UFC President Dana White gives his thoughts on the UFC 118 match-up between former UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight champion, Randy “The Natural” Couture and boxing heavyweight champion, James “Light Out” Toney on August 28 in Boston.
Dana White, speaking via MMAWeekly, said:
“We’re going to make an example of James Toney. James Toney’s been an accomplished fighter for many years, and he’s training in mixed martial arts now. James Toney’s a real fighter. Listen, James and I go back and forth, and he’s mad at me right now, and he’s going to be even more pissed off after what I just said. The reality is, I am not so delusional that I don’t think anything can happen when two big guys get in there and start throwing punches. He’s going to try to knock out Randy Couture that night. It’s become this whole UFC vs. boxing thing. I said it before, and I’ll say it again, always yapping about people who do ‘freak shows,’ I’m doing one.”
