Dana White and James Toney private meeting (video)

[ИATAS]

Put him against Kimbo, and James....dear god dont let boxing look bad.....dear god

If Toney were to fight guys like Kimbo are perfect opponents for him. Guys that like to trade and don't really have much boxing skills.

Toney is kinda ******ed though, I think he's punch drunk trying to go into the UFC.

[Kakutogi-Gumi]

If liddel can make it with his weak ass stand up game so can Toney (waits for a nerd to talk about chucks ncaa wrestling career) kimbo vs toney or any stand up fighter toney>>>>>>>>>>>>>>bar fighters

Nah. Lidell wrestling was on a community college level. It did suppliment his Kempo by helping him keep the fight standing.

BTW, what's your beef with NCAA wrestling? It's pretty much the closest we have to competitive freestyle wrestling in the US.

[F l i c k e r]

Toney wants to prove boxing > mma. Thats why he doesn't want a mma career, he just wants to fight a UFC guy and then brag about how he showed boxing is better than mma.

I think Dana's biggest concern is what kinda money is Toney gonna want for this. Dana isn't a dip ****, he isn't going to over pay anyone for 1 fight.

But oh well. Let it happen. I just hope Dana doesn't give him someone ****** like Kimbo like all you guys are saying. Give him Big Nog. Lets see what Toney can do vs a legend.

[KILLA RIGHT]

Isn't that monster congo a stand up fighter? Give him that guy

Isn't that monster congo a stand up fighter? Give him that guy

Good idea, Kongo's wrestling sucks. He can't do good double leg for million dollars.

But he has nasty kicks and knees, Toney needs to work at least on checking those kicks, but clinch would be a problem. Don't forget, those guys are natural HW's, while Toney should fight at CW at least.

Kongo would be a good fight, if Toney is serious, could be a good fight.

Nobody will stand up with James Toney, they will all immediately take him down where he is not used to and he will lose.

[Mikhnienko]

He is a fake boxing fan. He doesn't even know JMM FFS.
He didn't know what James Toney did to Holyfield. Pretty confident on that by his tone.

As for Toney, he will abosolutely get beat by anyone who wrestles and kciks well.

Nah he's a legit boxing fan.

Dana : "i had Evander on my wall and eveything"
JT: "and you see what i did to him" lol

Isn't that monster congo a stand up fighter? Give him that guy

James would murder him with his hands but Kongo is 6'4 240 or so and has nasty nasty leg kicks. He could probably just stay on the outside and chop Toney down in 1 round with low kicks and eventually bring one upstairs.

Plus Kongo has the best "knee to the balls" in MMA, the most effective tool in his stand up game.

[Danny Gunz]

Hahaha toney is friggin hilarious...
Dana White: " It is unusual I' am even talking with you about this, I've had all kinds of boxers interested in fights, boxers like evander holyfield. Evander Holyfield was on my wall when I grew up and I didn't even hold a meeting with him."
James Toney: "You see what I did to that dude [Evander]"

[Earl-Hickey]

Oh my god this is ridiculous, what is Toney playing at? i mean at his age, he will get destroyed!

Rather let him earn his shot at Kongo. Give him to Pat Berry or CroCop.

Better yet, give him to Thiago. Haven't seen a Brazilian execution in ages.
