    Not sure everyone has seen this or not, Danny Green fighting in Muay Thai match against Perth's Oliver Olsen. I rekon DannyBoy was smart to choose a career as a boxer, he would have been flogged time and time again as a kickboxer and most likely DQL alot of the times, he is a dirty fighter in this one and imo pretty dam crap, walks into punches and has very poor balance. Oh and i dont think he looks LHW here either fellas :lol:

    ENJOY!:good

    The second clip is the begining rounds and has some gay Johnny Boy music the entire duration, just mute it if it bothers you, i know i did.

    I saw this a while back hes Very young here. Ugly fight but you can see where he gets his strength in the boxong ring from, and tc continuing with his smear campaign against green. You should add him on fb and abuse him also tc, you know come at him from all angles!

    Just stating the obvise, i guess i could have chosen better words as LJD has done.

    Atleast i wont butter it up as you have done lol, I didnt think he looked very strong at all, very raw and aggressive however for a STRONG guy as you say it was funny watching his opponent throwing DannyBoy around like a rag doll at times.:lol:

    I never said he was strong mate i said you can see where he gets his strength, as a result of this sort of combat it would have definitely had a positive effect on his inside strength in boxing down the line. Comprende? And its lightwelterweight not lhw thats why he doesnt look lhw

    Yeah i still dont see where he gets his strength from in terms of watching him in a kickboxing fight m8, im a bit lost with that one, know where ur trying to come from but just cant see the picture lol As for my comment about LHW, Danny Green is a natural LHW didnt you know haha, its why Mundine beat him so easly so they say lol, pretty good for a natrual LHW to get down to lightwelter, and he wasnt 15 either, he was a man in that fight, not a boy lol

    Pretty sure he was under 21 in that fight and he definitely was very lean. So your digging this up to refute claims of him being a lhw? Well if you cant see how grappling and wrestling like that improves strength your a lost cause, he would be nowhere near as strong as he is now if he didnt have that kickboxing background.

    LMAO :lol:, is that why so many kickboxers make the successful transition to boxing and go on to become awsome boxers? :nono

    Grappling doesnt help your boxing game what so ever. Your better off doing core strength work if strength is what your after, theres no grappling nor wrestling in boxing. Look at a kickboxer like Ben Burrage, he is hopless at boxing and looks VERY weak, why is it his kickboxing in japan and such hasnt made him strong like Danny Green?

    And Danny would have been in his 20s at the time of that fight. Unless Danny keept getting taller and his organs keept growing theres no reason why anyone can say he is a legit LHW and have people belive it unless they are on the end of Dannys n0b. You can clearly see he made lightmiddleweight at 20, that would be the lightest weight he can be, yet he fought at Super Middle and still complained about loosing to much weight? Claiming LHW is his natrual divison but even then the guy cant fight at LHW cause he gets ass handed to him so he makes up Dannyweight CW.

    A lightweight thats turned into a CW? Reminds me of a James Toney :lol:

    Considering he was over 30 when he was campaigning as a pro as opposed to 20? Adding muscle etc. Grapling etc is ideal for core strength , maybe they didnt succeed because they werent good boxers? Although according to you green isnt a good boxer either. All i said is that it would have been good for strength for inside fighting and clinching take from that what you will

    Grappling is a great strength conditioner, you use muscles that cant be targeted using weights or regular training on ur own.

    Green was 19 in that fight.

    Eight years later at the 2000 Olympics he was competing as a light-heavy (81kgs).

    Ty, you're quick to put up Green's effort in a Muay Thai state title fight. Why don't you put up your effort in Cessnock '99 for all to see?

    What's the deal with that Ben Edwards guy? He has some serious power. He could make some noise in the shitty heavyweight division. Is he ever going to take boxing seriously? I only ever see him on kickboxing cards.

    He was no where near 20 you ****head! I was actually there. His opponent had been in training camp in Thailand (not sure how many fights) and this was Dannys second (and last) Muay Thai fight.

    I guess its still about 100 losses less than you
