Rahman-Toney result changed!
The result of the July 16 James Toney vs. Hasim Rahman bout at the Pechanga Resort in Temecula, California, has been changed following an appeal by the Rahman camp. Originally ruled a technical knockout win for Toney, the California State Athletic Commission has now changed the result of the bout to a no-decision. Armando Garcia, Executive Director of the California State Athletic Commission, said ".....I have reviewed (Rahman's) appeal and have determined that the wrong decision was rendered on the night of the event. Therefore, the bout will be ruled a No Decision." Bob Arum of Top Rank called it a "true and just result. I want to commend the California Commission and particuarly its Executive Director, Armando Garcia, for handling this situation so expeditiously and for having the courage to reverse a decision made the night of the fight." Rahman said "....I am gratified. It is the right thing to do and I appreciate Mr. Garcia's efforts."




Always said it would be, it was an awful refereeing mess, shame for Toney but in a way ok for both fighters. Rahman can still fight on, maybe David Haye, and Toney won a moral victory so in terms of future matchups as good as a win for him.

Glad to see the right decision was made in the end.
