    Prime Cro Cop knocks out any boxer in a Muay Thai/kickboxing match

    MMA fighters take kicks to the Head and get choked out frequently, that will damage you up pretty good overtime. MMA is more random, hard to predict how you will get knocked out or submitted.

    Meh, an old Frans Botha would likely smash Cro cop to bits

    Rockhold getting a standing eight surely would've saved him brain cells

    Botha won because the two Aerts and leBanner were injured and old

    Botha has only 4 wins in kickboxing. Guess how many losses?

    Stop being a fool, Cro Cop beat prime and healthy Aerts and Lebanner. Botha beat old, injured Aerts and Lebanner, big difference. Botha has only 4 wins in kickboxing and 12 losses, that is a ***** disgrace.

    You know as well as I do that the finish had as much to do with Mcgregors poor conditioning then the power on Mayweathers punches,not to mention referee Robert Byrd yet again stopping a big fight to early.
    I'm certainly not taking any moral victory or using 0-0 boxer Mcgregors performance against the best boxer of the last 20 years as proof of anything and I was replying to his description of the fight,it's clearly insecure boxing fans who dislike MMA who keep trying to erroneously use it as evidence like they do videos like this as proof of MMA fighters having glass chins.
    Boxing is and always will be my 1st love but I respect and have followed MMA and several other combat sports for decades, so I get annoyed by people with little knowledge about MMA(including the grand poobah of the site who hates MMA) who because they dislike the sport feel the need to trash and make up ridiculous comparisons about fighters chins etc with zero evidence.

    If McGregor had at least an average boxing gas tank, he wins a UD, instead of gassing by the fourth round. It is laughable hearing people claim Mayweather made adjustments. No, McGregor just gassed after a few rounds.

    Lebanner boxed mostly with Botha and still more than held his own. He only lost because he refused to come out for the extra tie breaking round thinking he had done enough to win. His head wasn't right either considering his mother just died.

    Aerts suffered a fluke injury.

    Botha doesn't deserve much credit for these wins if you actually apply context as opposed to just reading wikipedia. So using these wins to fluff him and boxing up at Kickboxings expense is plain stupid.

    You have been watching MMA for 11 years and learnt this?

    WTF has any of this rubbish got to do with BJ Penn? No one in any form of the game likes to see "should be retired fighters" turn into train wrecks.
