    its the shot boxers over 40 picking them to be honest

    toney wanted a paycheck, and got one in mma because he is so far past it in boxing he can't make coin there anymore

    the same for mercer, he only fought in mma for $

    no reason for a high caliber boxer to fight in mma for a lot less money...and you seriously limit an mma guy by putting him in a boxing ring...although some have fought under k1 rules in the past

    its called an ankle pick and it was actually great strategy.
    toney had to have been expecting a shoot but not one that low. it completley took away toneys one chance to sprawl and brawl.
    i dont think anyone saw it coming. i know i didnt.

    this fight is a bit of a surprise to me as ken was one of toneys few supporters when he crossed over. i love ken but i think hes getting switched off in this fight. his timing is completely gone and the fire just aint there anymore either.
    this will look like buzz berry all over again.

    Trust me guys, I've boxed since I was 13, and had a handfull of amature MMA fights. No one takes this guy serioustly, and I dont know a single MMA fighter who really equated Toney with boxing even for his first fight.

    So chill, Toney is just gonna make himself look stupid.

    Toney needs to learn some TD and ground game. He was a fish last time around.

    This bout ranks somewhere between sad and tragic. The near 43 year old slob ex boxer against the 47 year old way past it MMA guy.

    It won't last anywhere near a round. Toney will get a brief chance to KO Shamrock. If that fails it's on the floor and submission in the blink of an eye. I favour the latter.

    Toney will get a brief chance while they are upright. But I see it going straight to the floor and a quick ugly sub. Won't last a round.

    Should be a classic

    Will prove once and for all which form of fighting is the more effective
