Is Kermit Cintron the right man?

[Technical_Skill]

The thing with Cintron is that he is a wrestling state champion. There is a difference between a guy who learns the mechanics of a thing and someone who trains at something from an early age. Its like comparing Rahman to Lewis. You can see the smoothness and fluidity of Lewis while Rahman looks as if he is counting in his head (1, 1, 1-2, 1).

A big puncher will probably do better in MMA than a slick boxer with limited power. That and the fact that Cintron's wrestling will help Cintron avoid getting taken down makes him probably the best choice at the lower weights.

Spot on, cintron has an Wrestling style background, he may have a chance, not sure if white wanted to risk it.

Well if Cintron is serious, here is how to solve it. He can go fight in smaller, local shows. Those promoters would KILL to have a boxing champ on their cards. And if Cintron indeed is good he will compile a good MMA record and then call out Dana White/Sean Sherk again.

.....but then he doesn't make an easy 2 mil.

I meant if he wants to fight Sherk(or any UFC champ) on principle. I know the money will be less than 2 mil. But, I will say this, BIG names who headline SMALLER shows can make more then lower and midlevel UFC guys do. I know this for a fact.
