Randy Couture tror inte det finns en chans att han sätter MMA i riskzon i ett möte med James Toney. Toney däremot, som tycker boxning är den ultimata sporten, har nog en helt annan tankeställning kring sitt möte. ”Captain America” förklarar själv:
There’s no risk. I don’t understand why people keep saying that. How is it a risk? This is a fight that garners a whole bunch of eyes from the boxing world as well as other areas and can bring new fans over to MMA.
James Toney poses all kinds of problems. There’s a lot of unknowns coming into this fight, not just for him, but for me as well. Look at what he’s accomplished in the sport of boxing, some of the names he’s beaten. He’s a dangerous opponent and I think an interesting opponent. The bottom line is there’s a lot more going on in this sport than whether I win or lose.
