    Just saw Miller in K-1 and realised why he has no boxing skills, he`s just a kick boxer who has come to boxing to late, he doesn`t understand or respect boxing fundamentals, McGregor had more boxing savvy than Miller has.

    Kickboxers trying to be boxers don't rack up wins over Adamek, Duhaupas, Washington, Dennis, Muralimov, Dinu, Kassi and Wach. So yeah, no.

    What's so funny about that? After all is he any worse then Pianeta, Kevin Johnson, Seferi, Cojanu or Kaufman? Or Dave Allen for that matter?

    Adamek is/was completely shot, although I think Miller could be world champ he has nice fundamentals, and move really well considering his size. Kickboxers can box, just look at Holzken

    Adamek is way past his prime and is a legit Cruiser. Miller is many pounds heavier than him and much fresher & younger, too.

    Yey lets all **** on another Anthony Joshua opponent. Hes unbeaten and top 10 ranked, has more pro Boxing experience than Joshua and seems to be the only 1 with the balls to face him.

    There are exceptional kickboxers that learnt proper fundamentals and have natural boxing accumen.. but some just end up being too sloppy.

    Tyrone Spong is another great example like Holzken, but Holzken really impressed me.

    Nah.........that ain't it............

    He has a better engine, better upper body and head movement,
    and a better punch variety (not power) than damn near
    everyone in the top 10. I'm not saying where his ceiling is
    but you're being purposely oblivious and discounting a lot.

    You forgot to add "/sarcasm" or "just joking" to the end of your post. Please edit.

    Miller is a former kickboxer, but AJ started boxing late. Povetkin, Whyte, Vitaly all use to be kickboxers.
