Mostly a brilliant sub grappler (Messed up the vaunted Brock Lesnar in their first meeting with a nifty heel hook right outta Humbolt, a UFC champion), Mir has worked hard on his Boxing for years and years in his quest for well roundedness, and ranks in the best dozen MMA rules heavyweights all-time (Modern MMA = Short time, granted). He was convinced that with standing grappling allowed, the small gloves and small ring space he had it figued out. Pulev, still a top 20 guy, only had to clip him as his errand, and clip him he did. Zoinks!. If Pulev had wanted to, he could have murdered Mir. Weird.
    You seem to be a strong fan of MMA as well.

    Who fades faster in their careers, MMA fighters, or boxers? I lean toward MMA. I felt that, man, once an MMA fighter is shot, he is really gone. I mean, it seemed my grandmother might have KO'd the last version of Randy Couture to glove up, and many other cauliflowert heroes.

    Still, I seem to be operating by isolated examples. Do you have a theory or feeling on how fading might differ in the two sports, if it does? Is there more **** in one sport than the other? Is it worse to get hit pretty hard by a hard surface, or is it worse to be hit awfully hard by a somewhat softer surface? The question of course calls for massive speculation, because we cannot perform the actual scientific experiments required, since no one wants to volunteer to be slammed in the head over and over, even if it is in a scientifically controlled manner. And we do not even have it numerically parameterized what we mean by "Hard," and "Somewhat softer," surfaces.

    P.S. The formal expression for the area of equilateral triangles is: [(√3)/4]a2=A, where a is a side and A is the area.

    Also, I am not certain Kublat and Mir were fighting in an equilateral triangle. The ring may have been narrower. I have to watch it again and pay attention to the space the fighters have in every direction. The difference from our situation is, we are working with an already known area of only 100 square feet in contemplating a replacement for the 10x10 ring. What is the best way as the sport organizers to utilize those 100 square feet? The normal 20x20 professional boxing ring of course encloses 400 square feet.

    Anyway, the query of this post mainly involves fading, and its rate of occurrence.

      Thank for acknowledging my post. You've put a bit down to unpack there. Career duration/Prime performance duration between two Prizefighting rules-sets is measurable data, which is the advised course over my hot air. Certainly both sports offer ample opportunities for driving a healthy body towards malfunction.

        When your main leg exercise is jogging you will have smaller legs than the man who lifts weights.

          While we are on gams, we might as well mention Asian calves. They are thicker. This is unequivocal and not speculation or theory. P4P, Asians have thicker legs (especially calves) than whites or blacks. Fact. Any halfwit who screams racist over this, would scream racist if I noticed Chinese have straighter hair than blacks. Look at the size of Pacquiao's gams.
