    I guess when you put both sports together the winner is which ever fighter is better on that night.

    K-1 isn't MMA. Not in the current definition of the term with the "unified MMA rules". K-1 is basically kick boxing with some modified thai boxing rules thrown in I believe. It's purely stand up fighting.

    this is Kickboxing. K-1 is a org for Kickboxing not mma.

    if you wanna see boxing vs mma watch ray meryer vs tim sliva.

    Bad example...

    1 - this is under K1 rules. ( kickboxing , not mma )
    2 - the opponent happens to be a wrestler / mma fighter.


    So we basically have a pro boxer against a wrestler under kickboxing rules.

    Not to mention Erickson is basically a pure wrestler; coaches at Purdue now. Coached Fitch and Jake O'Brien, now he helps Matt Mittrione.

    It's not even boxing vs MMA. It's boxing vs wrestling in kickboxing rules. Very strange encounter. If you want to see a better boxing vs kickboxing match look up Francois Botha vs Remy Bonjansky.
