    Starting at 8:55, an amateur begginer boxer bangs his head in with some HUGE punches.

    You tell me if that's a good indication of his skills.

    Imagine him in with Haye. Haye KO 1.

    Based on what? Your homosexuality?

    That doesn't count.

    Cunningham would put on a boxing lesson before knockin him out.

    I respect Silva and he's my second favorite MMA fighter behind Rampage Jackson. Usually I talk **** about MMA fighters, but there are a select few who I respect, but with that said. Silva would get sparked against any top 10 cruiser weight

    What I want to know is why Silva hasn't called out GSP? Is it cause Pacquiao showed GSP a few moves :hey Pac would beat Silva at 158 :yep

    Silva couldn't beat a decent amateur, let alone a top 10 cruiser. Funny stuff...

    I like Silva as much as anybody in MMA and he's arguably one of the better boxers I've seen there, but he's fighting guys who don't have a ****ing clue how to box to the point he knocked somebody out with a jab whilst moving backward. A top 10 Cruiser weight would toy with him then knock him out.

    **** no, he would get torched. He's got great striking in MMA, but in pure boxing he'd get picked apart.
