- Ariel Helwani hears from James Toney on how UFC fighters are "bums" and how Dana White is "scared". This interview would eventually lead to Toney fighting Randy Couture in the UFC.
That didn't end well.

"He's a mamma's boy, He's gay"
Ariel: "Okay"
classic
haha
Haha
"And hes not a good friend"
Favourite fighter of all time. Supreme confidence even if he was deluded.
Throwback all the way we won’t see anything like James ever again
Boxer not fighter
@@heveyweightheveyweight5399 Fighter.
@@heveyweightheveyweight5399 what you got against boxing
@@heveyweightheveyweight5399 boxing is fighting, don't believe me, step in there with a seasoned professional and see how " not fighting" it is
This is ariel's best interview of all time
James Toney was not given enough credit for stepping in to the octagon.
Lpool FC - Thats because he ran his fuckin mouth, talking all kinds of shit and disrespecting the sport of MMA, and then he got WHOOPED in under 2 minutes, and never fought in MMA again.
And he STILL runs his mouth after losing. He says "Randy Couture was scared to death" blah blah blah, mur mur mur.
He doesnt deserve respect. You gotta give respect to get it.
Hes more of bitch than Deontay Wilder. And maybe even less intelligent. MAYBE. Wilder is pretty fuckin dumb.
James Toney made good money for playing mma
@@shanestewart9197 You would never keep that energy with them in person, keep typing.
@@TSupraLano Is he wrong though?
@@Rembrandtswagster James lost to Randy. Everything else is rubbish 🗑
" a legend with 12 losses, aint that a bitch?" LOL. Toney is hilarious.
Bro you said this 12 years ago are u still alive
@@noicemate9111 no
I feel sorry for Toney. Putting this guy in the octagon with Randy is like dropping a rat in a cage with a python. Ground and pound TKO in the first round.
He wouldn't take lower fighters, he just said that.
@@thememaster7so they couldn’t find him one striker? Even if he got kod right away it would be better than getting taken down like that
@@noicemate9111it’s called mma not “boxing with 4 oz gloves”
@@mandoso7222 don’t care it was already a gimmick they should’ve just made it entertaining with kicks and elbows
oh my god this is gold
If this Was in 2019 Would Be Viral 😂😂
@opugilist No one here is bringing up politics except you. Whining like our President does (victim complex).
Truth
"Only freak show is between my legs." 😂😂😂
Elite line
Been looking for this for so long
I wish James Toney had atleast 1 more ufc fight
And got fucked up
Didn't to much in his first one except get taken down and choked out
Should've fought Quentina "Asshole" Jackson.
@@Redman092000 exactly we want to see him get humiliated
James toney got paid good money 💵 in the UFC good job James
Damn this was a funny ass interview. Wish he fought chuck liddell instead who is more of a stand up warrior.
Yeah it was a terrible match-up for Toney. Pretty sure Dana made sure he was set up to look as bad as possible.
Most likely Chuck Liddell would have body kicked him a few times and KOd him. Would have looked even worse.
@@RoonVonBismarck would not have looked worse lmfao stop
He would fight Liddell for the brain damage trophy.
To go toe to toe with James would have been the worst mistake of liddells career
"What u wanna take it home with u"? James Toney is too funny
"Simba, I mean Kimbo" :D
Simba Slice 🤣
🤣
"The only freak show I got is between my legs." -- James Toney
James Toney is THE FUNNIEST GUY EVER!!!
Ah man I'm watching this in stitches. The slur that's almost another language. The comedy timing. The outrageous actions.
When he stood up to the interviewer and said "what you gonna do about it?"
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😭💯
" Give us your thought process."
"Well I'm fricking broke and I have 2 brain cells left, so I thought I'd trade one in for a short payday "
Speech problem, don’t mean he got 2 brain cells. He’s always been pretty quick. Maybe u got 2 brain cells
Oddly, its the most coherent interview with Tony i've heard.
Uve not heard many
English subtitles in the future, please.
I just found out.
Ariel, I LOVE your interviews. Well done! Great questions and a great sense of humor.
3:22 "I wanna fight the best" *points at Brock Lesnar*
“David haye, he gay” 💀🤣
I've watched this interview a few times now. It's friggin hilarious.
"only freak show i got is between my legs" that was smooth
This is one of the best interviews by Ariel. Gold!
How can you not love James Toney? Pure entertainment!
toney vs liddell would be a much better fight. boxer against kickboxer!!!!!
would have been*
Chuck gets koed easy
Liddell was a wrestler first. Wouldn't be pretty.
@@Cg-ru3eh lmao, you dumbass, if both in prime..chuck would murder him in a mma cage.
@@blobber51 in standup, James would fuck Liddel up. Fucking stupid mma fans
best interview ever!
Epic interview.
"I don't care about getting signed by anybody, I'm James Tony," Well said James.
