    He lasted a little longer than 25 seconds, he lasted about 3 minutes and fought the submission for a bit, but then tapped.

    Sad part was he didn't throw or land a single punch !

    I was obv exaggeration for effect. And it was obvious he cared a lot more about getting paid then winning. i mean, he did just enough to not get called a cheat, make Dana White and MMA fans happy, and collect a huge check by mma standards.

    He knew his sacrificial lamb role and played it perfectly. And did it without getting so much as a scratch. He was never going to win, we knew it, he knew it, and at the end of the day everyone was happy.

    Calm down.

    Yes it was a disgrace that is for sure. I watchd it live on PPV and was greatly disapointed with his "effort" and he clearly put a lot of training in preparing for that match.

    lol sorry, wasn't looking for an argument. I think what was cool about that whole deal is the true boxing fan had little doubt what was going to happen. And most of us laughed at the performance and were glad he got paid so well and wasn't hurt. I heard more arguments from casual mma fans that Toney might win then boxing fans in the mma vs boxing hype job Dana tried to do. Which to me was lolz.
