ufc's brandon vera "after mayweather/pacquiao, boxing is over"

The guys most likely got his ass handed too in a sparring match and has taken it personally. The truth is we have C level boxers who have taken out UFC champs and are currently MMA champs as well. Once again C level boxers are dominating UFC little by little

 

As long as people are still able to punch each other in the face a pure punching sport will exist.

 

Brandon Vera said that?, damn... I think he may be right guys, he ain't called "The Truth" for nothing.

 

Just because FLoyd and Manny are the two biggest boxers doesn't mean there aren't other draws heck who is even a draw in mma anymore except for GSP

 

Funny...the 2 guys used in this little bull**** logo are 2 of the most brutal and devestating strikers to ever grace MMA. The amount of destruction and pain they've caused far exceed any KO Mayweather or Pac have ever recorded.

 

Pac has dished a bunch of savage beat downs but I agree Floyd hasn't.

Vera needs another beat down though.

 

He has a point though. There aren't really many exciting up and coming fighters. Canelo maybe? But who's going to challenge him if he grows into a superstar...

 

he's a fighter who doesn't need names to sell fights. He can cherry pick like mayweather and still sell in the millions because when marquez goes, the mexicans are going to have alvarez left.

 

it's easy to be tough guy 5 minutes.
Manny had given more pain to Morales, than any ufc fighter has ever take in MMA.

Five minute rounds easy. When was the last time you did a three by five minute rounds?

Such ridiculous statements show you know nothing of MMA.

 

you think one punch Ko is brutal, really brutal thing is take punches in head for 12 rounds.

Where did I even mention a one punch KO? And what boxer takes punches to the head for 12 rounds these days? Not enough according to many fans. Khan anyone?


Try taking kicks, elbows and knees which aren't wrapped in an oversized tampon - that's far more brutal. Try fighting with 40z gloves - that's far more brutal.

You hold boxing up as some ultimate bad ass punishment. Yet boxing originated as a far more brutal sport which contained many of the elements of modern day MMA. Chokes, throws, elbows, headbutts, fish hooking / gouging - all were common in bare knuckle boxing.

 

I'm sorry but who the hell are you talking about?

You know inventing bull**** just to try to sound knowledgeable is pretty pathetic.

 

Exactly, I've sparred with a Muay Thai fighter once just to know the impact of leg kicks, to understand more its importance in an mma fight (this was just after Rampage Vs. Griffin lol), and I couldnt believe how much it hurt. After only 4 kicks I was limping and was having a hard time putting weight on my front leg. Now imagine being leg kick by a Jose Aldo or a Shogun. Fuuuuckkk meeee

 

Heard it all before.

mma is desperate for boxing to die. UFC is desperate to tap into the latin and Black communities and get them away from boxing.
