I know it's two fat men dancing, but I was hoping a TV station would take pity. Anyone know if it's on an obscure channel?

think toney may win this one.

don't ask me why. :lol:

he looks in fairly good shape.

rahman deserved the nod in the 1st fight though.

Thought Toney won the first one close because he landed the cleaner shots but he's slipped so bad he's losing to the likes of Sam Peter. :roll:

Actually Max, Hasim looked bloody awful against Zuri Lawrence in his last fight, so I think it's a close fight for who's worse (Toney also looked awful against Batchelder).

Whoever wins, it's a bloody sad state of affairs.
.
... watching them wobble around the ring for 12 rounds, especially for a once-great fighter like JT.

Put it this way, i'd much rather watch this fight than Wlad/Thompson as at least you got some real boxing skills on show plus Some great trash talking between Rahman and Toney

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAryVA6wpX8

think i'd have to say Rahman wins the battle of the words, what do u think?

Also anyone know if this fight will be streamed over the net? Any links would really be appreciated :TU:

Toney is 226lbs , his lightest in a good few years, though Rahman still wins on points for me.

where u gonna download the fight from terry?

surely there must be a live stream going on somewhere? if Toney can capture a little bit of his old magic it'll be a thing of beauty to watch

I had a little punt on Toney at evens after the weigh in.

Come on lad!

Just remembered he was in relatively decent shape for the Peter rematch :(

I say that Rahman is more washed up than James.

JT gets a good write up from dougie fischer on max today, and he does look good sparring in the video. Then again Rahman could look good too but theres no info on Rock.

I don't really like trash talkers, but I could listen to Toney all day. I was on you tube earlier trawling through pre and post fight interviews, damn brilliant

Toney was a cracking fighter back in the day, and even at this age he is a handful for most.

This one is for you Terry D

So do we know if this has turned up on any obscure Sky channel yet or if there's any good streams?

Rumours thats going to be changed to a NC due to accidental headbutt

Shame no clear conclusion to this, to at least eliminate one of these two veterans from the mix. Either way, I hope both are back fighting quickly, neither are 2 fights a year superstars anymore.

Rahman's best form was when he fought frequently.

I maintain he's underachieved outside one knockout of Lewis.

He had the tools to have caused big WK plenty of problems. Tall, strong, thudding jab and a big right.


Just a lazy mf.
