Props :FightHype Quoteworthy: “Randy Couture, he respects my game like I respect his game. He’s the best at what he do in his sport; I’m the best at what I do in my sport. We gonna see who has the better style and everybody know it’s James Toney. If he tries to throw blow for blow with [...] The reaction on the James Toney signing has been mixed in the United States. Many of you think, it’s a good promotional move and if matched correctly Toney has a shot to do a little damage. Matched incorrectly, against a Randy Couture, and the old boxer may get destroyed and embarrassed because of a lack [...] Props:MMAPrime.tv Quoteworthy: “At some point Fedor’s going to have to step up and be willing to fight top level guys again. I don’t know what’s going on with him or why he’s not willing to do that and certainly (Fabricio) Werdum is one of those guys he’s going to have to face to be considered a top [...] Props:Wisconsin Combat Sports Quoteworthy: “Several boxers have stepped up and said that we are no good at striking and they would knock us out, and James Toney is no different. He’s the first one that is willing to step up and put his money where is mouth is though, and I’d love to welcome him into MMA. [...] Props: UOL Esporte Quoteworthy: “I’m ready for all situations. When you face a good opponent who fights standing and on the mat you must be ready for everything. He’s a very good wrestler besides having an excellent conditioning. In this aspect I’m also feeling very well. I think my ground game is better than his and I [...] Now this is getting frustrating. Kudos to the UFC for trying expand internationally but the shakiness of the news cycle around UFC 110 in Australia is proving this is still a very big world. It came down yesterday that Mirko “Cro Cop” Filipovic’s fight against Ben Rothwell could be down the drain. That was until [...] “I really don’t care too much for them, and I don’t think they care too much for me (Dana White and the UFC ownership group)…. They’ve got their guys they want to push, guys they want to market. Randy Couture, Brock Lesnar and Frank Mir are the guys they want to push and market. The [...] At 46 years old, UFC Hall-of-Famer Randy Couture continues to defy the odds each time he steps into the cage. Couture fought for the third time in less than six months – one of the busiest stretches of his illustrious career – when he defeated Mark Coleman at this past weekend’s UFC 109 event. But there’s no [...] Injuries tore apart the UFC’s star-studded roster over the last eight weeks. It left the promotion with pay-per-view shows built more on depth over star power. After UFC 109, when asked about the fans complaining about PPV prices and value, White flipped his lid: “UFC fans are spoiled,” White explained that every UFC PPV can’t be [...] Props: MMA Fighting Quoteworthy: “We’ve got some good guys like usual, but this season there are some that I just know are going to bereallygood. The thing that reminds me of that first season is we’ve got so many guys who you can see that they’ve got what it takes. What’s so much different is that the [...] The man is persistent. James Toney crashed the postfight press conference after UFC 108 to get some face time and force a sit down with Dana White. Apparently White wasn’t willing to open the vault for a guy who holds the prestigious “IBA” boxing heavyweight title. Toney to the UFC is dead, right? Not quite. Toney [...] All 13 fighters who underwent drug testing at this past weekend’s UFC 109 event tested clean for performance-enhancing drugs and recreational/drugs of abuse. Nevada State Athletic Commission Executive Director Keith Kizer today e-mailed the drug-testing results to MMAjunkie.com. UFC 109 took place Feb. 6 at the Mandalay Bay Events in Las Vegas. |
