BREAKING | Tyron Woodley to Train Floyd Mayweather in MMA

[The Big Dunn]

LOL right.

Its gonna be great reading in 10 or 20 years when the books about Floyd's career with more hindsight get released about all this sh^t that made Floyd who he became.

Exactly. Everytime he puts out a pic or video of him near an MMA ring or wearing MMA gloves about 100k fools go bezerk-he's trying to steal the spotlight, he's jealous, he's broke-LMFAO!!!!

Those are the 1st guys to call the cable company "how much for Floyd fight?"

[Mimms]

its one of the many different arts, its not the only one.

so you saying a karate black belt would do good in mma?

Are you ******ed with that question?

[Mimms]

I disagree, Floyd is such a good boxer because of the time he has put into it, just because he is a GREAT boxer, doesn't mean he can master MMA.

Name 1 person that has mastered MMA...

I'll wait.

Are you ******ed with that question?

a karate black belt with no other mma experience smart guy! you telling me he'll be successful with just a karate background?

[WesternChamp]

what do you think a karate class consist of?

just punching, blocking, kicking and yelling?

those are called mcdojos and are completely different than a real martial arts school

look at machida's background before he stepped into the ufc. karate is only one of his many skills. he's been training mma for years before stepping into the ufc!!

Lyoto began training in karate at the age of 3 and earned his black belt at the age of 13.[7] He also began training in sumo at the age of 8 and Brazilian jiu-jitsu and boxing at sixteen. He won a number of amateur karate tournaments, including the 2001 Pan American Karate tournament.[8] Later he travelled to Thailand to study Muay Thai, to Japan to study grappling at the NJPW Dojo and finally to United States to pursue his UFC career.

If Floyd can also be successful in WWE, I don't see why he can't excel at UFC.

Floyd is only 41. Ray Mercer was 48 when he knocked out a former 2x UFC Heavyweight Champion in 9 seconds.

machida, gsp, has karate background as their main skills BUT they transition into mma before getting into the ufc. that's how they were successful.

if they would have jumped right into the ufc with just a karate background then they wouldnt be successful.

this is what im trying to explain to you since you said floyd will do well in mma with just a boxing background.

of course and isn't that what it says that floyd will do?

train on his ground game etc for at least a few months before anything.

look at machida's background before he stepped into the ufc. karate is only one of his many skills. he's been training mma for years before stepping into the ufc!!

you asked if they had karate background....

of course they cross train ALOT of karatekas do.....

its the mcdojos that believe their ONE single style is the best etc

yes, not professionally. have you mr. expert "age dont matter in mma" ? LOL.

of course Ive been in martial arts for about 15 years now and I spar regularly when I can

[bigjavi973]

I think you are confusing karate stuff......
