Lots of reports about Toney wanting a shot in the UFC
Toneys style won't translate well to MMA. That lazy shoulder roll countering rubbish won't work.
Toney would be the first truly big boxing name in MMA and i feel he will get embarassed thus bringing down Boxing at the same time in the eyes of joe public.
Man James Toney knows what he's doing, he aint gonna just get his ass kicked, he may get took down but you gotta get close to him first and thats when he lands a shot... MMA is not that difficult people if you can strafe and sprawl and have a stand-up like Toney you can be succsesful.. His shoulder roll may translate to a good take down defense.... ANYWAY I THINK HE CAN BEAT ANY MMA WHO TRIES TO STAND WITH HIM EVEN BROCK!
Sorry dude i know you might not watch mma.
But Brock has awful stand up lol. He is a pure wrestler nothing else.
And I disagree Toney knows what his doing especially when he said lately the fight aint going to ground.
Even the best strikers get taken down its just part of the sport, and he obviously wont leanr much about ground fighting at his age.
His best chance if he gets some 1 dimensional fighter that likes to bang or a retard like kimbo.
James Toney has been a disgrace to Boxing every since he got caught juicing.
Like the guy before me said, its more of a blemish on UFC and MMA in general.
The left overs of other Sports go there to make a living. Some actually do really well. That shit would not cut it in the Sport of Boxing. Either you're a Boxer or your not. You're not going to go from UFC cage into a professional Boxing ring. Not happening
you all make me laugh! So what if he wants to fight longer.toney busts likes to fight.I don't think he's broke....how is he going to embarrass boxing? Like ray mercer did when he knocked out former ufc champ tim sylvia in 9 seconds? Ray is 48! Toney won't do much but get a couple small paydays.

Yeah embarrassing to MMA/UFC, that everyone that is done with their original sport (even sports entertainment), go there like its a retirements home. You cant pull that shit in other sports.
