MMA fighters cannot succeed in Boxing

[mofo2]

I think it goes both ways....boxers would struggle going into MMA....I don't know why there is this "Boxing is Superior" attitude with boxing fans who don't care for MMA,when its all said and done MMA fighters are more skilled than there boxing counterparts when you take into account all the different individual skills needed when they fight...boxing being just a small part of it...I think anyone who has trained in one or the other for years will always edge out the other if they try and cross over,this is just the usual recycled bull**** thread...

Most MMA fighters have no amateur experience whatsoever so no reasonable person should expect them to excel in boxing especially at the lower weight classes.

i dont think you understand what we're saying. i get what YOU'Re trying to say but you provided a link to a dude who has yet to prove he is SUCCESSFUL by you're own standards since you say there hasnt been a boxer that has beat "great" fighters in their first 8 fights. knowwhatimsaying?

my point is, an MMA fighter would not succeed at the highest level in Boxing. If they could, we'd be seeing cross overs. The same goes for Boxers in MMA but that isnt the topic of the thread.
