UFC 118 thoughts…

Yep, so I watched UFC 118 last night. I knew Randy Couture was going to destroy James Toney with no problems. Knew it was going to happen from the very beginning. Randy made it look too easy to beat James Toney down. Randy knew James Toney’s boxing skills. Randy knew how hard Toney punches. Randy did a great job to avoid Toney’s punches. I knew Randy would do his best to avoid them. Randy gave Toney his usual chokehold move that Randy always does.

Hopefully, this will be James Toneys only fight. He needs to get his fat ass back to boxing where he belongs. James doens’t belong in UFC, he can’t handle it. James will get killed if he continues to stay in UFC, so hopefully Dana won’t let him continue on. Watch last night’s fight here.

The other fights were okay, but the best fight of the night was “Florian vs. Maynard”. Although Kenny Florian tried his best to win in his hometown, I was impressed with him last night.

Thought: Maybe James Toney does have what it takes to knock out Randy Couture after all???

When I talk about UFC 118 with other fans, and I ask them, “Who do you think is going to win, James Toney or Randy Couture”? Most answers, were surprisingly James Toney. I’m like what? When I ask them why James Toney, they defend him by saying James Toney is a brutal puncher. He punches really hard, so hard that it will make you feel like you got hit by a truck. Everyone says his punching skills is too powerful.

Maybe James does know more fighting skills than boxing. Maybe he has some martial arts experience under his belt. Never know. He could probably punch Randy out real quick in one round. He is probably training some mixed martial arts moves and skills.

What Randy would have to do to win this fight, he would have to avoid Toney’s punches. If Randy messes up once, and Toney swings at him, it’s done. I’m not much of a boxing fan so I don’t know much about Toney. This will be an interesting fight and an unpredictable one, you just never know who will win this one.

Toney may know boxing only, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to suck in UFC. James Toney is one of the world’s dangerous fighters. I’m certainly am looking forward to this fight.

Thought: James Toney vs. Randy Couture prediction…

I have been following this James Toney vs. Randy Couture feud online, and I must say, it’s even funnier than the Brock Lesnar vs. Shane Carwin feud. Boxing legend James Toney has been signed to UFC to fight Randy Couture. James Toney has been obsessed with wanting to fight Randy Couture for a long time and Dana White gave him what he wanted. James Toney is a BOXER. Not a mixed martial artist. I repeat, a BOXER. Randy Couture has YEARS of mixed martial arts experience.

My opinion, that I think James Toney is challenging the wrong guy. Randy Couture would fucking destroy Toney. Toney might be able to throw a few hard punches at Randy, yes, but the fight will be over quickly once Toney gets a takedown by Couture, and Couture will give him the chokehold to end the fight. Randy Couture is well known for the chokehold. Randy Couture may seem like a nice, friendly and down to earth guy, but in reality, Randy is a monster when it comes to fighting.

Toney thinks he will beat Couture, which is hilarious. Toney thinks he will be successful in UFC. That’s how boxers are, delusional and they have huge egos as well. Why did Dana White agree to sign Toney even if Toney don’t have much MMA experience? I bet the only reason is to help PPV buyrates. Dana didn’t sign Toney because Toney is talented.

So of course, my money on who to win this fight is Randy Couture. Randy is a favorite fighter of mine and looking forward to seeing him fight again.

UFC 118 looks like a great card. I’m looking forward to seeing Edgar vs. Penn again too.
