The Grebe Posted May 12, 2010 Author Share Posted May 12, 2010 Tony and Couture? Your kidding right? James Tony? What did Kimbo and Hershal Walker start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jltimm Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 Couture will whoop James Toney. Toney is a boxer and Couture a MMA. Wrestle the boxer and get him off his feet, game over! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 I heard the fight is in jeopardy because james toney is too lazy to make 205 pounds. As a boxer, toney turned pro at 160! He's a great technical boxer, but he never struck me as an athlete. And at his age (even though couture is older) and with his lack of focus, he has 0% chance of being competitive in the UFC.

rushing Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 From what I understand the fight was suppose to happen at the catch weight of 215 cuz he couldn't make 205...but now Toney doesn't think he can even make that so he wants it bumped up to 220. lolBe an interesting fight. I would like to think Couture's MMA would win but Toney is no slouch with his fists and could very well end Couture's mma career on a sour uncontentious note. Couture would have to stay out of Toney's range but yet Randy's best bet would be to take Toney down to the mat which means he would have to get within knockout range. Couture is a master strategist and I hope the fight happens because I am looking forward to watching him execute whatever game plan he comes up with.

mrklean Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 that would be very interesting thats for sure, if he cant make 215 he shouldnt be in the UFC he wanted his shot and now hes getting lazy come on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grebe Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 IMO he shouldn't be in the UFC anyways! It's been awhile, but the last few boxing matches I seen him in, he shouldn't have been in them either! Good in his day as a boxer, but that day came and went a long time ago! Zero chance to do anything in MMA except collect a check for being a side show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Couture takes him to the ground within 30 seconds...wins fight easily via 1st round submission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrklean Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 thats what his plan will be, why would you want to box a boxer???? He will take him down asap and pound him tony will be cut after his second fight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Chuck Liddell is going to KO Rich Franklin! UFC 115 will be in selected movie theaters...might have to check that out. Perhaps Forest Griffin will be next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grebe Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 I think Chucky will get beat by Richy.....I'll bet a box of waxies I found in my bids from last winter....they are the special kind, the black motionless ones. Nice sawdust and a stylized plastic container. Either way it will be interesting.You know, I think Dana got rid of Kimbo to quick...I think people would have liked to see a fight between him and Hershal Walker? I know I would have liked to see it?Some of the fighters that don't have a chance to get a title, are still interesting to watch if they are matched up right and they do have some draw. Chuck and rich for instance....I don't think either of them will hold a title again with all the young lions comming up. Silva owns Franklin and he would probably own Liddell to.Silva ate Griffins lunch with hardly any resistance from Forrest, but Forest and one of the above two would be a good match to watch.

jltimm Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Franklin will beat Lidell IMO. Chuck does stand a good chance of K.Oing Rich, but I don't see it happening. Silva would whoop anyone in the 205 lb division from what I've seen. He made Forrest Griffin look like Forrest Gump in their fight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrklean Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 chucky doesnt have a chance rich is still younger and hasnt taken the beatings as bad as chuck has over the years. I would like to see silva vs jon jones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Grebe Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 That might be a good one? Bones sure looks like he has the tools, but Silva is a force! He handles people with such ease? When he first fought Franklin, I thought he didn't have a chance cause Rich was at the top of his game and he could bring it. What happens? Silva went through him like chit through a tin horn! The second time was even worse! Franklin knew what was in store for him and he still couldn't do a thing about it. I'd like to see dana white fight that guy up in the booth on Deal or No Deal, either him or Howie Mandel, or Jerry Springer! While Dana was wrasslin Howie, I'd be more then happy to wrassel Howies two helpers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted May 15, 2010 Share Posted May 15, 2010 Anderson Silva might be able to beat most light heavyweights, but he certainly wouldn't walk through Sho gun Rua! I think Rua is going to be champ for awhile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mainbutter Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 Silva would whoop anyone in the 205 lb division from what I've seen.Did you see Silva's last fight? Ever since he's been talking about retiring, all his drive to actually perform has gone away. All he wants to do is finish out his contract with a minimum of injuries. He's good enough to win decisions, and unless he has a change of heart I think he's not going to win any more fights by anything except decision.

jltimm Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I think Silva is bored. Unless someone actually challenges his skill level, he won't show what he can do until some unlucky fighter brings it back out of him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrklean Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 with GSP and Silva all they want to do is keep there belts. GSP should have killed hardy but he didnt he put a good beating on him but didnt finish like he could. Same with silva, now its more about keeping the title then goin for a KO, its all about the money the dont give a .... about the fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBMasterAngler Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I give koscheck very little chance of beating GSP, but at least he'll make the fight exciting. I think he'll do better than the 1st fight, but still lose handily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grebe Posted May 19, 2010 Author Share Posted May 19, 2010 Yup. Who do you think is gonna win that match? I want to say Evens, but if Rampage thumps him, it's probably adios amigo? On the other hand, if Evens lands one of them kicks to the kanoggin, it's good night Rampage! Tough one to call but I would pick Evens to win?

CrowRiverRat83 Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 I'm gonna agree and say Evans will win, although I'm pulling for Rampage. It always seems the guy I want to win always loses. Haha. I think Evans is just too fast with his hands and feet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
