Two Angry Men: Iran Barkley vs. James Toney

---

James Toney moves up to super middleweight to take on IBF Champion Iran Barkley in what is expected to be a classic. Instead, Toney puts on a performance for the ages, out dueling Barkley in every facet of the game. Toney blasts Barkley's mouthpiece out in the third and fourth rounds with solid power punching. With his left eye closed and his face badly swollen, Barkley's corner stops the fight after nine rounds.
