Bernard Hopkins tycker inte James Toney ska ge sig in i MMA och möta legender som Randy Couture. Han ger honom så gott som ingen chans att vinna.
Inte heller tror boxningstränaren Freddie Roach att Toney vinner.
No. James is a good friend of mine, but he doesn’t have the ground game, and is not that big a puncher. I think the UFC is using him just to show that he can be beat by one of their guys, and that they have a better sport than we do. They are just using him as a stepping stone. I wish James wouldn’t do it. But boxing is a very important part of UFC. Nobody likes the ground game; everyone wants to see a fight. I do understand that there is a lot to the ground fight, but I am just not a big fan. I think their sport is gearing more toward stand-up rather than ground game. I have worked with most of the greats in UFC, and more are calling me for help. Best part of UFC is when they are striking.
