Rahman: "It wasn't no brawl, I just slapped blood out of his mouth for touching me!"

Moments ago WBC heavyweight champion Hasim "Rock" Rahman told Boxingtalk.com,  "We come up in the scene and we get into the joint. He's on there talking and I had to let the people know the champ was in the building now. All that James Toney stuff is whatever. James was running his mouth saying a whole bunch of shit I don't understand. In fact, I don't understand the language he speaks.  Anyway, when I walked by he touched me like he was going to slide me out of the way, but this wasn't his show and I had to let him know. I said, 'who do you think you're playing with James?' And he started running his mouth some more. So James protocol is to run his mouth when I'm not around, now he switched it around a little because he ran his mouth when I was in the building.  With him putting his little hands on me to move me over and slide me out of the way, I had to slap him, draw a little blood, make his mouth bleed and give him a little preview of what's coming. He's a fraud. And he did nothing. It wasn't no melee. He touched me and got slapped. He was acting like he wanted to get free, but like I said acting. He don't want none of this. The headline should be Rahman slaps Toney. Toney runs his mouth, Rock slaps him, Toney acts like he's being restrained but he's not. You know how you do a little hyper little boy who has ADD? He needs some ritalin, and the ritalin came in the form of my left hand slapping him in the mouth." STAY TUNED FOR FULL INTERVIEW.
