Has anyone got the videos of Toneys and Ruiz's last fights ? If they have any chance I could purchase a copy off of someone ?

I woulder if Ruiz is under mutch mental pressure for this fight? Somewhere in the back of his mind he must be thinking "Oh my, I can't be seen to lose to another former Middleweight!".
Also Toney has double the reason to be motivated for this fight, firstly to achieve his goal of winning a major World title at Heavyweight and secondly to do a better job on Ruiz than his arch rival Roy Jones Jr did a few years ago.

I'm looking forward to this fight, even though it will inevitably be shite. You simply have to love Toney. His interview in BN was one of the funniest ever.
On MaxBoxing they have a video of him slating a load of journalists. He said he wasn't going to answer any questions by people who hadn't fought. He suggested parking some cars outside to form a ring, then the journalists could all box off. The winner would get their questions answered.
I was fornicating crying by the end of his rant!
There is something about Ruiz you simply have to admire though...I'm just not sure what it is!

I think for all his shortcomings Ruiz is a down to earth good natured guy and is at least is willing to take anyone on. But I can really see Toney driving him and Stoney crazy on Tuesday's Press Conference
That alone should be off the charts and should hype the fight no end

Dear Mr McNeilly,
Thank you very much indeed for your link I contacted Red Dragon and he is going to send me dvds in the post on Tuesday. His service is superb, he has an excellent selection of fights and his prices are extremely reasonable. I can't reccomend it enough.
Thanks once again for the link.
Kind regards

You're more than welcome Bethnal.
Back to Toney for a minute - just looked at the latest video on MaxBoxing.
His latest quote: "Hasim Rahman? When you see him, tell him he can suck a fat baby's dick. I've never met him but when I do, it's on."

Why doesn't he just tell us what he really thinks? I hate the way Toney never says what he means.

Toney does like his homo-erotic flirting doesn't he.
