The problem is that there is little to no interest in todays american youth for boxing. Boxing is not the same sport it was during the 70's when you could see your favorite fighters match up on network TV and everyone knew who the champ was. It's not like any of the other major sports because number one it's strictly a PPV event for any halfway decent fight and fighters aren't busy anymore, your lucky to get a champ defending his title once a year. The majority of the sport has now become a foreign affair almost everything south of 160 is latino dominated and everything north of 160... not many people care but even the heavyweight class has been foreign run the last several years since Lewis won the title.
I love Toney and think he is a legend and an old school fighter, he's never been a physical specimen but he loves the fight game and he makes it entertaining. Though it's a sad day when the elite boxing division has a former middleweight champ in the twilight of his career as its only shining ray of hope.
