Cause I certainly do, I got into another argument last night with some dumbass drunk frat boy about MMA vs Boxing... of course he is a moron and thinks boxers are pussies and any MMA guy would beat their ass... He told me Uriah Faber would destroy PBF in a fight, which honestly I laugh at. Trying to argue this against these ****ing meatheads is like trying to argue with a creationist about how dinosaurs in fact did not walk the earth with humans. The only way they will finally see that MMA is a farse is if a boxer steps into a MMA ring and kicks the **** out of one of these meatheads.
PBF would get the hell beat out of him if he tried to fight in a ring with MMA rules. He would get taken down and beat the hell out of. In a standing fight - sure he'd win easily - but a good MMA fighter would just take him down and crush him.
Pretty Boy Floyd would need to train MMA for more than a year and he still wouldnt be ready for the elite fighters @ his weight, they would just take him down. And no organisation pays good enough to get Floyds attention.
It would be a bad idea. A boxer will beat an MMa fighter with boxing rules, and vice versa. It's like comparing American football and rugby. They look similiar, but I wouldn't wanna see Tom Brady playing Rugby(or maybe i would cuz i hate the guy).
If he could land a flush punch before being taken to the ground by an octopus he could do OK. 90% of those guys in MMA have Glass Jaws. Don't give me this BS about it being the gloves or some crap like that they get knocked down and sometimes out by jabs for christ sakes.
No one wants to see Floyd in MMA and no one wants to see these threads because they get moved to the MMA forum. FLoyd is a great boxer - but he is not prepared for fighting in MMA so yes a guy like Urijah Faber would bundle him to the ground and pull his head off his shoulders. [YT]TtKx41UdCj0[/YT]
yeah,,highly unlikely but a great thought,,,those arguments with the meathead frat ****s about how MMA is a purer sport with so much skill bug the **** outta me,,,end of the day if watching dudes throw a few punches with little solid technique before they get on the floor and wrestle in a homoerotic stylee thats cool with me but I aint buyin
A boxer will lose to a top MMA fighter, just as an MMA fighter would lose to a top boxer. Apples and oranges. Explain that to those meatheads next time.