James lights out Toney is a legend
Gotta love this ariel interview
James toney lasted longer than Aldo did with McGregor 🥴
Ahahaha when he called david hayes gay! 😂😂😂😂😂
The subtitles for when Toney talks are halarious XD respect to James Toney though, an all time great
Lmao thanks for this had to turn them on.
What a legend!
3:27 Did Toney seriously point at Lesnar's poster lamenting not being able to fight him because Brock was ill? Holy Shizzballs. Then he immediately followed up and said he wanted to fight Chuck Liddell "who was sitting there all scared and nervous"?
As if.
I wish so much that he could have fought Lesnar. That would have been extremely entertaining... For about 9 seconds
Ariel Helwani is my favourite mma interviewer by far. And James Toney is one of the funniest guys he has interviewed.
"i dunno jiu jitsu i dunno wrestling, i just know how to fight!"
well apparently not...u kinda need to know either of those to go with an MMA fighter...
lost to the Legend. "The Natural"
James Toney’s responses are classic. He never gets upset with interviewer in a violent manner! 😂 I would have!
Credits to you Ari. I'm a reporter too, and this guy was...not an easy interview. You adjusted to him impressively.
lol vintage helwani... this back in the daaaaaaaaaay
3:41 tbh, I think Kimbo would have been a much closer matchup
this interview is hillarious.
Classic interview. James was so irritated with Ariel💯🤣🔥
legendary mma interview... period ! loool
"i work out wit my dad"
When Toney talks is the only time when youtube's close captioning function is actually spot on.
" this is that spot right here; this is where we are doing the interview my man"
hahahah ariel you tha man.
What language does Toney speak?
Nash Doran He speaks brain damage...
CTE
His routine was 12 rounds of sparring everyday
English it varies by location.
🤣😂
Every James Toney interview is hilariously entertaining. Even more so than Mike Tyson's or any other legendary trashtalker like Muhammed Ali.
This guy is clinically insane and will probably street fight with anyone.
Why isn’t this interview not talked about more??? This is 1 million + views material here lol !!
Ariel im gunna need you to re upload this with subtitles.
last 30 seconds are epic :D all day!
I'm rewatching interviews, countdown and weigh-ins to get the whole experience of James Toney getting his ego broken 💀
Damn never knew James trained with a solid team for this fight , props to James the only boxer with big enough balls to step in the cage
Respect
@Kurplutzo hahaha, you actually made me laugh outloud cuz!! good job!!
"I'm coming to the UFC to prove that boxing alone doesn't cut it in MMA." -- James Toney 😆
Did he say that? Time stamp?
And mma fighters getting beat by CZcamsrs what a strange world
@@albertoarechiga8123Retired MMA fighters**
Put those CZcamsrs in the octagon against MMA rookies or unranked fighters, and that fight will still end in less than a minute.
Lol Couture basically put Toney to sleep
He was scared as fuck to even exchange 1ce.. Shot right for the takedown.. James woulda knocked that nigga the fuck out
+Max Ruthless Instead he was choked silly.
cowards take it to the ground, go to any hood the fight is just fists and what usually happens is the bitch that is losing loses his composure grabs kicks tackles and so on.. common knowledge... real street fights aint shit.
youre a coward, scared to fight like a man on your feet, gotta go to the ground like a little girl, scared to get hit. fuckn lame.
Tum Bronson So your argument against going to the ground is to invoke what happens when people who don't really know how to fight, fight. k
The fucking smirk on Ariel's face, he was so confident (much like all of us) about Toney getting killed.
Electronic91 i think he's laughing at toneys english skills
they need to put subtitles
only freakshow i got is between my legs... classic toney
Some MMA fans keep saying how superior UFC is and bla bla bla. keep in mind that UFC exists thanks to japanese judo and jiu-jiutsu, ancient wrestling, boxing, Muai thai and many other arts that were created centuries ago. nothing was created in MMA. choking and grappling is very old people. I know there is a new concept, but people discuss ground fighting and other old techniques, as if these were discovered by the gracie family or danna white. get real people.
My point is that many MMA fans (especially younger) think a neck choke or a low kicks are only well performed by MMA fighters. Saying that old martial arts are useless compared to UFC, when everything came from those ancient arts. I practice judo and did amateur boxing for a few years and I keep respect for both sports. Go to a muai Thai or kick boxing videos, and there are always people saying "those guys will be murdered in UFC".... I hope these morons know where low kicks and punch combinations came from. I like the MMA concept, but I rather watch a boxing fight any day. Just my personal opinion.
I know they boxer or muai Thai guy are more likely to get a ground beating in UFC, but I'm just saying that thanks to jiujitsu, judo and wresting, MMA fighters can take down the boxer or the kick boxer. A pure judoka or wrestler can take a boxer o karate practitioner down anytime. Nothing new.
