↵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.
James Toney Says UFC Offer Was Laughable
↵The truth is, this always seemed like it was more money grab than anything. James is quickly fading out of the picture in boxing and figured that he may be able to grab a quick payday or two by fighting in the UFC. Obviously they’re not going to break their payment structure over one guy who has never been a huge draw. It’s also possible that they made a very low offer because they don’t actually want Toney around.
