yeah man, he's 41 years old and is way past his prime, in fact he's a shot fighter. He's doing this cuz he can't land any big fights in boxing, he's trying to get paid.

He's not ranked high enough in boxing to fight a Klitschko and the up & comers don't really want none of him cuz there is no reward in fighting him. So Toney is pretty much out of options. I heard a few weeks ago he wanted to fight Antonio Tarver at heavyweight, that should pretty much sum up where his career is at.

He's an all time great, a legend, a true throwback fighter. But he's done. 72-6-3. You don't see many modern day fighters with records like that anymore. That's a whole lot of years fighting.

I hope Dana matches him up with a striker if he does fight in the UFC. I don't want to see him get steamrolled by a wrestler or submitted by a bjj guy. He may be 41 but I bet he can knock anybody in the UFC out that's willing to trade and bang.


LMAO @ "front kicks, back kicks, all that. side check kick." haha he doesn't even know what he's talking about lol!

Put him in with Kimbo!

Fuck it. Sure, his technical skills have diminished but one thing that never goes is a fighter's power. Even though he's over the hill, he'd still probably out box most of the heavyweight division.

What he would do when someone kicks him or takes him down is a different story. Which is why Kimbo would be the perfect fight for him because he sucks at both of those things.

^ I remember watching that fight years ago, and wondering what the benefit of having the boxing glove on was. To this day, I do not see why he would choose to wear a glove.

It looks hilarious though.
