    Lol vitor, i know you boxed a bit but toney will beat your ass in boxing. I wouldn't mind vitor going up to heavyweight to fight toney in a MMA fight.

    I think Vitor is one of the guys in MMA who would be a good boxer. He is a sick boxer in MMA and his boxing debut was a devastating display.

    Though offensively, speed etc I think Vitor is a machine, Toney is the sort of guy that can neutralise everything you have just threw his slickness and toughness. Nevertheless, at 41 and 237 pounds Toney gives everybody a better chance then they should.

    I'd be interested in seeing this. It's a tough call but I'm intrigued. Vitor, unlike Toney, would actually train hard and try to improve on many things prior to stepping in the ring.

    Vitor's got fast hands. Thats pretty much where it ends.

    Vitor would get his ass beat down by James in boxing.

    Toney has absolutely nothing left in any form of fighting bar his name.
    I saw footage of him on the pads for his mma fight and he was terrible, even his technique was poor.
    He's 30lbs overweight to fight IMO, and will get hurt if he keeps going.
     
  10. :lol::lol: Vitor must be confused on the sport of boxing, what the **** is this 6 rounds? Did Toney get any favours from the UFC fighting Randy Couture?

    6 rounds may actually work against him


    it would allow an unfit toney to unload early w/o worrying about gassing

    Nog would be the best chance, and he would be soundly beaten.

    You guys think this is the James Toney of old?? no he's just OLD. Vitor has blazing speed. He won't need to have the technique, a slow, fat Toney will get taken out. Vitor has some really fast hands. Toney just don't got it no more.

    Big Nog? Nah dont see it. Lil Nog? May be. He represented Brazil at the Olympics. That said after seeing what Sokodjou did to him i dont think too much of his boxing.
