Anyone hear about when Dinn Thomas is fighting Ricardo Mayorga,or did it take place already?

hasn't happened yet. some time in May I think

there is apparently already bad blood. There's a video out where mayorga is smoking and slaps Din but it's clear that he missed. I only heard about it, haven't seen the clip myself.

I think Mayorga is biting off more than he can chew debuting against a vet like Din

edit: May 15th, it's a SHINE card

Yeah,I don't know what training Mayorga has been doing but I don't see him beating Thomas who I thought was still with UFC...I've never heard of SHINE untill recently.
 
thats a horrible matchup for toney...he should've stayed in boxing where he would still be a top 20 HW

I think thats Dana's whole point,to put someone in against Toney who could really whup his ass and show him up after all of his s*** talking.There's quite a few boxers who berate and put down MMA and I can see the matchmakers wanting to have a chance to shut one of them up on a big show.Toney is probably out of money and can't secure a big money boxing match so he calls out MMA fighters.What a parasite.

toney still wins though because he still gets paid...to be honest, even in boxing, he is still a decent HW considering how bad it is at that division, but who really wants to see him in a boxing match against Sam Peter or one of the other fringe HW boxers. It just seems like a farce that Toney doesn't have to work his way up like any new guy in the sport. (I understand its about $$$, but still).
