James Toney wins WBF heavyweight title

More details to come, but 48-year-old James Toney stopped journeyman Mike Sheppard on Saturday night at the Eastern Michigan Convocation Center in Ypsilanti, Michigan. With the win, Toney claimed the vacant WBF heavyweight title. He is now the oldest man to win a heavyweight world title, breaking George Foreman’s record, although the WBF is considered a fringe title.

Well he's mandatory for the European title so my prediction is that he'll face Agit Kabayel for that and then go on to face the winner of Parker v Bellew. I could be completely wrong but we'll wait and see.

Chisora vs Hellious is off also.

Is the rematch on?

I guess the rematch will get them some good coin.

Lucas Browne expected to return on June 2 in Sydney.

I'm so shocked.

Just put Ortiz in there as champ and stop the circus act. He's been clean for 3 years.
