You may not understand the genius that is James Toney. In fact, some of thought you would never see ‘James Toney’ and ‘Genius’ in the same sentence. It’s alright. Your approval is not a requisite for James Toney to make an extraordinary amount of money in his MMA debut. According to Dan Wetzel of Yahoo! Sports, Toney made an estimated $750,000 to $1,000,000 at UFC 118. Too bad the IRS was literally waiting for him backstage to confiscate his entire fight purse. It’s actually news that we broke in our Sunday Morning Rumor Mill months before it hit the rest of the MMA world, but hey — The Sunday Morning Rumor Mill is so ahead of its time that on most Sundays, it’s actually late. Just think about that.
Now I bet you didn’t know that James Toney plans to return to MMA, and he announced it on Ariel Helwani’s MMA Hour — well, sort of. Check out this clip of an illustrated James Toney being virtually indistinguishable from the real James Toney and get a kick of out Nick Ring on the same imaginary panel as the former IBF super middleweight champion.
