    "I think MMA is for people who can't box, basically," Fury told The MMA Hour

    No, he said he was up for a hybrid stand up match but he "couldn't be doing with all that on the floor business"

    He claims he's the best stood up fighter in the world.

    Well seen as he just outboxed the most dominant heavyweight for the past decade he's not far wrong

    Miles from it.

    Saki would wipe the floor with him. As would many other stand-up fighters.

    I meant it as a joke.

    Fury said that MMA is for people that can't box.
    His boxing is pretty average
    So he's going to do MMA ...

    Eh, it was funnier when I first wrote it :oops:

    Could imagine how an elite MMA would brutalise his knobbly knees, take him down and ruin his world.

    He's a great boxer, but I am so sick of hearing his drivel.

    "Boxing is for people who can't do anything but box." would be a suitable response for him, but that wouldn't be my official stance so much as a wind up which probably holds more water than what he said :p

    He's right. Boxing pays it star fighters better, so if you'e a combat athlete and you want to make the most money than it makes more sense to box. The only reason to do MMA, is because its a fad and its easier.
