Highlights of James Toney's legendary performance in his fight against Iran Barkley in 1993 for IBF Super-Middleweight title.
James Toney - Is an American former professional boxer who competed from 1988 to 2017. He held multiple world championships in three weight classes, including the IBF and lineal middleweight titles from 1991 to 1993, the IBF super middleweight title from 1993 to 1994, and the IBF cruiserweight title in 2003. Toney also challenged twice for a world heavyweight title in 2005 and 2006 and was victorious the first time in dominant fashion as he beat John Ruiz by unanimous decision. Stylistically a defensive boxer, Toney utilized the shoulder roll technique taught to him by veteran trainer Bill Miller who had once trained heavyweight champion Ezzard Charles. Toney was an exceptional counterpuncher and inside fighter who often preferred to fight off the ropes. Lights Out!
