It's time Boxing stepped to mma!!

[Hotsoup]

If the boxer hasn't properly trained to defend the takedown, defend from his guard or check leg kicks than in most cases a skilled MMA fighter will beat him. Not in all cases but in most.

But if a boxer trains and learns to do all those things i mentioned, he can absolutely compete with and destroy top MMA fighters.

Boxers with takedown defence=nightmare for wrestlers
K.J Noons vs Nick Diaz is a perfect example. Cro Cop vs. Mark Coleman also.

top MMA fighters make ~3mil a fight

I've never heard of a MMA fighter making 1 million dollars for a fight let alone 3.
Could you give some examples?

people confuse the disclosed purse that the UFC and all send to the commision as teh real figures, the PPV cuts and contract money are not disclosed. A few years ago, when Couture was involved in a lawsuit with the UFC over his pay, Dana White posted the actual checks they gave him for his fights and they were all 1+ million.

Brock Lesnar made 3 million dollars in his last fight agaisnt Mir, he made 2.3million for his fight against Couture. Fedor makes 3+million per fight

link to Lesnar making 3mil a fight (this is before sponsorships too)

as an example of why not to trust the disclosed purse pay that are released to the commision, when Fedor fought Tim Silvia at Affliction, Fedor's disclosed pay was only 300k while Silvia was 800k

No, It's time people stopped talking about MMA in a Boxing forum.

[-Swizzy-]

Why do ppl think when boxers get taken down they'll be like Ed-209 when he falls?

Everyone knows in a fight, the first thing that comes is the PUNCH...seriously how can a MMA guy get by a boxers jab with an uppercut or right hook waitin to come in if they try to jump at them

you clearly don't know anything about MMA.
