Ol Timmy made the mistake of slugging with a slugger. Timmy was never known for grappling. Trust me, a true grappler gets a boxer in the ring and it isn’t lasting half an MMA round. Since you mentioned Mercer, let’s talk about his non boxing journey…
in Kick boxing he lost both of his only two matches he lost due to leg kicks and then lost by quitting to his only shot in the match (a head kick).
His first foray into MMA was a loss by choke to Kimbo Slice. Kimbo Sluce wasn’t even a grappler but still choked him out. He then goes into fight a raw slugger in Sylvia.
Had he continued his career he would have played it smart and tried every way possible to continue targeting sluggers. No way in hell a boxer wins in an MMA match against a diverse fighter just like a real MMA fighter doesn’t beat a real deal boxer. Get a boxer to the ground and it’s game over…keep an MMA fighter on his feet and it’s lights out for the MMA fighter
