James Toney vs John Ruiz part2

[ghana21]

My all time fav boxer, who will fight anybody with no qualm......1 of the last ol school boxers who watched endless tapes of Ezzard Charles

[finetubs]

anyone imagine either of these bums lasting 1 rd with prime tyson?lennox,4man?jeez

[AbulKhidir]

@finetubs did you seriously just call toney a bum?

[ghana21]

@finetubs Get out of here u must be 1 of those ppl that hop on boxer's dicks huh, u know nothing about boxing

[catucker2]

if anybody believes dat james toney won dis fight bcuz of some type of "steriods" is brainwashed by dis mayweather i jus wanna show my sport is clean talk james toney is a legend n a truly great fighter toney won dis fight wit pure skill ol skool fightin n if these so called steriod experts would watch more boxing instead of search for drug testing and trying to accuse somebody of cheating you prolly understand wat ur watchin y would he need steriods to beat john ruiz

[Kaito66666]

TESTES POSITIVE ON THIS FIGHT !!

[Robespierr]

@Kaito66666 to heal up a bicep injury u fool

[Khaos969]

God id love to see how long Randy Couture lasted in a boxing match LOL

[jevonmichael]

@Khaos969 23 seconds.. and then right to the wrestling moves like a little bitch...

[Steven1992ization]

@Khaos969 longer then what james did in their mma fight, thats for sure. i actuslly felt embarressed for that black shit.

[EcdsKO1323O]

Did you see the counter right hand over thea?

[PaRRaDoX7]

larry sucks dick.. if it wasnt for roy id have to mute it during debates

[Rafa38]

dam toney's looks like the phillsberry doughboy...fat ass.

[Squizz420]

Funny that Roy is calling this fight, and he beat both of these guys. That's gotta' be a good feeling.

[pearcemark2]

@Squizz420 Roy and Toney should rematch. It couldn't be worse than the Hopkins fight.

[MrPhillyrick1]

you can tell when hbo announcers want someone to win, they call a biased fight. it always happens on hbo. every fight! they never relate whats really happening. until their guy is getting his ass whipped and theyre forced to come to terms with whats happening. and they still implore their fighter to turn it around.

2:35 ruiz shoots out a jab and misses. james hits him with a solid right.

lampley screams " hard jab by ruiz!!" smh, what a fucking joke! roy jones had to correct him.

[godzangel100]

i idint know roach trained toney 

[rapeyou8991]

boring



[connymat]

Ruiz style is perfect for the likes of Roy and Toney...

[MrKooldaddykool]

classic

[ThunderStriker89]

if there is any fighter who knows no fear its Toney. Proper old schooled fighter who would fight anybody!

[connymat]

@ThunderStriker89 Absolutly !!!!!

[boxingjos]

Toney will fight almost 50 year old Randy Couture tonight.

Sad to say, but Toney will have absolutely no chance against Couture.

James Toney will not make it to the end of round one.

Such a shame...

[47TheSteve]

@boxingjos Amen!

[Plato413]

Crap boxers shit fight! Where are all the good boxers?

[rastabus]

@Plato413 Crap boxers? you think Toney is a crap boxer? Fuck off. You know nothing about boxing.

[rastabus]

@rastabus Ruiz, now he is a crap boxer, so you are actually half right... but you're half very, very wrong...

[Plato413]

@rastabus why do you want to swear? I don't want to argue if I know boxing, I know myself I do know boxing. But if you look at this fight, you caal it good?you just swear to those who disagree with you?

[rastabus]

@Plato413 I didn't mean to offend you. I was just emphasising my point. This might not be an all time great fight, but James demonstrates some superb counter punching in it. If you believe James Toney is a crap boxer, I'm afraid you know nothing about boxing. Go do some research, in your own time, this is just a reccomendation, i am not, in any way telling you to fuck off.

[rastabus]

@Plato413 hang on crap and shit is swearing....

[Plato413]

@rastabus don't want to argue with you on this, it's only show what the person you are like

[rastabus]

@Plato413 You swear too and you know nothing about boxing so just fuck off.

