Re: James Toney signs multi fight deal with the UFC
This is awful news, I'm very disappointed in Dana.
Apart from Kimbo, I cant think of another Heavyweight or Light-Heavyweight within the UFC that isnt going to take Toney down and beat the shit out of him, put him to sleep or snap his leg or arm. Kimbo would be a joke match-up as well, he's a back-street brawler with limited MMA skills, who favours standing. Toney would murder him, their stand-up skillsets are obviously light years apart.
I really wish they wouldnt mix these two sports. They are both completely different ball games. I have always liked James Toney as a BOXER, as an MMA fighter it's just plain ridiculous. And Toney is completely naive if he thinks just because he has world class hands he can live with these multi-dimentional athletes.
The thing is, Dana has always been a huge boxing fan, I think he has sold out here again in the hope of using Toneys name to lift the name of the UFC. Cheap shot. And I'm a big Dana White fan.

Some people say boxing is a matter of life or death, it's not, it's far more important than that.
