Rahman’s Not Expecting Much

Fox Sports has an AP story where Hasim Rahman, talking about his upcoming fight with James Toney, is quoted as saying:

“I’m not overconfident, I’m very comfortable,” Rahman said. “I don’t take anything away from James Toney, who is a very clever fighter. But we’ve figured out this puzzle.”

He then adds:

“It might go six rounds or less,” Rahman said. “He’ll be a bloody mess in the first round if he stands in front of me.”

Sounds mighty comfortable.
