- "You have to admit, Toney looked horrible. He looked slow. He didn't look like a seasoned, conditioned athlete. You only had to look at his body structure. No way, Toney didn't get ready to fight a real, professional athlete like Randy is. It was ridiculous. He had no respect for Randy.... I know 100 percent that a boxer (could win). As long as he learns how to grapple and wrestle, he could do great. You've got to go in there respecting the sport, and not just thinking you're going to knock somebody out every time. It's a complicated sport, but a good boxer has to be a great athlete anyway."

| Ya, he's a genius on old boxing and really understands MMA. Now if only he wasn't a rapist. | |

| Tyson, "He called me a rapist and a recluse. I'm not a recluse."
Tyson is right. Any boxer should respect MMA and give it his all. If you are doing another sport you need to be in the best shape of your life.
Tyson was missing one thing though: James Toney already looked completely shot as a boxer!!!!!!!
He had major balance issues in all his fights from 2006-2008.
In late 2008 he got an absolute gift decision to Fres Oquendo (who is horrible).
He shouldn't have been licensed to box, much less try a different sport (against a Hall of Fame fighter). | |
