Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Mayweather, Pacquiao Would Fall Like Toney Will

[hugh grant]

Im not writing Toney off at all because he has had time to train for a MMA fight. Its not as if he is turning up for the fight cold with no research.

In fact he might shock a few people.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

I'd love nothing more than to see Toney win by huge KO but I'm putting money on him being submitted within a round.

[komandante]

Any boxer who choose to fight in MMA I think is desperate. MMA is not a sport
likewise UFC.

[l3xxer]

with all that steroids in his body, he'll definitely win.

Win or lose. You have to respect Toney for trying...

And if he loses. Big deal. That's what everyone expects. If he wins then that's good for boxing because it's very hard to imagine a guy coming from MMA into boxing with 9 months of training and beating one of the best in the world. It's good that he's willing to challenge himself because alot of boxers talk about MMA and vice versa. But until now nobody has really had the balls to actually get in there and make a point.

mercer did beat the overrated tim sylvia in 9 seconds...

Don't you mean two weeks of actual training and 8.5 months of BS?

[KickAzz]

he speaks the truth. but toney does have a chance

toney got a puncher's chance. once they get on the ground, it's pretty much over

[CharliesRecords]

Great point by the great Bernard Hopkins....the UFC is like the MLS for Boxers - old but still need a paycheck.....

[Ravishing]

With the shape Toney's currently in, I can't imagine this fight going past the 2nd round. Randy likes to clinch against the fence and slam you down, then bring you back up and knee you. Toney's not used to tactics like that at all and it's fatigues the **** out you.

Toney's gonna be completely exhausted.

[bojangles1987]

And?

There isn't a single MMA fighter that could last six rounds in the ring with Mayweather or Pacquiao. Two different sports.

Though I do believe it is definitely easier to be a boxer and transition to MMA than the other way around.
