You'd say the exact same thing if you ever got tangled up with a Jiu-Jitsu blackbelt.. It's just awesome. And by the way, a guy like BJ Penn...
Simple. Because as bad as those dudes were, they wouldn't last an MMA round with Urijah Faber....:lol: If you think Gatti bled like a stuck pig...
What I love is that boxing fans (myself included) talk about the refinement, the technique, the subtle nuances of the sport. Yet ask most to name...
No shit. Everyone is talking about Anderson Silva failing at boxing and then "settling" on MMA because it's easier. Bull shit. Silva chose MMA...
You act like MMA fighters are only average at every discipline. As I said previously, you take a guy like Penn that has decent boxing skills...
I gotta go with Jesse Taylor in this one. I still think CB gets winded too easily to roll around with an animal like Taylor. Personally I hope...
And that's what everyone tends to overlook. A couple of guys have thrown out the boxing records of Pulver of Silva, but overlook the fact that any...
I disagree. I think Silva's athletic ability and reflexes combined with fundamental boxing skill would allow him to perform well among average...
Perhaps, but I would bet you this: Throw Anderson Silva in a boxing ring with any 185 pound boxer in the world and he would not embarass himself....
You're laughing but do you care to tell me what in Penn's punching technique is clearly inferior to most boxers? Didn't think so.
That's nonsense. First, how do you call a guy like BJ Penn 'a master of none'? The guy is among the most accomplished Jiu-Jitsu practicioners...
Skill is such a subjective term. But personally, I think the top MMA guys like Spider, Fedor and Penn are more skilled than top boxers....
Guys, you're letting your bias against White and the UFC cloud your judgement. That fight was close and could have been scored either way, but...
That's why it's hard not to like the guy. He knows he isn't a big puncher. He knows he's not BJJ guy. He knows he's not a former All American...
What's ironic is that this might be the best Griffin's face has ever looked after a fight....
Concur. You make a great point about Round 1. Griffin was absolutely winning that round except for the one uppercut by Rampage. But that was the...
This is why I'm glad I post on this site. It's a sanity check. I was yelling at the TV that it was a brutal headbutt, not a "liver shot", that...
I like this match up. Hamill is a tough cat and will be a handful for Franklin. It should be a close fight. By the way, I think we all agree...
Can you prove this.
Well, remember when I say 'in their prime' that also means in top form. Lewis in top form drilled Rahman with ease. Like I said, Lewis would...
If you could magically have every great HW in their prime fight in a tournament tomorrow, Lennox Lewis walks away unscathed and the champ. If you...
Wow. I have to disagree. Faber may not actually be Top 5 P4P material, but he also isn't the most overrated fighter in MMA. The guy is a...
No shit.... Tommy Hearns looked good for 13 rounds against Leonard and busted him up good. Unfortunately all of that is moot since Leonard ended...
Who else , not in the Top 5, has dominated a weight class so clearly over the last couple years? The only guy I considered was Rampage, but he's...
Looking forward to next season, how would you like the opportunity to be trained by team Nog which will include Noguiera, Anderson Silva and Lyoto...
Today's Miranda is really not that good of a fighter. I think the Green and Pavlik fights combined to absolutely destroy Miranda as a top tier...
Pavlik's jab, straight punching, height and reach give him the physical tools to penetrate Abraham's defense and be effective. Kelly is a big,...
Personally I think grounded fighters benefit too much from a ring. The whole 'restart' thing is stupid and detracts from the drama of the fight.
I couldn't be happier. CB gets owned AGAIN and looks like a douche with the "No I didn't tap" bullshit.
I agree, and was thinking the same thing. I'll add one other thing. I can just see a UFC card down the road that includes a hyped and...