[Plato413]

@rastabus you think you are tough because you say fuck off to me? You think this makes you right? You might be right that he is good, does that mean you need to fuck people? be educated and rational, you no need doing this

[rastabus]

@Plato413 Show 'what the person' I am like? No. You're wrong. I am right. James Toney is an all time great.

[Plato413]

@rastabus I am a boxing fan too and I think this fight is crap, what's wrong with it? Does all good boxers fight good all the time? No I doubt it! I think this is not a good fight, you can disagree with me but no need for you to say fuck off to me.

[rastabus]

@Plato413 You said they were crap boxers. You are back tracking now, when, I think, maybe, you should be checking back on what you have written instead. Don't you? You think they are good boxers now? James Toney is a great boxer... Ruiz isn't. Ruiz makes bad fights. However, as I have already said, there is some admirable counterpunching from Toney as usual.

[Plato413]

@rastabus I meant even good boxer don't fight good all the time, doesn't matter anyway

[rastabus]

@Plato413 You should say what you mean then... and, as I said Toney puts on a pretty good demonstration of counter punching here...

[boxingisbomb]

@Plato413 Agreed. A boxer's success shouldn't be judged by one fight. Even the best lost sometimes.

[Plato413]

@boxingisbomb and, look at the shape of James......why didn't he keep himself in good shape? or he jumped in the ring just for a payday?!

[MrPhillyrick1]

@Plato413 james started at 160pounds. and toney has always come to fight. he had a hard head and he never was put on his back in all his boxing matches. you never saw toney get in the ring and give a half ass performance. james never got in the ring just for a payday. not james toney!

[drugwhore]

@ooofemaleooo we will see how much of the ground game toney has learned later this week but one things for sure if toney stands with randy for just one min and randy walks in with that stiff movement he will be in that list of mma fighters beat by boxers

[drugwhore]

@ooofemaleooo im going to say your like 12 or 13 years old and know nothing about a real sport like boxing well you should know manny pacquiao alone would beat any mma fighter of his weight easy

[drugwhore]

@ooofemaleooo your not a boxing fan im sure the only reason you know about james toney is from his up coming fight with that bullshit ufc fight if you like mma then go ahead and watch it but always no there is not one mma fighter that can beat a world class boxer but a boxer in mma has a vary good shot of beating a mma fighter in a mma fight

[lordofkronos]

everytime i see james toney, i wana eat some milk duds

[terdburgler99]

this is why i watch MMA. this is like watching golf.

[drugwhore]

@terdburgler99 and mma is like watching gay porn and bad street fighting

[hinduw]

wtf? Is this John "The Bobblehead" Ruiz?

[jmarra07]

It's nice hearing Roy Jones say good things about James Toney. I still think if they fought again that Toney would win, and you can kinda sense that respect from Jones when he says all those things about Toney

[xkillaz18x]

tony is going to get murdered by couture in mma

[bigtimmy727]

@xkillaz18x lol i was thinking that the whole time i was watching this

[mylittlenoori]

at 45 sec

*spit

[TrujilloRuben]

randy couture you better be ready

[xkillaz18x]

@TrujilloRuben ready for what?...couture said hes not going to stand and box with tony...tony better learn some take down defence and fast lol

[9114southcentral]

Tyson would have killed both of these pussies at the same time

[RosscoRussell]

@9114southcentral good one .. =/

[JoshLucas5]

John Ruiz looks drunk.

[GOATAli]

Ruiz, one of the worst fighters in history to win a belt. He is so fucking

boring.

[Ahmet1445]

@GOATAli

right like the klitschkos

[aghahowa11]

is toney guy actually 5"9? thats pretty short for heavyweight cos im 5"9 lol but onlu 70kg

[suprapower101]

ive seen ihm listed at 5'10 and 5'11, but yea 5'9 is the most common.

Toney really is only a fat middleweight though

[manfuckdat]

i love that phllly shill defense..sickk shit

[gqmighty]

this fight...techincally..never happened...ruled a "no contest" after toney tested positive for steriods

[malicedixmois]

Are you allowed to push or shove someone off when they grab you in boxing, like when Ruiz keeps grabbing JT could JT just push him off? Sorry for the probably stupid question but I haven't been a boxing fan for to long. Love the sport now though.

