MMA fighters calling out boxing

Paulie arguably won that fight tho for the people that actually watched it

REPLY/BUMP for tonight's fights... MMA fighters who look like they can actually Box... Jorge Masvidal Instinctive, super slick Boxing by MMA standards, elusive and has a good chin, street guy, Cuban-descent https://youtu.be/IcXXJKIm69I] ... TBC... Watch tonight. A lot of people say that the Diaz brothers have the best hands in MMA. Watch what plays out between Nate Diaz and Jorge Masvidal tonight. BTW, I'm a hardcore fan of the Diaz bros, but Masvidal... I think he's the one. Out all the high-level MMA fighters, he's the one who could cross over into Boxing and hold his own (well, when he was younger). Disclaimer: This is MMA, so Jorge Masvidal is going to throw more than just his hands. Mutherf&cker will be chopping Nate's legs with kicks... kicks to the body... in close, he'll grab that Muay Thai clinch and launch knees. Nate Diaz is not that dynamic (he only has Boxing and Jiu Jitsu, no kicking game, no wrestling). BUT hopefully we see a good amount of Boxing/hands.

The Artem win against Paulie got some people gassed. First Henry calls out Loma Now Dos Santos wants to fight wilder in boxing “I’ve been watching him for a long time. I actually admire him. His boxing skills are different but I think that’s the perfect match for me. I can see many, many holes in his game. Can you imagine I’m not worrying about no takedowns, no kicks, no jiu-jitsu, only boxing. That would be paradise for me.” https://www.mmafighting.com/2019/6/27/18760042/junior-dos-santos-plans-to-ko-francis-ngannou-win-ufc-title-and-then-challenge-deontay-wilder Ben Askren says Boxers cant box good. “So how can a guy like that, who’s not even great at standup in mixed martial arts, go to beat a guy who was a world champion in boxing? And the answer to me seems that people who box must just not be that good at boxing.” https://www.bjpenn.com/bare-knuckle-boxing/bare-knuckle-boxing-championship/ben-askren-reacts-to-artem-lobovs-win-over-paulie-malignaggi/ Cejudo better wish Loma does take that offer, Loma has a Judo/sambo/wrestling background.... All Loma has to do is stuff the takedown and keep it standing Cejudo would get lit up (I am equally into mmo as i am into boxing so i follow both sports closely). Most other boxers would get smoked if they transitioned thou Loma is the currently the only exception since his grappling background is pretty extensive.

Jorge Masvidal Instinctive, super slick Boxing by MMA standards, elusive and has a good chin, street guy, Cuban-descent... Here is arguably the best Boxer in MMA versus the best Wrestler in MMA... Jorge Masvidal vs Ben Askren (fight video starts at 1:52)

Askren cant talk about anyone's standup, his is awful. Cejudo is an incredibly arrogant midget. And Junior is concussed.

I blame Paulie. What a f**cking p**ssy. Pauline cause an avalanche of mma, azz clowns to believe they can throw hands..

People said here that Paulie didn't represent boxing but like it or not he does. And as a 2 time world champion when he went out there and lost (or had a close fight whatever) with a MMA fighter with a negative record, he embarrassed the sport and made boxers look average strikers and not something special as boxing fans always claimed they are on these fantasy fights against MMA guys. Now every real legit MMA fighter is calling out legit boxers because of that outcome against a MMA fighter with a negative record. This is all Paulie's fault.

Cody "No Love" invites himself to spar with Mikey Garcia, May 2018. First couple of minutes of the video:

is whaIt is what it is, the talent level is lower then ever so it is getting pretty even first off, that's not true. but even if it was, the talent pool in mma isn't that high either.

MMA fighters who look like they can actually Box... Cody Garbrandt Skilled but over-confident, moves well but keeps his chin high, 31-1 amateur Boxing Cody on Boxing (ESPN), 2017 - "I think going in a boxing ring with Conor would be great... I feel like I’m one of the best boxers in the UFC... You can give me top boxers, Adrien Broner, Mikey Garcia. I would love to get in the ring with them." Alexa Grasso A real gamer, comes from generations of Mexican Boxers (uncles were Boxers, great aunt was a pioneer in Women's Boxing in the 1950's), 25 years old, needs seasoning Jorge Masvidal Instinctive, super slick Boxing by MMA standards, elusive and has a good chin, street guy, Cuban-descent ... TBC...

Make Them! :dunno: Sadly Boxers fighting UFC fighters would do better than most of these boxing match ups as far as Ratings and PPV Buys :nonono: You bring MMA and Boxing Fans together that makes a lot of money...of course they won't be as big as Mayweather vs McGregror

I blame Paulie. What a f**cking p**ssy. Yeah, same here. Paulie is a f**king idiot.

Wilder doing bare knuckle is a scary thought. He'd probably obliterate both his hand and his opponent's skull in the first round

Lol, they should just jump over to the best combat sport and stop talking about it then.

is whaIt is what it is, the talent level is lower then ever so it is getting pretty even

Cigano has always fancied himself a "Boxer" If he gets destroyed, like most people would think, so be it. But lets see it happen and not just speculate, not just talk about it. Heavyweight is the perfect weight class to watch a boxing match between mma vs boxing. I'd give Cigano a huge chance vs most of the top names in the divison. He can bang thats for sure. The question is, can he last 12 w/o tiring out? I blame Paulie. What a f**cking p**ssy. Paulie went WAAAAAY overboard with his comments b4 his fight vs Lobov. Especially those against mma fighters and fans. Then he gets in there and fought like a bit.ch.

They need the best guy to step up and fight someone like GGG or canelo. They wont know what hit them.
