Are they unskilled that way, they are all head hunters, I heard about Conner calling out Lesner and thought a few things, Lesner was a fake wrestler but is so big he could just grab Conner and crush him, I don`t think Conner can hurt him but punching with 4 ounce mitts might level that a bit compared to bigger men fighting in boxing, is there a difference in that regard? Then I thought about a question someone posted here, could Ward`s fight ending body shot have doubled Marciano over and I didn`t know why a bigger man could absorb a body shot better than the smaller more fragile chinned man, there`s no bigger neck muscles to absorb the punch better, could MMA fighters find a pac or De La Hoya who can move through the weights by using boxing style body punching i.e. McCallum and Chavez or is there no comparison between the 2 sports?
They can, but it's always a risk of eating a knee, which is why mma fighters a more likely to use body kicks and knees over body punches. But, I've seen some mma fighter stop guys on body punches before. Jon Jones did it before. This content is protected
Some guys go to the body and some don't, just like in boxing. A good MMA example of a guy with an aggressive body attack was Nick Diaz: This content is protected
Who`s the best body puncher in MMA I`d like to compare him with the all time great body puncher Mike McCallum! Does Conner throw any body punches because Mayweather is so hard to hit on the chin.
Brilliant! These blows were so much harder, faster and less telegraphed than the Diaz body punching clip I watched below. Do you think these kicks would KO a big guy like Lesner?
OK sorry, the clips in the above vid were amazing, the kicks to the body really answered my question.
That's exactly what Overeem did to Lesnar. This content is protected Full fight http://cms.springboardplatform.com/embed_iframe/1523/video/774913/bjpn001/bjpenn.com/10
Yes but could an MMA fighter the size of Conner kick with this power? I think he could it doesn`t seem to work the same in boxing because a boxer Conner`s size could not KO a decent heavyweight but body shots may work differently! The question was asked on a boxing forum could the shot that Ward doubled Kov with do the same to a small heavy like Maciano? I guess in both sports the body shot may be the great equalizer.
