Comments Thread For: Ellerbe: McGregor Did UFC Proud, Definitely Has Future in Boxing

[louisneo7]

Which other UFC fighters do you guys think could compete in boxing?

Tyrone Woodley is one for me

Only White seems to see Conor was useless.Ellerbe just smells money and would like some part of him no doubt.

I'm glad the circus has left town ....I just hope it's for good.

If you mean that have some genuine boxing ability and could probably compete at a somewhat respectable level then Cody Garbrant.

No he doesn't.
His self belief and confidence are a major asset to him but he knows deep down now that being a ****er in the octagon doesn't translate to the realm of boxing. He hasn't the power to compete at this level.
I don't think he has a chance against any of the top ten from 147-160, I'd even pick Paulie to beat him. There's no way he's starting at the bottom and taking 6 round fights against winnable opponents to get his fundamentals in order.
Stick to mma, though I am temporarily grateful for him keeping cotto and his ****ty, irrelevant fight out of the news.

Most guys don't land effective punches on Floyd, his problems are stamina and lack of experience.

I wouldn't be surprised if he signed with TMT on a per-fight basis.

He carries too much muscle. His inefficient technique also tires him too quickly. He's not a boxer.
