Are You Dissapointed In James Toney?

[Gorilla Dogs]

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"?

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

[Da Hammer]

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.

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

Exactly. Because if the roles were reversed, Silva would be exposed in a boxing ring, even by an ancient RJJ. Which IMO, is even worse than what happened tonight. James has nothing to be ashamed of, IMO. He came, he fought, and he got paid. Nothing wrong with that. Nobody in their right mind expected him to win anyhow.

old RJJ boxing skills >>>> A Silva boxing skills. That's for sure.

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

[Squizz]

And let us not forget that Anderson Silva was actually a professional boxer before becoming pro in MMA. His record was 0-2. Look it up. He idolized RJJ.

how could u be disapointed with him, u ****** 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
