James Toney Would Like To Welcome Kimbo Slice To Boxing

Quote :

Heavyweight Boxing champion, James Toney has said that he would be willing to welcome former UFC Heavyweight, Kimbo Slice to Boxing after Toney was defeated by Randy Couture at UFC 118.

Speaking via FightHype.com, Toney said:
“Wake yo ass up. I heard Gary Shaw was talking shit about me. Tell Gary Shaw I’m down to fight Danny Green or welcome Kimbo to boxing.”

“It would have been like taking candy from a baby for me to fight him [Kimbo Slice] with 4 ounce gloves on. But now, since his promoter wants to talk shit about me, I will gladly welcome him into boxing. I fought a MMA legend in my first MMA bout, so now he can fight a legend in his first pro boxing bout. Furthermore, he is advising Danny Green and I’ve always wanted to see what he can do without the headgear on because I damn near killed him with it on.”

Kimbo and Toney should sign a 2-fight deal. 1 boxing fight, 1 MMA fight. Just to see which of the now useless fighters is better at each sport

The pathetic thing is, Toney would probably kick Kimbo's ass in MMA and Boxing.

Kimbo should have gone into boxing instead of MMA, it suits him more. But the money was in the MMA. Couldn't believe how easily he got beat in MMA, but still boxing he could have been better at as it was more up his alley. If he was to fight Toney, I'd give it Toney just because of experiance.

He looked pathetic in MMA.
