Hes right!
Have him fight in the Octagon. He will get owned.
Nah he won’t… that only happens to fat dudes out of their prime just in it for a paycheck.
Omar is right and I bet he would knock any of those 155 pound MMA fighters out cold!
Omar is not right, he’s a moron just like you, so no wonder you agree with him.
Is your simplistic brain even capable of comprehending the differences between Toney fighting in an MMA match, and Edgar fighting in a boxing match? One is not even comparible to the other.
When Toney entered into his MMA match, he was not handicapped at all… He was able to fully use his biggest assets. Edgar fighting in a boxing match however, is like comparing apples to oranges, as Edgar would be severely handicapped, having his biggest strength taken away from him.
Actually what Omar said (which is what you agree with) is exactly the opposite of reality. It actually shows how much of a pussy Omar is, because he knows the only way he can win is by taking away his opponents biggest strength by default. The MMA match Toney was in did not do that, but rather started both fighters of equally, with no advantage going to either fighter.
Forget MMA moron, Edgar entering a boxing match with Omar would be the equivilent of Omar entering a wrestling match with Edgar. Boxing fans/boxers have such warped minds, and are blinded by their own bias.
By the way, arguing with me is futile, as a logical rebuttal does not exist, nor is there even the potental of one coming into existance.
the butt hurt is strong. & i bet the dumbest grappler in 125 can sub any boxers. no need for 155, a 125 lb’er is more than enough. now, go punch with your pillow gloves.
Pillow gloves? Notice Couture didn’t even stand for one second against a past prime James Toney EVEN USING LEG KICKS AND ALL THAT DIRTY BOXING STUFF COUTURE WAS TALKING ABOUT. No, he dived at his feet in the first 5 seconds of the fight.
Why not throw any kicks or try to do SOMETHING against this dumb pillow glove guy?
Nah just hump him.
STFU punchdrunk fool. Stay with boxing then it’s simple as that
A former multi-time boxing champion with almost 100 fights got his ass beat by guy who is 47 and 16-8 in the UFC. Oh yeah boxing is the best!…in a boxing match. For real or anythign involving more than fists boxing sucks balls. Enough said.
James Toney is not even an elite fighter hes on his way down he showed he had balls by taking on that fight…i dont see any mma fighters stepping up to fight anyone in boxing because they know they would lose
Vitor belfort did and its reported that he would like to test his boxing against james toney in a ring. Aleksander emelianenko has pro boxing fight which ended Draw.
Kimbo(simba) slice is gonna debut at pro boxing so does andrei arlovski. Anderson silva has pro boxing experience and wants to fight roy jones jr but his contract with UFC does not allow it, but after the contract Silva tries his hands against Roy. Alistair overeem has k-1 kickboxing experience therefore i think he would do fine in boxing.
If you still think JUST HANDS are enough watch mariusz pudzianowski vs butterbean MMA. mariusz is world strongest man and has SOOO little experience in mma and still beats up butterbean, thou i admit that butterbean would dominate him in boxing match but WHO CARES!!! if they would meet on the street the outcome would be same how it was in their mma match.
Thanks and have a fun day sir.
Let it go…There is a place for boxing fans and mma fans. As well as those of us who like to be both.
Stay with boxing Omar cause you cant handle to fight in the cage!!
You will get submitted under a minute or KO’d with a highkick.
Even in K-1 you boxers get your asses kicked!!
The only Boxers that have been Koed in k-1 have been 20 years past their prime…unlike your pal Tim Sylvia was champ just 4 fights before he was koed by a retired Boxer. And K-1 strikers are WAY better strikers than MMA guys.
Omar you’re pathetic. If you think that boxing would prevail mma in a real fight then I think I would beat you. Battle it out like men you say. So you’re a man if you knock someone out, but a pussy if you get a choke, squeeze it in tight, embarrasing you’re opponent until he is force to tap and give up? It is alot more humiliating to get submitted, than to get KTFO.
Honestly in a real fight, it would be really artificial to only use boxing.
You know ´nothing about mma
WAAAAAA! Boxing fans mad Toney lost in a REAL fight. WAAAAAA! How about Henry getting smashed in the UFC. Boxing is boxing and UFC is real fighting.
Dear Omar,
I challenge you to a fight. Not a boxing match…not a mma match, but a fight. Lets see whose training prevails.
Best Regards,
Eric Elliott
man you are just a joke!! why wont you man up and fight! i weight 155 and whenever you are ready to get your ass whooped just let me know and we can set up a match whenever you want punk!!
The problem with your logic is that mma athletes aren’t talking shit about boxing, so why should they step into a boxing ring and box? We concede that a boxer will win a straight boxing match, but in totality…the boxer would/will/does get his ass handed to him. This was demonstrated in the 70′s with Ali, in 1993 with Art Jimmerson and and now in 2010 with Toney. In the case of some arrogant, uninformed, unenlightened idiots, history just keeps on repeating itself. Peace.
I already said it on his Facebook… if he wants a boxing match with an MMA fighter he needs to Find Yves Edwards with American Top Team… He is without a doubt one of the quickest and fastest strikers to fight in the UFC at 155.
we would love to challenge you on the next Legacy card here in Houston, it is in Nov. You would be fighting Daniel Pineda who is usually a 145lb fighter so you should have no problem destroying him with your “boxing”.

