    Easily.
    Being a successfull boxer doesnt guarentee them success on the pavement.
    On the pavement there are no rules.
    Yes --- experience on the pavement counts big time.
    Now remember you said "great streetfighter."
    A boxer with no experience on the street is at a big disadvantage to an experience successful street fighter.
    Many of those streetfighters, with training, have went on to become successfull boxers.

    I think the key thing about the boxer doing well is he knows how to hit but the street is a different game. If the street fighter is great he is going to hit the boxer first and he wont stop untill the boxer is down and in most cases stomp the **** out of him.

    There are some street fighters that can wip three good professional boxers at one time by themselves yet there are some boxers that would beat that same street fighter and more to a pulp all by themself. Theres a huge amount of variables involved including, strength, size, adrenalin, mental state, experience, divine intervention, etc..

    Sorry, but no man, unless there is a huge size difference could whoop 3 good pro boxers at the same time. Fact of the matter is, a streetfighters main advantage is his dirty tactics and sucker punches. When your dealing with 1 guy and theres 2 other guys who can throw a perfect punch to put your lights out, your gonna go out. I dont care if youre the best streetfighter in town, mike tyson or fedor. Now I firmly believe a guy like Tyson or Fedor could take on 10 average guys at a time but not 3 guys of their size who can punch well enough to put their lights out.

    I saw this too, someone posted the link on here a few months back. I was suprised how wild Zab was swinging and how he ran off, but street fights are a hell of alot different then being in the ring.

    We've had some pretty dumb threads recently but this must be a candiate for top ten. The poster must be a child. I think we need to start a thread where we keep the URL's for all the stupidest threads that we come across then give out end of year honours.

    Of course good boxers can lose to a street fighter in a street fight. They always have the disadvantage. Once the opponent grabs and grapple . . . he is already in deep trouble. Any boxer will always be out of his comfort zone if the fight includes kicking and grappling.

    I know several proboxers and some of them might become well known but they could never even come close to wipping me except in the ring (often get the better of me) and I am fairly confindent that I could beat three of the welters or under in a street fight. Bragging is not good but again I am right here and you are wrong.

    If they planned it right they could ware me down eventually but street fight usually are not planned and often get broke up after a little while--At least I would be praying it did:rofl

    Same goes for UFC and Pride fighters. Street fighters have several advantages. The sucker punch and the tackle, but the average boxer boxers skill vs the average street fighter is way better. Also the other intangibles of a street fight are weapons and buddies. As Pitt said keep your fighting in the ring. It will keep you safer and out of jail and keep you from getting sued.

    What makes you think those pro boxers could never come close to kicking your ass in a street fight?? Are you some kind of professional street fighter?
