    Right, I agree with you. But over-muscularization can zap your stamina because of carrying all that oxygen through your body. Frank Bruno was hindered by it. I wouldn't mention Wlad to disprove the theory either. But yes, natural stamina and lung capacity is more important but too much muscularization can affect your stamina a bit.

    :lol:

    He'll be one of the most fluid guys out there. MMA guys can't duck a punch to save their lives.

    I disagree about his power.

    I think he has plenty enough power and can KO anybody at 168, but he needs to find them in order to be able to land that power.

    I think he will have a massive problem with the money, this guy has been making over a million euro's a fight for 4 years, I don't think he is going to fight for $30 000.

    He is good enough physically. Technically he needs to stop defending then puching, he needs to block and counter. He needs to stop over shooting. He needs to work off the jab. He needs to break opponents down to the body.

    AA has the ability, he just needs a new trainer to teach him new things.

    A fighter like AA in MMA would be forced to evolve. In boxing, they stay stuck in one style not learning any new moves or going from camp to camp to learn.

    Oh dear what a silly thread.

    For starters AA relies on his high guard can you imagine the success he will have with this with diddy 4oz MMA gloves and lets not get started with the grappling.
