Guillard is one of the UFC's hard hitters too, I seen him knock guys out cold. Guillard is using MMA boxing style in a boxing match lol, the way he throws those wild telegraphed shots and his hands wide open, that works in MMA not boxing you have to have a closed guard or tight defense.
this was in 2005 he already had 20 mma fights before this fight.
I tried to watch mma once. funny stuff.
I watched Randy Couture vs Lights Out. All I saw was this randy guy holding on for dear life right off the bat trying to get a takedown straight away.
also got a right laugh watching two flyweights fight, don't get me wrong it was fun to watch too.
This whole MMA vs Boxing debate is quite irrelevant. Apples vs Oranges
You never hear about MMA vs Kickboxing or MMA vs Judo? Boxing like those two disciplines aforementioned is what makes MIXED martial arts MIXED and is incorporated in it. So its like saying Chemistry vs All other Sciences, because thats exactly how it sounds.
The reason why the comparison is so inevitable is that boxing on its own is so huge in contrast to any other "single" discipline of fighting. I mean you never hear about Taw Kwon Do champs.
This Guillard guy deserves his due here, hes got balls for fighting a boxer in a boxing match.
99% of MMA guys talk **** about MMA being better, then call out boxers to fight them in a..... MMA fight where they plan on wrestling him and submitting somebody who has never wrestled before. LOL like that proves anything. Atleast let it be an all strike fight where they can still do kicks and all cause a boxer is going to be terrible at that.
lol you mean kick boxing? k2?
they as in those pssy college kids who never had to go through amatuer rankings and get the weak weeded out
I would KO you in 5 seconds. amateur nothing

i do enjoy both too, but to me the gold standard for all fighting sports will be the sweet science of boxing. MMA is fun to watch but i cant help but laugh at times at these top fighters unable to even throw a correct punch. if u want to settle business in the ring, fight with your firsts not knees,elbows, etc. i know they are both different just my 2 cents
I enjoy both ways of settling in the ring or cage. Whatever floats your boat.
Who is they? This is one video of a dude being KOed.
And a puncher's chance in most cases sure as hell doesn't count for much.

You MMA haters are missing out. There's no point in being hostile towards MMA.
Completely different sports. There might be 1 instance a year where there might be a little **** talking between the 2 sports, but other than that, they usually just stay in their own lanes.
They're both awesome.

I'm as big a boxing fan as anyone, but not really :dunno:
So Boxers beat MMA fighters in a boxing ring, and MMA fighters beat boxers in a cage.
Each has fvck all to do with each other :dunno:
