In this weeks BN Jim Brady wrote that James Toney was Sam Langford reincarnated.

Where does he get his reason for this from.

Maybe Toney resembles Langford looks wise, maybe because he fought between the weights, but style in and outside the ring they are miles apart.

Now Toney has took to fighting with the big boys he isn`t quite so `light out`.
A crap comparison.

The blind version of Langford in the 20s would beat Toney . . . .

Toney has not been a terror like Langford was since his middleweight days.
And could Toney ever be compared to Langford in the punching division.
Langford was a real threat to every fighter about that time.

sam was one of the all time greats. born in nova scotia. canada. fought a lot of fights blind and still won. i like toney but he would be a sparing mate at best*
