WelshDevilRob Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I remember the controversy about this fight at the time. Tiberi clearly won the fight. I don't think Tiberi ever fought again. Pretty sure the fights in the download section for anyone who wants to review it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugarboy Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 I saw that match many times. To me that's a large robbery, Tiberi had clearly won the fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusader Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Tiberi surprised many, and in my eyes defeat Toney, was a robbery, I believe that the outcome had a follow-up, an official investigation and two judges who scored the fight for Toney, were unlicensed in the state of New Jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boxingscorecard Posted February 3, 2011 Author Share Posted February 3, 2011 yep crusader you are right about the judges , 2 of them were unlicenced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donlevy Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 It's not like the rounds were even close either - Tiberi just completely worked him over.I never kept a scorecard but I know that I didn't give Toney anymore than three rounds. You'd think an aggressive brawler would be easy picking for a fighter like Toney wouldn't you? Those are usually the type that he loved to fight.

grapevine241 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 yup tiberi definitely won. hes a bit of a whiner though quitting because of a robbery. tbh, i would have picked toney in a rematch. toney has admitted that tiberi should have won that fight.

donlevy Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 I thought Toney looked excellent against Jirov.Jirov was competitive throughout,but I had Toney winning quite clearly in the end.That last round was just brilliant.Definitely deserved fight of the year.

Another great post to me: From Boxrec: "This fight was a masterpiece of infighting, counterpunching and old-school boxing provided by James Toney" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
