Dana White: “I want to see James Toney get smashed”
UFC President Dana White is struggling to show his impartial side heading in to this weekend’s UFC 118 event where “Hall of Famer”, Randy Couture will take on heavyweight boxing champion, James “Light’s Out” Toney.
Speaking via Sports Radio Interviews Dana said:
“Well, Toney has gotten in the best shape he’s ever been in in about I don’t know how many years. He’s taken this a lot more seriously than he has his boxing career. One of the things with these boxers they have been doing it since they were little kids and how much can they learn? They start to get bored or lazy or whatever you wanna call it. So they don’t train as hard. Toney has taken this serious. He’s gotten in the best shape he’s been in in years and this is going to be a very interesting fight.”
“Anything can happen when two good guys go in there and start throwing punches, scrapping, and fighting. Anything can happen, but James Toney has knockout power in both hands, he’s been one of the best and he’s fought the best forever. Randy Couture has great wrestling and if you break down stats, James Toney doesn’t have as many tools as Randy Couture has so Couture should win the fight. James Toney has talked so much smack I want to see him get smashed in this fight.”
The two men will square off in the com-main event of the evening, with this fight stealing much of the attention away from the nights lightweight title rematch between Frankie Edgar and B.J. Penn.
In one of his pre-fight interviews shown below, Toney has responded stating that he will “Feed Couture’s glove to Dana” after he wins the fight. He has also said in the past that he will knock Dana out.
