James Toney is 217 pounds!

He looked labored breathing but he's still a fairly fast heavy.

Still I don't like the fact that he took a couple right hands from a dude wearing gym shorts.

Agreed...but would'nt you love to see him drop 20/30lbs & make for some real matches?


I know I would.


I just wonder if he's SKEERED of that kinda fight?


I mean...he's only taken on the lower tear heavies...not the big guns or the one's that'd be a real threat to him...ie : the Klits...not for lack of trying.

Hey to the Majz, amat, Johnny-KA, & oumer.
Good to see you yunginz again.
To all you bruvuhz from other muvuhs out there that I don't know...pleased to meetcha's!

I think he's done the cruiser thing before and the only smaller guys he'd be willing to fight are Hopkins or Roy.

Other than that he'd like to back his way into a HW title shot and really how hard is to get a shot these days? Not like Haye, Arreola, or Kevin Johnson (assuming he gets a shot) have had to walk through murderer's row to get one.

I can't believe I'm talking seriously about Toney again. On the record I still think he's done

Toney looked alright in that footagee. But then again who the fuck is Matt Greer? Greer looked like a tomato can and even he did seem to rock Toney a bit. Of course, Toney came back well there and was throwing a fair bit up until the stoppage. I don't think we can judge anything on this showing. Toney doesn't stop heavyweights, so I think this was clearly a reflection on the ability of Greer than anything else.

Toney needs to get in the ring again ASAP. There is no time to hang around nor risk him getting at the buffet table. He needs to go the Foreman route and stay very active until the opportunity comes along.

I also didn't like the fact that Toney was breathing so heavy in round two. His output was good, but it wasn't that strenuous a work out. He must stay busy as there are no more chances after this.

Toney did not look alright, he looked absolute shiit!!

He was fighting a bum but the only few punches the bum threw, Toney caught with his face, he cant get out the way of this level of opponent and he was also hurt a few times in the short time it lasted He is done!!

He also didnt look anywhere near as good a shape as he did for Holyfield, which makes me think he used some gear for that fight.

Saying he was "hurt a few times" is way over doing it but he didn't look that good.
