Rampage vs. Roy Jones Jr stopped because of Dana White?

If you go back and read my post, notice I said that a boxer has a better chance against a "striking mma fighter"
Alot of mma fighters dont specialize so much on takedowns more than they rely on striking, thats why they are called strikers.

I agree though, a boxer would'nt stand much of a chance against a grappler in an octagon cage.

 

This is the way I've always seen it.

A top boxer would have A chance against a top UFC fighter in the octagon. It may only be a slim chance, but he'd have A chance.

But a UFC fighter, would literally have no chance whatsoever, of beating a top boxer in a boxing match.

 

The ironic part is that he actually trained extensively at a boxing gym when he was younger and he's still a fan of the sport to this day. Dana's all business though. Can you blame him?

 

That's because boxers master the art of movement and punching. UFC/MMA is a mixture of all in one. Wrestling, punching, canvas mounting...etc

 

i read what you wrote. even a "striking mma fighter" will take down a boxer after the first missed punch.....just because grappling is second on their arsenal list, he will still be taken down immediately

 

hes all business but an obvious hypocrite

 

Shot to **** Mayorga would starch any UFC fighter(on his weight range) in a Boxing match...:deal

 

Roy's never been out of shape. atsch

 

Not if he does'nt get the chance.

The fight does'nt just start and the boxer is just there for the takedown.
