    Sure, but that only makes the point even more that you seemingly dismissed?

    LOL... And the debate rages on...

    "If only a good boxer would try MMA, he'd show them...."

    Get real. They are completely different sports. Why is it so hard to accept and move on?

    All I'm saying is the fights that have happened prove nothing. :dunno:

    I'm not speculating on what would happen.

    If BJ Penn choked out Floyd Mayweather it will still prove one thing. They are COMPLETELY different sports. Period.

    Sure. And what does that have to do with what I'm saying?

    It offers the counter point that "Who the fuck cares if mediocre or great boxers have tried MMA. The results would be the same and still prove nothing."

    They are different sports and without serious cross training, the boxer whether terrible, average or great, will always be at a disadvantage and subject to being made to look stupid by great wrestlers and BJJ fighters.

    End of discussion for me. It's a silly debate. Each sport stands on their own merits. Period.

    No, I mean he's finally finished typing. :bears:

    His bahavior after Toney/Couture sparked this thing again. I was good to let it go until that.

    Despite his behaivor, whatever it was, fact remains that a boxer with only the dicipline of boxer will never have a successful career in MMA.
