JAMES TONEY: "TONY THOMPSON...YOU SOFTER THAN A PIECE OF CUPCAKE"

By Percy Crawford | March 16, 2010
JAMES TONEY:

"I heard old Roger Rabbit Tony Thompson talking shit. Him and his people running their mouth saying they ain't going to be no more Mr. Nice Guy, but let me tell you something, first and foremost, that's like saying a gay guy is going to go straight; that ain't going to happen. Tony Thompson is always going to be a nice guy…you barking up the wrong tree. If you want to fight me, be prepared to die because you ain't ready to do that shit. Stop talking about stuff that you ain't because you ain't hard; you softer than a piece of cupcake. Get our promoter Dan Goossen to put the money up and I will whoop your ass, I promise you that. Then you can go to DC, or wherever you from, drive a cab and have a good life. I'm knocking him out. I told you, I'm knocking him out. I got a bounty on everybody's head out there. It ain't no more playing around! I ain't playing," stated future Hall of Famer and IBA heavyweight champion James "Lights Out" Toney, who contacted FightHype.com to respond to recent comments made by Tony Thompson in a press release. Toney made it clear that he's more than willing to hand Thompson another loss once their mutual promoter, Dan Goossen, is ready to "quit playing games." Check out what he had to say!

PC: Tony Thompson had your name on a list of guys he wants to mix it up with. You read the press release and I know you want to address it.

JT: Yeah, I heard old Roger Rabbit Tony Thompson talking shit. Him and his people running their mouth saying they ain't going to be no more Mr. Nice Guy, but let me tell you something, first and foremost, that's like saying a gay guy is going to go straight; that ain't going to happen. Tony Thompson is always going to be a nice guy. I don't give a fuck where he from. Now if you want to fight me, all you gotta do is have your promoter, Dan Goossen, quit playing games and pay a man like he needs to be paid and I'll knock your ass out because you're terrible anyway. You already blew one shot. I'm going to get you a shot at the real heavyweight championship, which I got, the IBA title. You know what? Quit playing! Tell Dan quit playing games and sign the contract and put your money where your mouth is, you fucking monkey. 

PC: You're saying it's too late in the game for him to switch it up now?

JT: Man, hell no! He can't switch that shit man; he's a nice guy. He's Dr. Doolittle. All of a sudden, he wants to try to be a thug and all that. Come on man. A leopard never changes his spots. The thing is these dudes are pretend though. I come from a hard background. I have been like this my whole life. Even when I was playing football, I always talked shit to everybody, but I backed my shit up. These dudes trying to do it to make a name for themselves, but when the pressure gets too hot on them, they will fold like an accordion. I'm not playing with nobody, man. They think this is all fun and games, but if I see you in an office, we got a problem. I have always been like that. I ain't playing! Everybody else play fighting, but I take this shit seriously man. Like I said, when I get to the UFC, it's going to be a rude awakening for them guys that's used to playing Rock 'n Roll and all that shit. When I come through with my gangsta shit, they gonna be like, "Oh, Goddamn. What the fuck we done let in?"

PC: I was telling someone the other day if Dana got mad at Frank Mir's comments about hoping Brock Lesnar dies after their fight, then he hasn't seen anything yet. I can't even imagine some of the things you're going to say.

JT: He said he wish Brock Lesnar dies after their fight and Dana White got mad? Oh shit!

PC: Yeah, Dana wasn't too happy about that.

JT: Wow! They ain't heard nothing yet.

PC: Pacquiao is your man. What did you think of his fight against Clottey?

JT: I thought Pacquiao looked great. Clottey is a punk and he was scared to get knocked out. He should have went out on his shield; instead, he went out like a bitch. He's the typical African fighter. When the tough get going, they fall out. When the pressure gets too hot for these guys, New York by way of Africa, they always fold like an accordion baby. They can't handle pressure. I ain't met a fighter yet from Africa or New York that could handle pressure. They frontrunners. All of the work he did in that fight, he did on the way to the ring. He tore it down on the way out; some American Idol shit.

PC: I thought I was watching a Cory Spinks fight.

JT: Yeah, if he would have fought, he would have went out like Cory Spinks too. The only reason a guy like that gets a TV date is because he's an ass kisser. 

PC: Well, he took his biggest payday ever and I'm sure he could go live like a king in Ghana.

JT: All day! All day!

PC: I'm sure Tony Thompson will read this. Give him a message.

JT: Tony Thompson, Tony "The Tit" Thompson, you barking up the wrong tree. If you want to fight me, be prepared to die because you ain't ready to do that shit. Stop talking about stuff that you ain't because you ain't hard; you softer than a piece of cupcake. Get our promoter Dan Goossen to put the money up and I will whoop your ass, I promise you that. Then you can go to DC, or wherever you from, drive a cab and have a good life. I'm knocking him out. I told you, I'm knocking him out. I got a bounty on everybody's head out there. It ain't no more playing around! I ain't playing! Tony Thompson and Fres Oquendo's manager talking shit, when I see them, I'm going to slap the dog shit out of them. Make sure you send this to them too. I'm going to slap the shit out of his ass. Fres brother, he a lil' bitch too. He talked all that shit after the fight after I left out. You a ho ass motherfucker. Don't talk shit when I leave; say it to my face! All of these motherfuckers. Fres admitted I whooped his ass. He may have done a few good things in there the last 10 seconds of every round, but hell, we fought 12 rounds. I pounded the shit out of your bitch ass, soft ass motherfucker! Fake ass Puerto Rican. All Goossen gotta do is put the money up. I ain't fighting man…these dudes think I'm going to fight for $25,000 and shit like that. Man, I'm a motherfucking icon. I'm a legend. Dan better go find somebody else to fight for $25 to $30,000. Man, suck my dick. I've put in too much work in this game for that shit. He tried to play me like I'm stupid, but that's okay. Nobody wants to see me. Hey, somebody wants to see me because I see my shit with you blowing up every day.

PC: You already know you have open mic every week on FightHype.com. For people asking why do I do so much with Toney, who would turn down interviewing a legend? That's just being honest. Close me out with something my man.

JT: I want to tell everybody out there that reads FightHype, keep hollering at my man, Percy "No Mercy" Crawford that is! Stay up and I will get up.