[gqmighty]

not a bad question...everyone needs to learn..your not supposed to so..having said that..you can do it too an extent..and in boxing..its excepted to grab when you are hurt..now ruiz grabs more then that....and it isnt really legal, but he more or less gets away with it.

[GeGeMus12]

haha Tony fights like Floyd with the shoulder roll stance

[makpak]

u mean floyd fights like Toney..

[jcpnw]

@makpak, no he doesn't. only the shoulder roll

[hinduw]

@makpak fuck yea. Toney is the first in everything, man.

[amck72]

@makpak Actually Floyd fights like Charley Burley, who was ducked by Sugar Ray Robinson for years...look him up he was a great technician

[TheMightyMills]

@makpak Well I would argue that Floyd has mastered it and Tony is great at it...

[TheRey4you]

@makpak are you retarded ?. that style is a Michigan's style.. all fighters from rapids Michigan fight the same way .. Floyd sr , Roger . toney , floyd . where are thyeyre from ? mid west ..

[makpak]

@TheRey4you what the fuck are you on about? what i said had nothing to do with wat u said?

[HatmanTV]

yeh i know its very common for african athletes 2 lie about thier age in order 2 get signed 2 big foreign promoter/ team (what ever the sport), & in a country like nigeria where peter is from, getting a new altered birth certificate & passport is as easy as buying soda

the rumours ive heard is that he's closer to 39 than 29, if thats true, that would explain alot!

[FarRockStandUp]

crazy that Roy Jones is commentating and he beat both of them

[makpak]

he got lucky with james and u know it.

[FarRockStandUp]

no he didnt he beat his ass

[makpak]

ur lying to ur self.

[IronChefPeter]

Ruiz is just a clutcher and grabber, a complete embarrassment to boxing. He was a complete pussy when it came to taking a punch, I have never seen a heavyweight so afraid to get hit.

[HatmanTV]

if toney had the dicipline & determination 2 lose that huge belly & get in shape, it would improve his sharpness, his mobility, he'd be able 2 throw more shots, his balance would improve-& there4 his power would aswell. Then he might be a real force at heavyweight. but as it stands he's the laziest fighter in the top 10, even lazier than sam peter! & its hard 2 be lazier than sam peter! lol lol

[OscarDanDan76]

Toney is lucky he was fighting when the heavyweights were ao poor or he would have got hurt.

[shellbsd23]

yeah i agree. this was toney at his best in the hws. imagine if he wouod have to fight lewis / tyson or a big dude like foreman lol

[OscarDanDan76]

would have been fun to watch. He's trying to get in to UFC I have heard.

[TheFastFreddy]

u right...but sam USED to be a hard worker in da gym but i don't know what da hell happen

[HatmanTV]

@TheFastFreddy i guess peter got rich & lost his hunger 2 fight, life is easy 4 him now so maybe its harder 2 stay motivated... also i heard rumours that peter is older than his stated age, i mean like 7years older!

[TheFastFreddy]

yep thats what happen cuz after da olympics he was knockin' everbody out...but after he got dat money he fell off.

DAMN...I DIDN'T HEAR THAT...NOT ON TV OR IN DA GYM...IMMA ASK MY DAWG NATE CAMPBELL NATE KNOW EVERY DAMN THING LOL

[HatmanTV]

toney's able to go 12 rounds all the time because he's very experienced, relaxed, doesnt move much,spends alot of time on the ropes in fights,& he doesnt waste his punches- but toney's fitness for a professional boxer is terrible! the guy doesnt even do roadwork, pushups or anything, he doesnt even use the heavy bag- he said it himself! all he tends to do in the gym is pads and sparring. if he was in better condition he would stand a better chance against the klitschkos, instead he's a fat slob.

[prmasta]

jajajaja

[prmasta]

unlovo ningun arreola mexican opina,lloraria a lagrimas en este peso

[thebadbrain]

Toney is the man. Much respect to him and his career.

[thebadbrain]

John Ruiz.... Just the sight of that name bores me to tears.