I just posted a blog about this very topic…
“The debate between boxing fans and MMA fans over whose sport is the superior combat sport has raged on for years now. It developed over time as MMA started to make its way into the main stream of the world of sports, and particularly since MMA started stealing fans (such as myself) away from boxing. I submit to you that all of the debate after all of these years has been a complete waste of time.
To compare boxing to mixed martial arts really isn’t fair to boxing. The two sports are apples and oranges as far as comparisons go. Comparing boxing to MMA would be equivalent to comparing running to basketball. Running is a single component (or skill) in the complex game of basketball. Just because one can run fast doesn’t mean…”

Quite honestly, Omar doesn’t even have the credentials to be in the Octagon. It would be a blow to the UFC’s reputation to even try to get Omar in there. He wouldn’t even make the prelims!
Omar – Use your skills against an MMA Fighter skills and lets see who wins. Do it in the cage. Anything goes. Oh, they allow punching on the ground too! I bet you’d like that.
Omar you are a joke. Y0u have been offered a fight for Legacy Fighting Championship and all of a sudden you disappear. I know Pineada and Elliot and both those guys would rip your head off in a cage fight. And if you want to come up to 185 I’d love to jump in the cage with you.
The Bison
You want to hear a joke? Audley Harrison out of anyone in the entire world gets to fight David Haye for the Championship. Boxing is the joke here, its dying and the fans can’t handle it
how come no one talks about when ray mercer in his mma debut beat the fuck out a top mma dude? how omce no one talks about that
because tim sylvia isnt a top mma dude
Because just like Timmy said, Sylvia “IS NOT” a top MMA dude, as he was rejected by the UFC, and would get his ass beat by numerous MMA fighters. Again, the bias of boxers/boxing fans, along with their stupidity, is to the point of being comical.
Also, even more importantly than that (Because even many amateur MMA fighters could annihilate Mercer, as was proven by Kimbo “the street fighter” Slice), is the fact that due to Mercer’s crying snivveling, and whining, Sylvia didn’t fight an MMA match with him, but rather chose to stand up with Mercer to make him happy, so it was a boxing match, not an MMA match, which means that it wasnt’ a real fight. Sylvia would beat mercer every time they fought if he fought his own game, rather than trying to make the cry baby happy.
Get your facts straight, and take off the blinders.
And also read my intelligent response directed at the moron up above… Here, I’ll copy and paste it for you so that you don’t have to search for it.
“Omar is not right, he’s a moron just like you, so no wonder you agree with him.

And James Toney is a top boxer? James Toney struggled with an absolute bum in his last fight. his prime was 1995!
tim Sylvia was always a stand up fighter..he got his ass knocked out because I remember him boasting how he had the best hands in the ufc at one point. Don’t be telling me UFC is doing better, their damn champ was Lesnar for a while – from WWE. Ray Mercer is over 50 years old and he’s actually adapting quite well too MMA. He lost too Kimbo in his first fighter ever, not being used too the ground, but since then he’s improved. He’s 50 years old.
James Toney was not only old but he’s a fat middle weight, standing around 5’10…he’s probably only GSP size if he wasn’t fat.
What you people forget is MMA IS boxing, its shit boxing with wrestling allowed. You fools think that MMA fighters have some magical advantage, but really – the only ones that do are the adept wrestlers. Any things goes in MMA and whats why Tim Sylvia got his ass koed.
