BOSTON — Ray Sefo knows a little about the transition James Toney is making. Sefo has fought as a professional boxer, was a world renowned kickboxer, and in recent years, he’s worked hard on his MMA game, most recently fighting for Strikeforce last September.
Sefo is also a trainer at Xtreme Couture in Las Vegas, as well as a key member in preparing Randy Couture to face Toney; the 6-foot, 240-pound Sefo mimicked the similarly built 5-foot-10, 237-pound Toney during Couture’s training camp. And given his own experiences going from the striking arts to the ground game, Sefo feels Toney will be woefully unprepared for the opponent that awaits him.
“I don’t think it’ll go any more than three minutes,” he said. “It’s going to end real fast.”