I understand your point, but you did not understand mine. By the way, in judo you can pin, choke or break anybody's arm. MMA is great, because incorporates all kind of techniques, but that's not what im talking about. My comment is more about the MMA fans rather than the fighting art itself.
only thing mma created is a majority percentage of ignorant fans and jobs. I salute you sir for your intelligence.
This video was a riot! Couldnt stop laughing
ArielHelwani, YOU the MAN! I have been a reporter on radio and television and I have to say you are the BEST, GUTsiest reporter I have seen.
You kept on top of the subject and didn't let Toney get away with anything. You did your research and were prepared. And then when the interview "ended" you kept it alive. Getting right on his shoulder.
On a side note, Toney has had brain damage. This is how boxers talk who have taken too much punishment and have suffered irreversible brain damage .
Talkin shit n gets choked out in 15 seconds by a guy he says is not a legend and shouldn't be a hall of Famer. Randy was 12 years past his prime and still made it look easy. Brock would've destroyed James lmao. Dana should have put him against Cain Velasquez, a boxer getting knocked out in the ufc would've been great!
james tony would have beat couture in stand up
@@wcam9847 this is mma, he ran his mouth and disrespected a legend and pioneer of the sport the got beat easily. Randy is a grappler not a boxer, he wouldn't beat Cain Velasquez in stand or many others in the UFC. He is 1 dimensional and knew he had no chance which is why he opted out of the rest of his contract
@@DougSalyers If he got KO'd standing by Cain or anyone else it would have to be by kicks or knees. He wasnt well rounded enough for MMA but he had one of the best boxing skillsets ever and one of the best chins ever. The guy fought as low as 160lbs and all the way up to HW as a boxer, imagine Khabib fighting Ngannou.
What is Toney even saying?
+Michael Phillips is he even saying english?LOL
+Qilu Xie I have to listen hard, just to barely hear him. Lmao.
+Michael Phillips These boxers take so much brain damage its sad. You see then like this
***** well u know, they took too much punches on the head and countless concussions
Turning on the subtitles doesn't exactly work either haha
Best interview ever 🤣😂😃😄😅😁😀😂🤣
@RandomMan4Life
Agreed.
I don't think this is brain damage. A lot of black people talk like this. They think it's cool or something.
don't start. he's punch drunk, you're just trying to start shit.
ya i can literally link 10 non boxers in under a minute im certain
thats the voice of a man who has had his jaw busted one too many times. has nothing to do with brain damage, has nothing to do with race.
I think its both, indeed some black people do seem to think its cool to speak as if you have mild learning difficulties, but this seems even worse than the average wannabe.
AndIm JustFerocious ur dumb he been talking like that he has a stutter idiot
He sounds very punch drunk. :(
In UFC they grab you by your ankle and never let go.
I came to this interview to try out closed captioning. Shit is funny as.
take the peanut butter out of your mouth
James' head probably hurts from all the questions. hahahaha.
need subtitles for James Toney
I need English subtitles for James Toney... :P
l0l laughed my ass off, nice spotting lmao
This is a fucking classic interview.
Couldnt say it any better!
jesus christ i laughed this whole interview its like watching a scen out of "friday"
'im telling you all day what you gonna do about it' this guy should be in ufc hall of fame
It's like a carpenter doing your plumbing, Its going to end in tears😎
Ariel is allll class man not intimidated in the slightest and keeps composed the whole time
Damnit Ariel is the best interviewer on the planet.
3:30 Simba, I mean Kimbo or whoever he is hahahah James Toney always cracks me up
Iowa lot was Botha...famous quote by Tony. Lol
James is an entertainer, he entertains me no matter WHAT he says :)
damn..put the subtitles on
James Toney is one of those guys that just makes you laugh XD.
I never even knew about that function, and now I'm checking it out, and it's hilarious. lol - thanks, Rolioface. And remember, "there was a gross blue flies in the army's secretion people."
~James Toney
come on over here! come on over here! come on over here, I am doing an interview from here! lol epic!
i love how u can hear him snort from his nose when hes talking LOL
Awe man, James Toney is Great, he so funny.
At least Toney stood up for what he believed in.
James Toney and Chuck Liddell should be commentators for UFC =P
Now I know how I sound when I talk with a mouthful of sawdust....
None such a satisfying fight as this one.
@CenationTroop You made a valid point, I was talking about all around fighting, but you're right a lot of MMA fighters aren't as good at striking as some boxers are. But your comment led me to draw another conclusion: these are two different sports, So it's hard to pick a good fight pitting them against one another. peace.
I want to start seeing 2 v 2 or tagteam matches in the ufc.
go to wwe where they have fake fighting and gtfo pls out of mma becouse your fake also
because*
Kathleen Fulton That would be dope actually gang fights in the ring lmao
Kathleen Fulton they have mma group fights in russian check them out
Lol watch this with closed captions.
it was insanely unrealistic to think that he would have a chance in a MMA fight. I believe that a UFC fighter a lot worse than Randy would have still won against this guy
