    Did anyone really think Toney would not get punished? This wasn't a Herschel Walker type deal where he debuted against a bottom feeder. Toney made his debut(bare in mind that MMA is a different sport than boxing) against one of MMAs best, and a guy with a wealth of experience.

    If they were in a boxing ring, I'm quite certain Toney would win rather easily.

    Yes, and you won't find a single MMA fan on this site who would refute that. Couture has even said that himself.

    Toney didn't compete against Couture in a wrestling match. Your logic is terrible.

    Had a feeling Toney would just get taken down, but he made it sooooooooo easy for Randy. He just walked up to the middle and just stood there. Almost like, ok, remember the script, just take me down and get this over with so i can go collect my 750k from Dana.

    Atleast he could have tried to move his fat ass around the cage, show him some angles, try to get a punch off, we didn't even see him attempt to throw!

    This has no impact on boxing, because James didn't box. James Toney made James Toney look bad.

    No, no it wasn't.

    And yes, Randy did Ground n' Pound Toney. He could have done that all day.

    Terrible.

    Why? It wasn't even the main event. Even without the Randy v Couture fight it would have been worth watching if you were a fan.
     
  10. They should rematch with boxing rules just to make it fair.

    Well i'm a fan but it wasn't a great card to be honest, good fighters on it, but didn't really deliver.

    I don't think Toney made boxing look bad. But boxing fans seem to be doing a great job at making themselves look a bunch of complete tits with the ******ed comments following the fight. I'm a bigger boxing fan than an MMA fan but I really wish people here would stop being such a bunch of idiots (I know that will never happen), it almost makes me feel embarressed to be associated with the sport.

    Really? I must have missed the wrestling match they did. You got a link to the video?

    If Couture starts talking **** about how he can beat Toney in a boxing match, and follows him around demanding a fight, then you are absolutely right.
    But Couture won't do that. He's not a boxer.

    He didn't make boxing look bad at all you imbecile... for the obvious reason that they weren't boxing.

    A boxer cannot be expected to outgrapple a world-class wrestler and highly decorated MMA fighter. Only complete ****ing ******s thought he had even a tiny slither of a chance.

    The only people who look bad tonight are Dana White and the UFC for sanctioning this pointless mismatch.
