how could u be disapointed with him, u stupid enough to think he can actually win or even look gud, at another completely different sport, jeez/
give the man a break
toney is still cool in my books
No doubt, Dana wasn't crazy enough to let Silva near a boxing ring....even against an old washed up legend like Roy...
Roy KOs him in 4 after he toys with him and looks like the Roy of old
Exactly. Because if the roles were reversed, Silva would be exposed in a boxing ring, even by an ancient RJJ
old RJJ boxing skills >>>> A Silva boxing skills. That's for sure.
Oh yeah, Dana played his cards right....I have a feeling he's been waiting for this opportunity and it finally happened...I know I should hate him right now, being a huge boxing fan, but I respect his game and wish boxing was run by a dude like that
but it's funny how the idea was being brewed up a while ago when Silva was considering boxing, Roy Jones I believe, and Dana shut this whole idea down right away...he wanted to be the one who got a piece of this first
i'm just disappointed that he maybe not intentionally but nonetheless his involvement in the fight made it possible for Dana White to promote this as a Boxing vs MMA type even which is a bunch of bull****. Of course the mma groupies and the casual fan will eat this crap up as UFC being better fighters than boxers... Damn shame!
true, im watching mma live on espn2 and one of the analyst were bragging how randy beat james.
Real talk G
Freddie Roach even predicted they doin this to make boxing look bad, jus paid off to take boxing fan PPV buyers to UFC
i agree. dana white is smiling and laughing right now.

comes to fight in horrible shape while the older MMA dude looks in great shape? check
talks up a storm about how boxing is so much better than MMA and gets destroyed? check
sells his boxing soul to Dana White to make a fast buck? check
hmmm no why on earth would I be disappointed in "one of the best boxers of all time"?

How could you not be disapointed? lol
He was supposed to be training take down defence for 9 months and then Couture pulls Art Jimmerson - Royce Gracie sshyt right thurr
If not for the billing "Boxing vs MMA" and the "James Toney is one of the brest boxers ever" I wouldn't really care. But than again, who didn't expect this?
Really, anyone who knows Toney knows he's not mentally smart enough (to put it gently) to take all the grappling and kicks serious. During all the interviews, all he kept saying was "kicking is for girl" "I don't want to bodt wrestling me, I'm not gay". It was expected.
I'm dissapointed he was so disrespectful and talked up a storm and had nothing to show for it. Embarassing for my sport. Not a good represenative at all.
Credit to Randy for not punching his face any further
This.
I'm more dissapointed in Boxing's representation tonight than anything.
:grumble:
Yes. I was hoping for a Toney in better shape coming into this fight. But after the weight in there was nothing to hope for. Sure, they re is always that early one punch ko possibility, but what should have happened, hapeened.
hey at least Toney had the BALLS to do it. It shows he's fearless. Even as Couture was punching him in the face with his effeminate girly UFC punches, Toney didn't even blink at them. He ate them ****s like Skittles. Only that cheap ass choke got him out of there
