He said that he is ready to brutalize Ruddock although he respects immensely. He promised that the Jamaican audience will have a good time watching elite boxing.
Razor also had a memorable career that was full of many great fights. Fans should expect a certain amount of skill although the two fighters are far beyond their prime. Ruddock is 59 years old while Toney is four years younger. It is for this reason that the fight has been booked as an exhibition. This fight will be the feature bout although there will be many younger boxers in the event.
Razor promised that he will bring the fight to his opponent. This comment prompted James to respond with his own ‘trash talk.’
