Jason The Hitman Hartmann vs Bruce The Preacher McPhie

your so right about the boxing in kickboxing being so different to the boxing in boxing

Talented fighters can adapt to the different rule sets. Sam Soliman is a great example

 

greg foley was another great kick boxer who couldnt box or punch when he came to boxing but in kick boxing he was a wrecking ball just diffrent sports imo but think bruce will just be to strong any way late tko id say

 

Off the top of my head, there's not too many who've come across from kickboxing and been successful. I can think of...
Troy Dorsey
James Warring
Sam Soliman
Briggs brothers and that's about it.

 

Also the guys that have come over from kickboxing had left it behind and become boxers, you can't do both at the same time two different sports.

 

Even Vitali fought some kickboxing

 

I don't know if he made a career out of it. I always thought he was like Hatton, fought some but switched across early doors.

 

He once was a professional Kickboxer, he had an awesome record fighting that style as an amateur. The guy was a born fighter

 

There you go. I don't follow the kickers at all.

 

me neither but i like vitali and have read up on him a lil bit. Some might say i could be termed a nuthugger

 

Grant 'Bomber' Barker from Sydney went over and got smashed by Vitali in a pro kickboxing fight in the 90's
