There is a reason why there hasn't been a white heavyweight champion--it's called facial structure. Btw, I am white. Yeah Yeah, disagree if you want. Fedor is not a professional boxer. He is a very good MMA striker. Personally, I think Vitor would have a much better chance against Tyson than Fedor or Mirko would. And yes, I think Mcbride could even take his 33 win 28 by knockout record and knockout Fedor. MMA vs. Boxing in a boxing match.. Boxing will win. The last thing to fail a fighter is punching power. If you think Tyson doesn't still have that, then you are mistaken. It would only take one clean shot from Tyson and that wouldn't take long with a non-boxing opponent.
I think Fedor would beat Mike now in a striking match too. And, I think the Toney comments came off of him ragging on the fact that there will never be a white hw champ...I myself said put him in the ring with Fedor...but I was implying mma...still...I don't think Toney would fare well either way.
