Comments Thread For: Whyte Confident He Can KO Any Top UFC Heavyweight, Slams Ngannou

[Kannabis Kid]

Whyte may wanna try becoming a champ in 1 before he thinks about both. As far as him beating Stipe I dont know about it. In a boxing ring yeah its logical but him going to UFC could be embarrassing at best. I dont know much about UFC but I know enough to know while he is throwing punches he may get kicked in the face or power slammed and beat to death.

I think out of any top level boxer at the moment he has the best shot due to his K-1 background so he knows how to block kicks.

I wouldn't favor him against someone like Stipe or Cormier who have excellent wrestling but I'm pretty sure he could beat Ngannou inside the cage who I like as a fighter devastating knockout puncher but he has no stamina and relies too much on it he also has a decent submission game that would give him a chance against Whyte if he could take him down but he doesn't use it too often.

I think Big Baby would do good also but I don't think he can make the 265 UFC heavyweight limit anymore.

The ones that talk the most usually do the least

In Whyte's case, the one that talks the most has cement feet and weighed 271 lbs in his last fight against Wach. That's our WBC #1 contender

Whyte would flatten any of those ufc heavyweights as soon as he landed on them. It’s not a bad move for him actually. I think he would be dominant as long as he stayed in shape. When Ray Mercer landed on 2 time Ufc champion Tim Sylvia and knocked him spark out with one shot within seconds it showed what a world class boxer can do in the cage when he lands. Whyte has been there before in 3 combat sports. I’d actually prefer arch Ufc again if he went that route

boxing fans always bring this example up without knowing details that tim abused steroids heavily and got off them during that time which was his biggest weapon lol, also the fact Tim was more than 300 pounds for the fight. To be fair the fight can still count as a win but for that to be the hope of boxing is sad not every mma fighter is going to come in close to 400 pounds and be suffering from steroid abuse you should seek legit wins. Plus Whyte is a kickboxer/mma fighter who succeeded in boxing so pretty different scenario.

Whyte has no chance because everyone is going to be taking him down. No one is going to stand and strike with him. It would be like Couture Vs Toney.

Also it's just talk - like Tyson Fury. No boxer is going to be spending time practising kicks or wrestling when they should be preparing for the next boxing match,

USADA would ban him 2 years

Let's be real, for us boxing fans Whyte is our best bet cos of his MMA background. Still, his chance against MMA top heavies is slim as it goes.

Khabib would be round the back of this guy choking him out faster than a weasel up whytes trouser leg looking for his shrunken nuts.

He had a better shot to win a title there than any mma fighter against a world champion boxer

[famicommander]

Almost 30 boxing matches with 0 world titles
Over 20 kickboxing matches with 0 world titles

And now he thinks he can win a UFC title with only one MMA fight on his resume?

His MMA fight only lasted 12 seconds, so we didn't really see what kind of sport-specific skills he has.

Does he even have any wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Judo, elbow/knee striking, or ground and pound experience at all?
