You cant catch Brock Lesnar with a punch eh?

Well Shane Carwin did with ease and had Lesnar running away and cowering like someone whos never been punched!! Like a sissy biitch!!

Its because theer are so few genuine good boxers in the UFC that most mma fans think boxers would do nothing.

Chuck Liddell dominated for a few years with basic boxing. If Chuck Liddells wide slow punches can catch and drop Couture, Toneys certainly will!

Only very few MMA fighters do any proper boxing training, Arlovski was one and he looked very good as a striker but his chin is just shite!

Yeah but to use boxing you have to remain on your feet. Chuck Liddell had INCREDIBLE takedown defense in his prime, and in the rare event he was taken down he had a great ability to scramble and pop up to his feet.

It remains to be seen whether Toney has these qualities...

Dont claim to know a lot about the UFC but Brock Lessler looked far from unbeatable in his last fight.

As much as I love James Toney, he is going to be a senile, mumbling wreck in about 10 years. The differences in his speech from when he was a middleweight to now are unbeleivable. Doesnt even sound like the same person talking.

I've never been a James Toney fan. But then again, I'm not a UFC fan either, and I think Dana White's a jerk for trying to discredit boxing and pump up UFC. So it's a no-win situation personally for me. My wish would be for a simultaneous, devastating KO of both fighters, or.... for the A/C to break down and have only 3 fans left at the arena.

On second thought, it's not an important enough event for me to even worry about it. It probably won't even make ESPN.

This sounds good. Obviously theyre gonna talk James up but James is just such a crafty clever boxer that I cant wait to see the shock on coutures face when he cant get close to Toney because of those hands



Alot of people think its a foregone conclusion but why isnt James capable of this?

[dl7481]

Tell me about it

[rjj tszyu]

I wouldn't put it past Toney at all. At the end of the day he is a real puncher (maybe not in boxing but definitely compared to those sissy shots in mma) and Couture has been caught with plenty of punches before off people who don't have one 5th of the striking skill of a top class boxer.

If Toney used his foot movement more I'd actually have a lot of money on him to win this fight, but the lack of foot movement will leave him open to a takedown. But at the same time the second Randy thinks about getting Macho and trying to throw a punch at Toney he WILL be countered and he will be hurt.

Someone like Roy Jones in his prime would be an ideal force for boxing to throw in IMO he hit damned hard had lightning reflexes and as he showed against Reggie Johnson when he floored him, can be stood a good distance from you one second then the next your on the floor and he's 10 feet away again, all because of a lazy jab that MMA fighters also use instead of feinting. Apparently those are feints according to the commentators lol.
