      The only guy who's pulled that feat in boxing was a ridiculously talanted RJJ in his prime against not so good of an opponent.

          come on that was better then a tyson uppercut imo, i didnt see anything wrong with form or delivery. but since it came all the way from the nose bleed section how the hell did the other guy still get hit with it.

          i think they should name it the superman uppercut

                ya i'm going but i got centre seats just off the floor for $150 each. . . cant wait should be good.

                never been to rama for boxing so i dont know how its going to be. went to bute/andrade with $90 seats and i was really happy with them.

                i hope its a good show, have you heard anything about the unders? i know that Kielsa vs. Olibilawe will be fighting any others? i guess i shouldnt get my hopes too high for the unders.

                  I've never heard they had the best strikers. I don't think you could go in any MMA gym and find a fighter that says that MMA fighters have the best (hand) stiking abilities. They are humble enough to admit that, believe me. Pro boxers have by far the best hand striking ability and all MMA fighters know that. You do have several MMA guys that have better than average hand skills though. Not many but some. Many with terrible hand skills though. They are the most well rounded combat fighters though
