    The MMA transition only works for HWs....

    Because for the last 20yrs HWs have been big clumsy skill-less guys. Even the so called "skilled" HW Tyson Fury looks goofy and amateurish when you compare his skills to the lower weights. Ngannu just exposed that.

    The lower weight MMA guys will have absolutely zero chance at doing anything in boxing.

    MMA HWs might continue to have a chance at succeeding in boxing if they pursue that route.

      just give mma guys their respect... in no way shape or form are the top mma guys better than the top boxing guys in a boxing match but their skill level is respectable so stop making excuses for boxing and give mma guys their credit. can a boxer cross over and have success in an mma match?

          Iono but that counter left hook Francis dropped Fury with was a beauty

          Why did Fury who been boxing his entire life throw such a wide right

            but conor had success against floyd. i dont care who won the fight. you said mma guys crossing over to boxing only have success in the HW division because the HW division in boxing are not that skill compared to the lower weights... i remember when fury beat wilder, mofos on here was saying fury is a slick boxer, etc...

              I never said that.

              I said succeeding...getting beat up and stopped is hardly that. Did he win a couple rds against an old washed up Floyd sure but nothing like the real success Ngannu had against Tyson.

                it's because size is the most important thing in boxing. it's the reason for Tyson FUry's reign. Fury's biggest skillset is smothering his opponents with his fat and weight. he leans and wrestles you until the 8-9th round, then he beats your tired shell.

                didn't happen against MMA champ Ngannou tho. who matched him in size and overcame him with power.




                could tank davis beat Ngannou? hell no. Tank's been boxing his entire life doe. It doesn't matter. SIZE >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. skill

                  I mean, he did answer you. Let me make his answer more clear:

                  Conor did not have success with Floyd.


                  Now let me expand his answer for you:

                  If you understood the structure of punching then no one would have to explain how unsuccessful Conor actually was.



                  Let me now drop a closer:

                  Did Floyd say he thinks Conor can't punch?
                  Did Floyd say he's going to exploit Conor's inability to damage him and use his own ability to cause damage to get Conor out of there?
                  What happened?

                  Exactly what Floyd said would happen. So what ****ing success are you claiming McNuggets had? He won the rounds Floyd said he'd give Conor to prove Conor can't punch? You ****ing serious?

                    Conor did very well against Floyd


                    it's due to his size. look at size difference.






                    this is why there are weight classes.




                    why did a youtuber go to a draw vs Floyd? Size
