After opening the door to James Toney, the UFC better get used to other boxers trying to wedge their way into the octagon.
The newest name on the list? Australian boxer and IBO cruiserweight champ Danny Green, who claims he wants to face Brock Lesnar next February, when the UFC likely returns to his home country. The cruiserweight division, for those of you who don’t follow boxing, goes up to 200 pounds. According to BoxRec.com, Green weighed in at 184.75 for his last fight, meaning he’d give up around 80 pounds in the hypothetical matchup against the UFC heavyweight champion that will never, ever, in a million years happen.
Of course, there’s a huge caveat to Green’s interest anyway: He wants to fight under amended rules.
