Couture is not a submission guy at all, he is all about strike's and 'ground & pound' from what I know. I think Couture struggles to get close to Toney without taking some fast counters, late in the fight i think he will go in for some takedowns and start going for the knockout, i see Toney keeping cool and BOXING his way to a slightly boring UD. Range and defence will be very importent for Toney in this fight, both guys have granite chins.
You don't know Toney because he will always (even out of shape) come to fight. Toney has no fear, that is the reason he signed this project.
I think you missed the other posters point. I think by roll over him, he meant quite literally roll over him! Toney's a big boy don't you know!
ha ha. yeah i'm not too sharp today. i guess toney literallly 'rolling' over couture is a distinct possibility
dont understand why toney would do this i hope he's been preparing him self for mma i cant see it being easy for him in there
Toney has been pretty ignorant of the sport with some of the comments I've read from him. He will most likely be embarrassed by Couture. It's clear White wants to make an example of him, while at the same time using Toney to lure some boxing fans.. I hope by some miracle Toney can pull this off. I'd actually love to see him fight Chuck Liddell. That would be a much better matchup. I'd favor Toney with his boxing skills and chin to outclass Liddell.
He's the older guy with a bald head or something like that isn't he? Is he still a formidable top MMA fighter? Anyone here know?
He has a wrestling background. I'm not sure how he rates atm but he's one of the older guys but still has the skills that MMA requires. Not sure how Toney does or if he knows what he's getting himself into.
couture will take him to the ground and win by submision i believe. Toney has a iron jaw so he wont be able knock him out. To bad Toney is so old
