Talk:James Toney

Bill Miller
I think SOME mention should be made in the article about his trainer during his early years, Mr. Bill Miller. The man was boxing history in the flesh and a true gentleman.

Just a suggestion... this article mentions that Toney has 'not engaged in a significant bout at heavyweight'. What about his convincing win over John Ruiz?! Granted, Ruiz will never be mistaken for one of the all-time greats, but he WAS a reigning heavyweight champion who has beaten many ranked heavyweights throughout his career. Any objections to me changing this?

I removed this statement as it is biased. I also added that he defends that his doctor gave him the steroids to treat a broken arm and some information about his non-boxing projects.

I am pretty sure that at some point the boxing commission accepted his reason for steroid use and revoked the suspension, however I am not 100% sure about it so I will let someone else change it if this is indeed true.

Birth place
Is it Grand Rapids, Michigan, or is it Ann Arbor, Michigan? A web search shows both versions, and the Russian stub has adopted the latter one. --AVRS 20:58, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
