No, this isn't a repeat story from 2010, the opponent in question is not Randy "The Natural" Couture and the fight will not be taking place in the UFC.
Instead, Toney has agreed to meet 47-year-old Ken Shamrock in his second MMA fight this September. The former boxing champion fought Couture at UFC 118 in his one and only UFC appearance, getting submitted in quick fashion in the first round. He said he would fight again in MMA, but the UFC wanted nothing more to do with him.
Enter Shamrock, who continues to fight on despite being well past a truly competitive level. A finalist in the first ever UFC event, Shamrock has competed in just about every possible era and promotion of the sport, but he's gone 2-7 in nine fights over the last six years.
There's no word on what promoter will be putting this fight on, but it's expected to come sometime in September.

Penick's Analysis: This is a complete freakshow/farcical fight, but if Toney's going to fight another MMA bout, this is about the type of opponent that makes sense. Shamrock's got a name, but he's well past being anywhere near a legitimate competitor. Still, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see Shamrock take Toney down immediately and finish him quickly. Toney's not an MMA fighter, and he'll try to out-box Shamrock before that happens, but it's more than likely he's going to be taken down quickly and handled in the cage yet again.
