Do top boxers feels emasculated knowing even an average MMA fighter could take them

[M Bison]

Boxer beats a MMA fighter 8 out of 10 times because an average street fight lasts 6 seconds and most of the times the guy who can throw hands better wins it. This nonsense that MMA guy beats a boxer in a street fight is just a byproduct of MMA fans' lifelong inferiority complex and a little ret@rded brother syndrome.

From my real life experience, an average MMA fan knows **** all about fighting. Average boxing fan knows little to nothing but that's still better than a MMA fan.

Lastly, Tim Sylvia vs Ray Mercer. Or Mayweather vs McGregor. Conor was supposed to be one of MMA's best strikers. Yet he can't punch for **** and got himself emasculated by a retired old man.

Poor examples, It would have made more sense if the fight with McGregor and Floyd had some stipulations that allowed different strikes that are used in MMA i.e. kicks allowing high or just low kicks, elbows and the clinch. However, the fight with Conor was pure boxing we all know if it was inside a MMA cage or out in the streets Connor would destroy him inside 5 minutes. Look at James Toney Vs. Randy Couture since you like to compare past it former UFC heavyweights fighting a past it Ray Mercer.

Fact is anyone can shoot in and try to get a takedown, most boxers won't have a clue what to do when someone grabs both your legs and tosses you to the deck. They won't know how to defend transitions so inevitably the guy with MMA experience will get full mount and **** the guy up with relative ease.

In a street fight?

How could a top boxer really feel that secure and confident with himself, when he knows if it really came down to it, one on one outside of the ring and with no gloves on even an average level MMA fighter could have his way with him on the street?

A street fight is not an mma fight.

Lol, I love these comparison arguments.

I watch boxing because it's a sport. Like Tennis or whatever. It requires 1 particular skillset and the highest degree will show overall against lesser opponents. MMA you are a fighter of many trades and a master of none.

I'd rather have someone in my corner that master an art than someone that is Okay at everything.

With that said, a street fight, anything does go. While you MMA guys are trying to pretend your style is suppose to make a difference, the guy on the other side is grabbing a chair to slam over your damn ******ed forehead.

How often do you see a guy try to get a takedown in a street fight? How often you see them use only their fists?

Hell, even MMA fighters who's been in street fights always use their fists. I wonder why.

LOL @ McGregor destroying Mayweather in a street fight. He'd be lying unconscious after being hit with a quick combo by one of the most accurate boxers of all time in the middle of his takedown attempt.

MMA vs Boxing is such a ****** argument.

I'm not a mixed martial artist, but I do train Muay Thai. It's great to see the level of respect some muay thai practitioners have for boxing. Where I train, there are signed pictures by Mosley, the owner took a pic with Holyfield, and wears Ali shirts. Lots of respect for boxing. I never hear anyone at all talk about 'this style vs that style is better.'

People simply have no respect. It's usually people who are fans of this sport that dont even go running at least, that have these opinions. Granted everyone is entitled to their own opinion, some people simply have no respect.

Don’t think top boxers would really are considering they’re making 5x or more the money that top MMA fighters make.

Why do idiots over glorify street fights? I could take out Deontay Wilder with a loaded gun in my hand. Knives, weapons, other people joining in, that's how street fights go. I'd take a top current prime boxer to beat a UFC guy even in their sport.

nah.... Floyd will get KTFO inside a minute in street fight vs connor. Why you or boxing fans always assume MMA guys will use takedown? it's dangerous using takedown in concrete or ashpalt, in many videos i see MMA guys often use kicks and knees in street fight rather than takedown.
