Why don't top UFC guys step into the boxing ring?

[intoccabile]

This has to be the dumbest thing that I have ever heard in the history of the ***ing internet!

How the *** would you know and how are you even qualified to make that observation.

Have you ever wrestled? How many times did you see Brock wrestle when he was in collage? Have you ever Boxed or wrestled in your life? Do you even know how to box? Are you an actual athlete yourself? how long have you been a boxing trainer for? How long have you been a boys wrestling coach?



These are the things that you should ask yourself before you make completely outlandish comments that make you look like an ignorent fool!

Seriously you guys will just make **** up in your tiny mosquito brains just to **** on MMA a sport that has nothing to ***ing do with Boxing whatsoever.

I repeat, if you read my first post, you'd have seen that I won the state twice here in Pennsylvania and have rolled around with some very established athletes. Currently I am pursuing boxing, training out of upper darby with Nard, Garcia, and Jones.

Watch any collegiate footage of lesnar. A complete powerhouse shy of technique.

No one is putting down MMA, I train out of an MMA facility and LOVE the sport. I was just stating the obvious, wrestling is very "natural". We roll around with our brothers and things as kids.. many of the things we learn on the mat are things we knew already, just didn't perfect through repetition or have a name for. I was applying rare naked chokes to people when I was 7 years old, for example. It was the "sleeper hold" to me. This is all natural stuff, man.

Get real, and stop being so testy. I'm not being ignorant or speaking on anything I know nothing about. Wrestling is a very natural sport.. the majority of the things that go on in the mat are pretty self explanatory.

First and foremost, I'm a fan of both sports. Obviously, Boxing is numero uno, but I still watch and enjoy UFC/MMA on a regular basis. Regarding the Boxing vs MMA argument, you have Joe Rogan, Dana White, and other UFC personalities criticising boxing at every opportunity, declaring that boxing is a dying sport, mixed martial artists are more skillful, and if a boxer stepped into the octagon they would get destroyed. That may well be the case, and I don't give anybody south of Mayweather and Pacquaio a chance in the octogon against a top UFC competitor. However at least boxers are willing to step up to the plate and defend the sport. James Toney is fighting a 'legend' of the UFC in his first ever matchup. No tune ups, no easy ride to the top. He is old school and taking on the best. Now a top boxer is stepping into the realm of UFC, when is a top mixed martial artist going to step in the ring and take on a legend of our sport? If Toney loses against Couture, it's all well and good for Dana White to declare that mixed martial artists are superior to boxers when the boxer is the fish out of water, ignoring the fact that there are no UFC competitors willing to step into the boxing ring to settle the real truth.

How about a boxing match involving the UFC's best and boxing's best?

BJ Penn vs Sergio Martinez
Anderson Silva vs Andre Ward
GSP vs Pacquaio
Lesnar vs Haye

It's time for the UFC's best to step into the boxing ring. Toney and Mercer have done it on the other foot, now its their turn.

These guys can't boxe, i like George St-Pierre in his sport, but he wouldn't last a round in a boxing ring with a top Boxer. A Top boxer wouldn't be able to wrestle with him either and it's ok like that. These are different sports that needs years of training to master. A good exemple would be trying to play hockey when your skating is weak. I play hockey and that European guy who play Pro Soccer and knew how to skate wanted to try it so he came in a game but he stopped playing after only 30 seconds... he was impressed by the speed... it was dangerous for him but he didn't know before trying the real thing...
