Basically no MMA guy can box in the top 10 IMO. None.
All you do is look at their weight and then you think oh boy, no chance in that division.
Plus they have the wrong stance completely.
I think Edgar would do good in boxing. I don't think either any fighter from either sport could go to the others and take out a top 10 guy.
Has he turned pro or something?
Not yet but he plans to Vargas was said to be a possible opponent. I am a big fan of MMA and i disagree i think his boxing is overrated he struggled to beat a fighter 15 pounds lighter than him who also had a broken hand.
Are you talkin about the whoopin he put on KJ Noons.
Whoopin? hardly a whoopin considering he was getting tooled in the second round then Noons broke both his foot and hand and he still couldn't put him away btw it was a close fight alot had it scored 48-47 some even scored it for Noons.
MMA did pretty good in the US.
Not so much in the UK though.
Yeah the uk event's the UFC put on this year where terrible but still a good year for MMA.

boxing will be fine
Haye plans to retire in a year so i doubt he will be still around in several years.
If the fight gets made i will def be going anyone know what the ticket prices would be? and do they have an idea of when they want it to go down? possibly may?
Diaz is a good boxer in MMA but far from the best boxer anyone who thinks he is the best are just his fans. Vargas is shot. I expect Vargas to handle Nick early but i don't think he will be able to keep it up it will be close unless he finishes Diaz early.
You have no idea wtf you are talking about Brock a ppv attraction? yes Fedor? no he hasn't even been on a successful PPV and isn't very well known to the casual fan.
The stars in MMA who can consistently pull in ppv numbers are guys like GSP, Penn, Anderson, Rampage and so on and there is several guys right now that are going to be huge ppv draws in the future like Jones, Aldo, Pettis. The UFC consistently on a monthly basis does between 300k-1million buys can't say the same thing for boxing when only 2-3 shows a year can pull that off.
The UFC just smashed it's attendance record selling 50,000 tickets for an event in Canada headlined by GSP wait till GSP vs Anderson they will show Manny how to fill the Cowboy stadium (if the fights ends up there)
Did Floyd cheated on the scale to win over Marquez?
Doesn't pacman do the same to everyone? incase you forgot.
Good article i agree with most of it even though i am a Mayweather fan.
Pacquiao sold 1.85 million PPV's in 2010. Gayweather sold 1.4 million.
Pacquiao also outsold him the 2 years before that.
Thats 3 consecutive years that Pacquiao has outsold Gayweather.
Pacquiao will surely outsell Fraud in 2011.
Pacquiao makes more "Money," then "Money" Mayweather. Get it? Got it? Good.
Boxings P4P king and Cash Cow is Manny Pacquiao and there is no debate.
Lol in 2010 Mayweather only had 1 fight Pacquiao had 2 and again in 2009 Mayweather only had 1 fight while Pacquiao had 2 and Mayweather never even fought in 2008.
Mayweather vs Hatton outsold Pacquiao vs Hatton
Mayweather vs DLH outsold Pacquiao vs DLH
Mayweather vs Marquez outsold both of Pacquiao's fights against Marquez
So i guess there is a debate.
