Because the worldwide popularity of MMA was/is not that of boxing, the talent-pool is not quite that of boxing. That's how a WWE star like Brock Lesnar can become the UFC Heavyweight champ. It is preposterous to assume that guys like Dos Santos and Velasquez can KO the Klitchko's on the same night.

I wonder if people still believe this. I watched the fight tonight, and it was semi exciting if you can get past the complete lack of striking skill and stamina.

Any elite boxer in a cage, so long as they can evade the take down with decent sprawling, jeez. Imagine Pacs speed and accuracy and Mayweather's defense and accuracy. It just would be nasty.

That punch that Cain landed in the first round that had JDS on queer street for three rounds. If Vitali or Wlad would have landed that, they may have killed him.
