He was so overweight and wasn't a striker to begin with. All the people going "HAHA SEE BOXING IS BETTER!!!!" need to chill out, Mercer was brutally beat down when he tried to move to MMA.
Obviously boxers are going to be better at BOXING. People don't say that the MMA Heavyweight champ would kill Wlad in a boxing match, he would get beat down but in a MMA bout Wlad would get killed. Two different sports.
Needs to be kept relative. An old, shot Ray Mercer would not lose to the mma equivalent of the guy Ricco lost to... Not comparing the sports, comparing the two matchups. Ricco should be humiliated. He fought the worst of the worst. Mercer fought a B/C+ fighter.
I rarely like to insult people on this forum but you are an idiot. It takes tremendous skill and training to become only a contender at either boxing or MMA. Plenty of MMA fighters in the past were olympic athletes too. Some were olympic medalists from wrestling for example, but then again, I´m sure they just took a break from cooking fries at fat burger to roll around with a few slobs at those lousy olympics to get medals. Go win a belt in UFC if it´s that easy, moron, or are you maybe even more of a bum than a fry cook? :hi:
That's a dumb post. If I would wager anyone being "killed", I would wager on Wlad's right hand smashing the chin of any MMA heavyweight fighter.
Keep in mind guys that MMA might just be a fad, just like Poker was a few years ago. Poker was huge. Many shows on about it and merchandise were selling in every store and ppl claim it could be bigger than any sport! Now its dead...So who knows about MMA. still too young.
Ricco Rodriguez can't box. He's a grappler. I'm surprised he would even attempt to get into a boxing ring.
yeah, thats right am a fry cook at fat burger, thats why i get hella bitches and respect. Those people in mma are ridiculous, if you dont see that you either being prideful or a dumbass. Only very few are realy talented in that sport, as in boxing it takes years to learn the stuff dead on. An as for that ufc belt, when i do go pro in boxing thats the first i intend to do, shut up all you little bitches about how " oh ufc so good, there talented, you cant compare a ufc fighter to a boxer its like comparing a shark to a bear". I say **** that ****, a good boxer can **** up any style of mma. as for this **** :hi: , you take that shove it up your ass you ****en *****, DONT EVER DISREPECT ME
You must really be a half-******ed 14 year old. Your posts are ignorant, profanity laid and immature. As for your empty threat: I´ll disrespect you all I want and there´s nothing you can do about it. I look forward to hearing about the fry cook who submits your ass in your first MMA fight - that is if you ever do become a fighter in any sport - you seem more like a keyboard warrior to me. :tong
wow, im the keyboard warroir!!! thats right, it seems you spend a liitle more time then me typing your ass off on here jerking off to peoples avatar. All this profanity and immatureness is because im the ****, im MR BOINGO, i do what i want, i make alot pornos including one with your mom. You sound like lowlife piece of **** whos working a dead end job that probably ****s donkeys, you get the kick out of talking **** on here but the kind of person that if you meet face to face will jizz his pants(thats if your not shooting blanks) like a little *****. I didnt threaten you, you feel threatened by some retarted 14 year old, WOW, that just how big of a ***** you are
