    Because you know they only do it becuase Boxing no longer needs them, as harsh as it may seem.

    Basically. Hasim is pretty much done as a serious contender. I like Rock, but his Lennox Lewis one punch ko train is over

    I'd like to see him fight Kimbo in K1 rules. I see Kimbo winning via RNC or Guillotine.

    In the end of the day.........Hasim will not take boxing seriously so why would he take MMA seriously?

    Its not that boxing is being exposed.......just the individual........he is way past it and if Vlad had more killer instinct he would have flatten quick but chose a saftey first approach.

    If we are talking a 20 yrd old Hasim then.......yeah great addition.....as he will take time to learn boxing, and ground game........but this isnt the the case.......he is just a name.

    He would be awful. He is too out of shape to pose any sort of real threat. He will get taken down quickly.

    FFS. The man needs to retire. He'll be an embarrasment to both sports. Only he will probably get KTFO that much worse in MMA.

    With his Glass Jaw MMA is where he belongs. He will fit in just fine.

    Rahman, I think if matched perfectly, could get up in the ranks. Just as long as he's moved away from wrestlers/submission artists and kickboxers....have him fight guys like Tank Abbott, Kimbo Slice, and he'll be fine, and in due time, be primed for a title shot, only to get destroyed lol

    He's not taking MMA seriously and is just going to go in there and make a fool of himself and the sport of boxing.

    Stupid idea. He is too slow and without the skills.
