Cintron would stand the best chance in MMA as he was a star wrestler as a youth.

Can't believe this thread actually made 11 pages. I guess it's good to have people like dino around who stir s--- up.

Agreed.

MMA is dominant to Boxing in terms of pure fighting. Therefore, an MMA practitioner would beat the **** out of a pure boxer with no other discipline. Klitschko would get the **** beat out of him by Randy, Silvia or any of the top HW MMA fighters.

I would love to see Wlad fight Sylvia...

If a boxer fought in MMA ofcourse the guy more suited for the sport would be favored.

But the boxer would always have the punchers chance.

I already posted this, but this Midget knocked out a pretty good MMA fighter.

How about this for a punchers chance?

Arlovski's first MMA fight vs Datsik.
Datsik has got to be one of the weirdest dudes to ever compete in MMA. Rolling wheel kicks and windmill haymakers.

Everytime AA gets KO'd or KO's someone it will be one for the highlight reels. Wish he would go back to his old ways but he seems like a much more cautious fighter now and for a good reason. No one wants to be KO'd like that.

I think a boxer adapts alot more easily to MMA than an MMA fighter adapts to boxing.... You look at MMA fighters for example some started out as Muay Thai fighters who just trained for a short time in Jiu Jitsu or some other dicipline and can compete at a high level in mma... Boxing takes years to refine. If you compare the hands of most pro ranked boxers with that of the best stand up mma fighter, the boxer would be far superior, Compare Lidel with Tommy Morrison or Tyson with Rampage. Look at what happened when Kimbo Slice fought Rey Mercer... Kimbo a known striker had to learn a ground game to beat a far superior striker. If these other dudes can learn a ground game why can't a boxer.... Boxers are athletic, flexible enough, and have a high resistance to pain to learn kicking techniques, ground techniques.. A boxer would most likely be in better physical shape than someone who fough mma and should not have a problem adapting in a short period of time to the MMA game.... But without grappling or kicking skills I think a boxer would be at too big of a disadvantage unless it was againts a stand up fighter.
