James Toney wants a spot on the UFC 123 card cause he's from a city near Detroit. He says he'll sell tons of tickets and wants a good fight. Do you think Dana will have him back in hopes of speeding up ticket sales in the run-down economy of Detroit? He should publicly make it known that if Toney loses he's out for good. Toney made Dana a ton of money while making boxing look bad, it's the least he could do

I'd actually like to see Toney get manhandled again but I doubt he'll be back.

Which heavyweight would do the man handling? I think they should bring Kimbo back from the dead to get in a boxing war with Toney. that'd be a freak show for sure!

I wish Dana makes a open weight fight, and matches him against Soti, Florian, Maia or toquinho (toquinho will probably retire him for good).. .just to embarrase him once again. Only thing that pisses me off, is that while I did have a good laugh after he got his *** subed, hes still laughing at all of us who just made him make 500 k for 1:30 minutes of work. Whos laughing at who right now????

lol seriously. Plus he got a cut of the PPV right? 500k plus what? 1% of 30,000,000? He made well over a million dollars that night.

Dana will sign Toney to a fight before SEP 20.

Have him fight a "stand-up" type of guy, so he can get spanked in that Martial Art as well.

love to see him fight Kongo or CroCop (know it's not possible) just to see what happens when someone throws a big kick at him. Maybe Carwin? Build his confidence back up? (I'm speaking of Carwin)

Yeah that's an idea, give 2 guys known to have previously "pop them thangs" a fight and see whose roid-riddled body would gas first.

One thing is for sure and thats Dana White never giving Houston Alexander the time of day, I would probably say Pat Barry, but he has to walk out like the techno viking.

Wolf, I am not a fan of your ideas right now. Why have Toney fight a low-level MMA striker who he can probably put a beating on and gain his respect back? Kimbo? Houston Alexander? No way. I don't think it will happen because Dana White pretty much said Toney will never fight for the UFC again, the experiment is over.
BUUUT if it did, isn't Shane Carwin available?

They should let Toney fight, he hyped up a UFC fight card more than anyone else has in years.. it's not like UFC champs are anything to get exited about.

Becuase I like seeing competitive fights, and those would be competitve for him. I could see Alexander and Kimbo rushing in trying to take him down and he might actually stand a chance against defending them. Carwin would be a good fight though.

Give him jones at a catch weight or at HW their is already bad blood their and jones has to wait for a couple of months because he is supposed to be fighting the winner of lil nog/bader coming up so we probably wont get that match till january. So why not do this match up. With how fast Randy took out Toney I think Jones would do it even faster

Enough with Toney already MMA fans, it was embarrassing for him to fight MMA in the UFC and you UFC was dumb for doing it.

Unless sales are unusually slow in Detroit, there's no way he's getting booked. Dude is just hungry for more money.