[HatmanTV]

toney is fat coz he loves food, always has, thats always been his main weakness, toney is not an athlete. He dont have enough power or fitness at heavyweight to be a threat to the klitchkos

[tacoandbeer]

I miss Roy Jones on commentary

[TimeSplittersChimp]

same he is very respectfull and well presented and always unbiast i think he is great for the sport

[tacoandbeer]

Thats true and he was a pretty awesome boxer too lol

[huthut91]

much more impressive performance from Toney than Jones vs Ruiz, IMo.

[TheNeptune07]

ruiz is the worst thing to ever happen to boxing

[wrongdmx]

james pop his ass at 2:38 on the youtube clock

[unlovo]

nigun pinche boricua opina jajaja

[futureproof28]

i love how roy jones has to correct the two so called experts so often during this fight. lampley is okay, but merchant is just the worst.

[amensupremera]

I really really really really wanted to see Toney fight Valuev 5'9 vs 7'1. I just wanted to see if a fight like that would work. You'd think Toney would be at a disadvantage but Valuev would have to seriously bend down to hit him but Toney would be limited to almost only body punches. Ahhh what could have been

[connymat]

@futureproof28 Hard jab by Ruiz!!!! 

[rayzeos116]

its amazing how Toney was on steroids during this fight, but hes so fat and not in shape, i dont understand. I wish he didnt use roids for this fight, they stripped him of the belt he won in this fight becasue of it. He didnt need to be juiced up to beat this sack of shit Ruiz

[KHLB516]

Hes so fat cus he got this secretion coming from his peturitary gland that causes him to gain belly fat....The steroids was for a shoulder injury but later steroid use was to offset the secretion on hormones from peturitary gland that causes him to pack of fat

[preoxwhygen2007]

toney was on roids cause 4 months before this fight he had shoulder surgery... he took it to heal the muscle not to win a fight.. notice how fat and out of shape he was?

[Rasclot222]

toney tapped that ass. Ruiz is a shit fighter.

[suprewa]

james toney is awesome to watch, so technical and has awesome counter ability, thing i like about him most is that he can stand infront of anyone for the whole match and not take a backward step no matter who hes against power puncher, speedfighter or smartfighter

[Inspector711]

ruiz was robbed

[TechMaven]

That's funny!

[jacobjohnp]

james toney fat ccunt

[jonshultz]

How old is larry Merchant?

[daREDspyda]

older than time itself.

[Madmarlol]

I wouldn't want to hit Ruiz if I were in the ring with him, he seems like such a nice big teddy bear. I would rather just hug him.

[boxingnut1986]

toneys the greatest

[Jorsalfar]

I'm glad Roy was there to set that idiot Lampley straight. "Oo,a Ruiz jab!" "Actually, it was a Toney right". :P

[twobitmage]

that made me laugh

[KHLB516]

yea lampley is known for only calling the punches he wants like in the middle and early part of cotto and margarito he never called one margarito punch only cotto cus he was pullin for cotto

[Jorsalfar]

Lets get together and beat the shit out of him,shall we?:S

[jonshultz]

lampley was a decent pro in the early 1970's

[krimosibi]

when was that fight??

[wrongdmx]

BACK IN 2004

[tpriest1914]

April 2005

[ptldjk]

Toney put on alot of weight, but he's still fast, elusive and very light on his feet. This guy hasn't rusted at asll over the years

[californicator]

BURGERKING BABY

[bm2g]

james 'LETS EAT' toney!!!

[ptldjk]

bm2g... Love it.. Let's eat Toney!!!

[danlfc1983]

In the Toney corner, I think James makes his mind up about most of the things he is gonna do, Roach is just a 2nd pair of eyes.

[Jorsalfar]

Toney is such a nigga. No offense to you afro-americans.

[thefireman101]

every offense taken, thanks-

you call him a nigga, you call the rest of us, niggas.

and if you could fight and whip people, you would be a red neck.......

[Jorsalfar]

I CAN fight people, yes even whip if I wanted to, but I am DEFINITELY no redneck. I come from the Balkans!;)

[SFBoxers]

yehhh toney burger king

[vanderpant2116]

i love james toney i hope he continues in the heavyweight division

[olsckoolfighter]

where the hell is 3 and 1 and the others?
