LOL....not even UFC's Photoshoppers could make this picture of Toney believable

Toney came in at 237 during the weigh-ins. He was 20 pounds lighter during his last boxing match.
Homie is gonna be huffin'-and-puffin' half way through the first round if he even makes it that far.

The more I think about this shit, the less I give Toney any chance in this fight. To be honest, he is probably one of the worst type of boxers to try and crossover.
For almost any boxer, their major opportunity to win the fight will be by KO. Using their hand speed and punching power. The best type of boxer would be somebody who has very quick hands and can catch you with a big shot at anytime. Think abot the type of fighter Toney is. Especially in the later years of his career. He's been a very defensive fighter who likes to counter punch. He typically uses the ropes alot, leaning back on them to save energy and make it difficult for opponents get a clean shot on him. That wont work in MMA. He cant fight with his back to the cage against Couture. He'll be on the ground. For a boxer it would be key to keep the fight in the middle of the octogon. That hasnt been his style.
I still hope he KO's Randy tho.

The positive for him is he's not fighting a guy with speed like St. Pierre or Silva, but Randy is a far greater athlete then him, if he sticks around MMA if he loses then Toney Vs. Big Country would be a great fight ;D

I believe he's signed to a one fight deal, so if he loses this fight in an embarrassing fashion its safe to say he is done with UFC lol.
If he does pull this shit off, then I guess Toney would have another opportunity or two to make money with them.

From what i've heard it's a 3 fight deal. I know for sure it's a multi-fight contract.
