Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
Ray Mercer knocked Tim Sylvia out in seconds, only because Tim was stupid enough to try and box a boxer. Should have done what Kimbo did to Mercer and took his ass down.

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
I agree with RW. A boxer will only have a punchers chance. Mayweather is said to be making 90 mil in his next fight. Good for him. |

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
Sure, MMArtists are more well rounded and could wrestle fuck any boxer alive, but there is not one single MMA fighter today who can stand and wang with an upper echelon boxer.

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
An MMA fighter would out-wrestle a boxer, out-kickbox a boxer, out-grapple a boxer, and submit a boxer. Comparing a Boxer to an MMA Fighter isn't comparing apples to oranges - it's comparing apples to the entire fruit stand.  |

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
Exactly. Just stating that sometimes, a puncher's chance is all it takes.

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
The upper echelon boxer would get dropped on his head repeatedly. Now just imagine this on concrete. The boxer would need an arai corsair v just to survive.  |

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
I wasn't talking about a normal mma fight where he'd be slammed. It's already been established that a boxer in a cage would be lost when it comes to all the other elements. |

Re: DR's Official MMA Thread
Im wasn't referring to a "normal mma fight" as well. The only way a boxer will find any real success is in a boxing ring with boxing rules. I don't want to sound like I'm hating here. Boxers are good at what they do. Mayweather is on top of that list.
