    Even with a weak Heavyweight Division, I doubt that Fedor would be able to compete with Klit's jab and ring intellegence. I dont even think he would be able to hang with David Haye.

      Well I'm pretty sure that's /thread. Just changed both of our views. Haha.

          If he thought he had a chance as a boxer he would not be an MMA fighter earning $100,000's instead of $1,000,000's.
          Matt Skelton would beat this bum in a stand up fight.

            Fedor was hurt bad by Fujita, was being outboxed by Noguiera, was rocked by jabs from CroCop and even got his eye split open by a natural middleweight(MMA) in Matt Lindland fairly recently. The only guy out of this list that has any boxing ability at all is CroCop and maybe sort of Noguiera, and CroCop is mostly known for his kicks and Nog is really just a submission guy that has good enough boxing for mma.

            all due respect to Fedor, but he he doesnt have that great of standup, especially not in Professional Boxing. his standup works fairly well in mma, but Sambo is his #1 thing, and he knows it as well.

            and, in general, mma guys cant transition to boxing that great. even the top tenish strikers in mma really cant get past journeymen in boxing. I hope that didnt sound disrespectful, but its basically the truth.
