Comments Thread For: Clay Collard Shocks David Kaminsky With Split Decision Win

That's exactly it. Until he fights a fighter that uses angles or is a counter puncher with serious pop, these fighters don't seem to know how to keep him off them. The fact that he gets in close and then just starts throwing uppercuts, hooks, straights, whatever, makes it difficult up close. Once you get a sniper type fighter who can punish him and keep him moving, it'll be Clay's kryptonite. For now though I'm loving his run.

Let's not forget these these are young guys he's facing while he's already like 33-34 so he's kind of old for boxing years. The fact that he is most likely been sent in as a sacrificial lamb for all these undefeated guys and giving them hell, taking that "0" away, is more than anyone could ask of him.

He's only 27

Oh not bad then at all. He's not even in his prime then technically. For some reason I thought he was in his 30s. Thought I looked that up after his fight against Raymond.

Why do guys like you always do this just admit some mma fighters have good enough hands to beat some boxers.This dude has no amateur background and was an mma fighter way before boxing so even if he boxed at 10 it was probably casually. Guys like you always try to save face when a guy who didnt start out boxing wins just be happy he can entertain, not cherry pick and brings action pact fight.

Agreed. The best white American boxers are like 90+% in MMA now. Guys like Poirier, Gaethje, Dillashaw, Garbrandt etc are way better boxers than Collard.

i wouldnt say that since Europe has a lot of talent but the american white boxers yeah. I think caleb plant is the only american white boxer who is a champion i might be wrong since there 50 belts.
