It was a last minute move by spike to show it. It should be on tonight and On Demand (comcast) by Thursday morning.

I love the fact that they used subtitles for Toney.

by GetYourHeadStomps on Aug 23, 2010 7:29 PM EDT reply actions  

Interesting

About the 1:10 mark it looks like someone had an underhook clinch on Toney and he collapsed on top of them. Its real quick but you can pause it and see real well.

It's not just you

He may have been tired out in that part, but he definitely didn’t look sharp with those punches.

it's there, even if it doesn't say so

UFC tweet says Countdown was last minute addition which is why TV guides aren’t showing it.

Best bit: the need for subtitles when Toney is speaking.

The shit this guy comes up with is hilarious.

He couldn’t even breathe while training… I think he is going to gas in the cage and gas fast. “I’m as real as they get.” — Thank God they included subtitles, I would’ve never understood that.

Does anybody see that Toney when hitting pads has no regaurd for keeping his chin tucked and hands up? Kind?a weird for a boxer even if its just hitting pads. muscle memory does exist and its important to train like you fight. What IF (not likely) Randy shocks the work and strikes first ala Tim Silvia? oh well a guy can dream right
