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

Re: James Toney signs multi fight deal with the UFC
I'm not sure where he is at now to be honest pal, but it would be a huge struggle. Randy would take the fight at HW anyway, so thats not an issue. But Toney would need to get to 205 to fight Chuck or Tito forsure.

JFAT is probably the only Heavyweight I can think of that encounters weigh-in's in the same way most other fighters do outside of the heavyweight division do... In the sense that he strips down in weight to as much as he see fit, looks pretty good at the weigh in, then BANG he blows up to JFAT proportions again.
I think that what ever he does, he'll always wind up a fat git come fight night

They could always throw Toney with the other UFC fat lad, Roy Nelson.

Re: James Toney signs multi fight deal with the UFC
I think that Kirkland did sum it up pretty well: It is to get the Boxing fans attention plus, they signed him for a couple of fights. The last thing they want is to burn their new well paid dog to get burn at the first occasion and to stop dragging interests. Kimbo's the perfect fit for him: Limited on the ground (though always improving), ordinary boxing, good strength and a very shit chin, nothing Toney can't crush, especially as Kimbo's days in the UFC are counted anyway. What's next? Not sure, Ortiz-Liddell winner can make sense as they are bot shot now but still drag a lot of attention, if Liddell wins, it'll be better as he has (I think) stylewise less chances against Toney than Ortiz who has a good ground game.
All in all, as much as some of us might dislike it, it was a wise move by White.

Re: James Toney signs multi fight deal with the UFC
Toney is going to get ruined in the UFC is he doesn't take time to learn the ground game. Couture would handle him within a round.

Re: James Toney signs multi fight deal with the UFC
Listen to the interview in one of my earlier posts man......... I've got a feeling he'll do just fine...........Toney is going to get ruined in the UFC is he doesn't take time to learn the ground game. Couture would handle him within a round.
