    I am. I love James Toney's sills. I hope he has some left.

    After seeing Toney against Batchelder I can't say I'm anxious to see him in the ring again.

    It's no longer just about getting in shape for him.

    If he looks good in any way I'd be surprised.

    This fight seems like it's really about who will become a "name" American opponent for a better foreign heavyweight.

    Are you serious Cupey? I wouldn't even make a point to watch this garbage, and that's saying a lot for me.

    It's going to be awful.

    Ive always loved Toney as a fighter, one of my all time favourites, but Ive had enough of the fat lazy cunt (had enough of the entire division, tbh). Wont be watching.

    It's on FSN, so I'll probably still watch, or at least have my tv turned to the channel...unless they're both blimps at the weigh-in.

    Toney looked so terrible in that last fight in San Jose. That was one of the worst fights I've ever seen.

    Toney is prone to be lazy but he looked lazy and shot.

    Toney is one of my all time favorite fighters, but at this point I have NO interest in seeing him fight anybody, LEAST of all Rachman again.

    I can't understand Bob Arum

    He has a stable of Pacquiao, Pavlik, Cotto, and Lopez. Yet he continues to promote Rahman like it's worth it.

    It's bad enought to wanna promote any heavyweight these days. But ARum keeps promoting this bum.

    I hope Rahman busts that back, and puts Toney in the hospital again, it's the ultimate justice for boxing fans who resent that illegal shoulder roll shit :bears:.

    Calzaghe could do it,.. but them heavyweight Euro fags have just got to make it worth his while, but as usual I expect those German promoters to reject and protect.

    I honestly think the time has come for commissions to ban any fighter with >10% body fat from stepping in the ring. It's an insult to the paying public and to the sport itself.

    Head of the Abdulaev bandwagon-> Cotto stops him
    Head of the Tszyu bandwagon-> Hatton wrassles him and wrassles his belt from him.
    Head of the Margarito bandwagon-> Marge gets beaten by Paul Williams

    Dont curse Calzaghe :bangh:

    Just about every fighter gets beat, all I was saying is that, Calzaghe might be that very lower division fighter who jumps up in weight and clears out the division, because Europeans cant fight, they suck.
