However, as it turned out, the fight was just as easy as Ward’s previous 16 fights in his professional career, as he took apart veteran Esteban Camou (23-5, 19 KOs), stopping [...]

By Chris Williams: Right about now, heavyweight James Toney (71-6-3, 43 KOs) should considerate himself very fortunate that he didn’t lose to Fres Oquendo (29-5, 18 KOs) on Saturday night at the Morongo Casino Resort & Spa, in Cabazon, California, because from what I saw of the fight, Toney lost every round except for the [...]

By Adam Laiolo: Lets put opinions aside of what you think of him right now, whether good or bad, and just take one look at his record from a neutral perspective.
