    He's not that bad. It's pretty good for MMA standards.

    He'd whoop any boxer near his weight range in a straight up fight though.

    he's boxed professionally twice as far as i'm aware. And considering his skillset in MMA, with extended proper training he could probably have been a good boxer. Where's the love, man?

    Jones would beat him with one eye shut, one eye tied behind his back...whilst hopping...with Judah's dad and Buddy McGirt in his corner.

    until a glove grazed Roy's chin, then it's all over.

    In the land of the blind(MMA), the one-eyed man(Silva with his limited boxing) is King.

    Of course he could, but what does have to do with the discussion? I'm an "arm chair boxing fan" but I haven't called out RJJ, Anderson Silva has. :nut

    I'm rating it in context though. This is a fighter who wants to fight RJJ. On the evidence of the video in this thread, he isn't good enough. Not nearly good enough.

    Decent for an MMA fighter? I 'spose.
