James Tony Doesn't like Dana White's Offer to fight in UFC

Posted By BennyTruman MMA News

James Toney came out on twitter and talked about the offer that Dana White gave him. After the recent UFC event, Dana White and James Toney sat down to talk about him joining the UFC. After the shit down Dana than offered James Toney a contract and here is what Toney had to say:

"Dana White's first offer was a joke and that let's me know he really don't want to do this."

"I know that [purses in MMA aren't as big as in boxing], but this offer was laughable. That's the reason I wanted the camera guy in the room with us when I sat down with Dana, so the fans would know that I was serious and if it didn't happen, it wasn't because of me."

Yeah well he runs the UFC so what do you expect... Some people don't like him, but I imagine if Tony is 31 and not 41, he would get an offer...

I say pay him and get him in there. Toneys old and would probubly get his ass handed to him and maybe an arm too, but hes a dog and I would for sure pay to see him get in the cage. He might **** around and knock a few people out you never know.

DANA WHITE IS A PUSSY. HE ACTS LIKE HE'S TOUGH, LET'S SEE HIM FIGHT. LIKE TOM ATENCIO. HERSCHEL WALKER. PEOPLE WHO LOVE THE SPORT. JAMES TONEY HAS NO BUSINESS IN UFC ANYWAYS UNTIL HE GETS IN A REAL GYM LIKE HERSCHEL DID AND TRAINS HARD FOR 8 WEEKS, BUT DANA WHITE IS A BIG PUSSY.

Toney isn't for real
Just like so many other boxers, Toney likes to say the words "mixed martial arts" because it gets people to google a boxer again, but the truth is that James doesn't want to be in MMA for real, he probably expects a 250K a fight payout minimum, and that's what Chuck Liddell and those guys make. James Toney is a carnival act fight, and he should go fight Conseco in some joke Japanese promotion. However, I'd almost like to see Dana pay him 15K with a 1 Million dollar win bonus, cuz he'd never get it.

Dana knows real MMA fans don't want circus bullshit, that's why he made Kimbo wait. I'm friends with Kimbo, and he know why. Dana knows better than to turn his legitimate sport into a damn circus act for retired boxers.
