    Kickers are different. I meant stand up with hands, the absolute best in MMA is low-tier in boxing.

    Positive feedback on this is a rare treat; usually it's people whining how much they hate it. Which of course delights me and provides incentive to never stop. :lol:

    Cro Cop was an outlier. Besides his elite kickboxing background he also had legit amateur boxing pedigree as well. Not many guys in the MMA world like that.. especially back then. There's a small % of MMA guys past-present who could transition to boxing and do well(mostly in higher weights) and they almost always have a striking background. Kickboxers/muay thai guys have always had an easier time making successful transitions to boxing as well. I think the only way an MMA fighter wins a legitimate world title in boxing is if they're a generational sort of athlete who was raised in the gym absorbing all facets of fighting from a young age.

    I think he was hoping for a break. As if it would take Joshua a second to feel comfortable attacking his line. Ngannou is just so STRONG, but not coordinated.

    AJ actually landed a massive bomb on Ruiz after Ruiz was knocked down and the fight resumed. You can hear it.

    :lol: I think IB got slapped with a few accusations of racism for writing out boxers full names. I am certain Manny Pacquiao was one of them.

    AJ did land hard shots, but the way he stepped into the blow that stopped Ngannou looked more devastating than anything he landed on Ruiz. In any case, I never wat to get smacked by either punch. LOL

    Still the funniest **** ever.

    And some of the simps for Thai culture would get their panties in major twists, raging at me in their best Greta Thunberg voice, "HOW DARE YOU disrespect this fighter and not take him seriously by calling him by his 'chosen fighting name' (aka whoring ass corporate sponsorship name) - JimBob RedBull CreditCard LuxuryAirliner RibbedCondom? :smiley_1140:"

    If the ref had stopped it after the 2nd knockdown the MMA guys would be screaming it was an early stoppage. They (the MMA people) needed to see their man sleeping in the ring.

    Maybe already posted but a fresh angle on the KDs/KO. Great perspective: -
