Nutmeg Finish
Either you kinda love it or you really don't: the WBC has tapped James Toney as the next mandatory defense for current champion Hasim Rahman. Toney is one of the best heavyweights working, no question, but he's ranked #5 by the very organization that has now granted him a title shot. Their own #1 contender, the Bull from Bosporus, stands hat in hand on a rainy streetcorner, waiting for a cab. No wonder Toney feels like having a cigar.
