    What's crazy is that you're still posting. You're still posting after being slapped down repeatedly after every one of your insanely idiotic posts with pseudo-facts.

    I've done it several times and while it was fun at the time to quiet the moron, it's not even fun anymore. Just stop. Go back to GBF where your opinion might come off as fact or where your unbelievable bias towards boxing might matter.

    Christ Almighty, this topic is older and mustier than an 85 year old nun's undergarments.

    These know-nothing ignorant imbeciles appear on the MMA forum talking utter shite about things they don't understand at all, whilst behaving as if they are dispensing pearls of wisdom and educating the masses out of the goodness of their hearts - you sir, are a prime ******* of the very, very highest calibre.

    For the record (yet again), a boxer embarrasses an MMA fighter in a boxing match, and an MMA fighter humiliates a boxer in an MMA fight.

    Get it??? Goody.

    END OF TOPIC FOREVER...



    ...until the next 15 year old General Forum moron turns up and bores us all over again. :dead

    how is there no dignity is actually studying different forms of fighting, and fights in the street go to the ground alot. now im 6'5 225 so while im breaking every bone in your face you dont think it mite be a good idea to know some kind of ground work, at least how to get away before you get a brand new dental plan. i think it would b smart, and saying mma fighters dont have as good as chins as boxers is ridiculous, that like me saying im italian we have the best chins see it sounds stupid, if you dont wana bleed get broken bones and no matter what somebody is gona knock you out if you fight long enough. and if u dont think it can happen to you come to our gym in san diego, an we will let u try it out if you dont wana take the chance go cheer from the stands,we need spectator that think they could live a real fighters life style. now i started out boxing thats what we do growing up in my family my grandfather fought jake lamotta, how many people on this site have ever been in the ring or the cage, it sounds like most of you havent. and after every fight we go partying and hear all the dumb wana be tough guys saying "i could hang with you" an that will never happen point is kimbo slice a chump to an experienced fighter. Guys boxing is great, but be a complete fighter and you will know the difference

    Who is your Grandfather? If it's Vinnie D'andrea than he never fought Jake Lamotta. He fought on the same card as Lamotta, but never fought the man.

    That is some of the silliest **** that I have ever heard.:lol:

    You do realize that people wrestle because it is the best way to control a fight don't you? Wrestling is part of fighting... you act like boxing is the only real fighting style or something, that's just silly.

    It has nothing to do with being afraid to get hit. It has everything to do about dominating the person in front of you. I could just as easily say that people stand and throw punches because they can't wrestle or grapple. I could also say that any boxer who uses defense is just afraid to get hit as well. That's all just nonsense. Logic should tell you that people usually resort to their strength and comfort zone. People don't start wrestling at 4 years old because they are afraid to get hit.:lol: People wrestle their entire lives because it is a great sport. If those people choose to move into MMA it is arguably the best fighting base to start with. Not only because it is such a dominant skill, but also because it gives you the ability to decide where you want the fight to take place. Plenty of wrestlers use their wrestling ability to keep fights on their feet. Many decide to be smart and use their ability to attack their opponents weakness... whether that be on their feet or on the ground. Some wrestlers use their ability to take fighters down and just grind out decisions. Not the fans favorite part of the game, but if it works... it's a win. If it is such a "***** move"... then why can't you stop it? Nobody is going to pull a wrestler off of you in a dark alley when you are all alone.

    You sound like those kids that you always see at school getting the **** beat out of them by someone taking them down and pounding the **** out of them... while the kid and his two friends complain about the wrestling.:rofl

    From your perspective... a "real warrior" is nothing more than an extremely limited fighter.

    Yeah, I am sure that the NSAC would be sanctioning Brock Lesnar vs Wladimir Klitschko right away. Use your damn head. That fight would NEVER happen. You do realize that they don't sanction fights with a fighter of zero boxing experience (am or pro) vs a Champion or former champ... right?

    Also... why on earth would a real all around fighter bother going into such a limited sport such as boxing in order to box against a boxer? What sort of sense does that make? The entire point of the boxer going into MMA would be to prove that his skill of "boxing" trumps the MMA fighters main skill of "wrestling" ect... Why would a Wrestler go into a boxing match, against a boxer... and have to follow boxing rules, in which they aren't allowed to wrestle? Let alone kick, knee, elbow, clinch fight, submit, ect... Exactly what would that prove? If you put them in an MMA match, then it obviously would either prove that the boxers boxing trumped the wrestlers wrestling, or vice versa.... in boxing it proves nothing. That the boxers boxing trumps the wrestlers boxing... what a ****ing surprise.:lol: It doesn't even prove that he can out strike the MMA fighter, just outbox him. Who knows what would happen if leg kicks, head kicks, muay thai clinches, ect... were involved. At that point even a straight up striking match is COMPLETELY different than boxing.

    yea an he was real good but did the thing alot of italian fighters did in those days which i hate is take dives, i lost most of my family young and the word i always heard that the fight was set with lamotta the he got hit by a taxi cab breaking both legs and he was suppose to be a real big prospect with knockout power n either hand but after his legs heald, he wasnt the same. he started loan sharkin for the gambino family and thatsnall i know he had a real nice record but if you could please help or tell me where to look for info on him, because he was suppose to be the next big thing around mulberry street. hince his nick name "the pride of mulberry bend" but after getin hit by the cab he almost had to hang it up and it would be nice to know where you really come from an why fighting is n me, so i'd b real grateful just for a little help if u ever have the time so i can get more facts. thank you tons even that statement made my night
