Re: kimbo slice
Toney said he wanted to welcome Kimbo to Boxing! He called out Kimbo and Danny Green, he said it would be like taking candy from a baby and rightly so.
Tyson is well and truely retired theres 0 chance of seeing him fight again.
Toney will probabally get a bigger fight than Kimbo though, he would be an Ideal opponent for Haye for example, he is a step up from Ruiz or Fraudley.
I wouldnt mind seeing Toney batter Kimbo though... Kimbo knew better than to stand with Mercer who is WAY past his best and on a much lower level than Toney, Kimbo will duck him for sure.

Re: kimbo slice
Kimbo doesn't deserve to be in a boxing ring with Toney, having said that I wouldn't mind seeing Toney batter him.

Re: kimbo slice
Kimbo has no fear and for despite the Petruzelli fight, his chin isn't all that bad. He'll go toe-to-toe with anyone.

Re: kimbo slice
Kimbo wants to fight Toney...
http://www.mmafighting.com/2010/09/01/kimbo-slice-open-to-fighting-james-toney-not-impressed-with-his/Leading up to UFC 118, James Toney told anyone who wanted to listen that he asked to fight Kimbo Slice (after his first request of facing Brock Lesnar was turned down) in his Octagon debut. Unfortunately for him, the organization had different plans and matched the boxing champion against Randy Couture.
You all know how that turned out for "Lights Out."
But when Slice stopped by Monday's edition of The MMA Hour, he said he had never been offered a fight against Toney, but was certainly open to the idea.
"I never heard anything about me fighting James Toney, but you know, like I said, again, I'll fight anybody, man. C'mon, everybody knows that about me from my street-fighting days. Put anybody in front of me, train me to be the best, I'll fight the best. That's one thing about Kimbo Slice that everybody knows."
Slice has teamed up with his old MMA promoters, Gary and Jared Shaw, to try his hand at boxing. Jared Shaw recently told MMA Fighting that he hopes to see Slice make his "Sweet Science" debut later this year.
As for Toney's MMA debut, Slice said he was surprised at how poorly Toney performed against Couture.
"Yeah, kinda. I was [surprised]. I would have sprawled out," Slice said while chuckling.
Despite his lackluster MMA debut, Toney still believes he can be a force in the UFC, and there's no question that he would take an opportunity to fight the man he calls "Simba" Slice.
Oh, and if you are wondering if that nickname bothers Slice, it doesn't.
"No, it don't bother me, man. That sh-- don't bother me. I'm a grown man.
"That's how they do it. That's part of the game. They can talk sh-- all they want to, but when we face-to-face, they ain't going to do that. I'm not a sh---talker. Never have been, never will be."

Re: kimbo slice
this would be a boxing match right as kimbo has signed a deal to start to box professionally toney would absolutely murder him in one round i doubt any commision would let this fight go ahead. I actually think kimbo would beat toney in an mma fight all he has to do is not stand with toney and go for a takedown im nearly sure he would get it and pound on him for 3 rounds
