vs O'Neil Bell would be good for Toney

    I agree, but he should still fight David Haye next...

    How come ? Britain could have a new heavyweight to clean up on the world stage. Hes not exactly another Lewis but he could get some good wins in the current climate .

    I'm VERY interested in Haye doing well....up to a certain point. Then maybe one heavyweight could get the credit he deserves

    Im going to seem like a bit of a hater but there is just something about him that grates. Cocky and too full of himself. Toney is one of my favourite fighters in the history of the fight game. If Haye and Toney fought I could only hope for one result. Maybe Haye will do alright as a heavyweight but he hasnt proven anything until he fights someone in the top 6.

    No not at all. I feel the same. He is clearly arrogant and I was happy to see an honest pro like Thompson knock him out . I was also hoping Mormeck and Enzo would beat him but he is a heavyweight I think he stands a decent chance of putting tis country back on the map so petty hate can wait . I think his speed gives him a good shot at scoring some early wins so instead of hoping he loses, we cant actually get behind a Brit who is probably the best weve had since Sir Lennox.
