    The whole idea of this fight is plain ******ed....everyone keeps saying if toney can stay off the mat he'll win....well no **** if he keeps him off the mat it's boxing so who cares. But if randy gets him down he'll win...no ****. It's mma and toney is a boxer. I dont see why people care either way..it's two different sports. Toney isn't a better quarterback than tom brady either so ****ing what. And put tom brady in the ring and toney will beat him. Big surprise. In this fight toney will get his ass beat and he should he's out of his element. All this mma vs boxing crap is dana whites effort to stir up more fans for his sport, and it seems he's even suckered some boxing fans into this crap

His name is KJ Noon and this dude used excellent footwork to knock a BJJ blackbelt out COLD. Although the BJJ dude wanted to shoot in, the boxer had excellent footwork and the BJJ fighter could never get within range. The difference in handspeed was obvious and he caught him with pinpoint accuracy. In fact Noon was a former middleweight champ who was stripped of his title. So they shouldn't write Toney off. All Toney needs is good enough take down defense to keep Couture off him. Couture on the other hand can't train long enough to stop Toney from hitting him if he gets within range. THATS going to be the difference maker.
      I saw the same fight and I agree with everything you said. KJ did an excellent job transitioning his boxing skills over to MMA but he also spent years and years perfecting his ground defense and grappling ability and also has had many pro Mu Thai fights as well.. He didn't just take a crash course like Tony.

            This fight is a no-lose for boxing as far as I can tell. If Toney loses, it doesn't show boxing is worse than MMA as we all know in a boxing match Toney would destroy Randy, therefore proving nothing, Whereas if Toney wins that shows boxing to be better than MMA.

              I really really hope Toney tries to shoulder roll in this fight so all the *****s can see that **** doesnt work in a real fight.

                lmao but toney needs to have a gameplan for if randy gets toney on the ground and he cant get back up until the next round. im talking about how silva was grabbing sonnens head which means sonnen couldnt load up on punches.

                throwing sharp short elbows that cut up sonnen bad and would cut up anyone

                and when sonnen was loading up silva blocked or rolled with the punch

                if toney had more time he should work on that triangle choke, if fedor can do the triangle choke than physically toney should be able to

                I believe than randy cant hit toney anywhere near as hard as hes been hit by RJJ or Holyfield so the only way randy can win is by decision or submission

                i still got toney winning and i hope he shouts out burger king again!

                  Toney has a 1% chance at most.

                  People seem to forget that Toney's fat legs are not going to withstand ONE kick. Couture doesn't even have to take him down. I'd kick him until he falls down, laugh until he gets up, and then keep kicking him around the cage. If Toney tries to get in close - clinch knee knee knee.

                      Toney is NOT going to be able to slap on a triangle choke on Couture. It is nowhere near as easy as you think it is.

                      I've been wrestling since I was 8years old and was a 3x california state championship qualifier in high school and still couldnt slap a triangle choke on a bjj blue belt i grappled with.

                      If I couldnt do it with almost 20years of grappling experience...Toney is not going to be able to do it with 6months or less of practice...I dont care how good of an athlete he is naturally.
