I whole heartedly agree with the guy. He's a true discipline of martial arts, its more than just the metaphysical. If someone like Brock Lesnar can be called a martial artist and have a championship title fight with 3 professional fights then I should be able to call myself a boxer since I've spent many hours shadowboxing in the showers and my bedroom .

well, he's right.
but then again all the best fighters are usually legit martial artists first.
anderson, penn, fedor, bendo, machida, even nick diaz. they are real martial artists. black belts before ever getting into mma.

and it's not unusual that judokas take this view.
judo was created to be a cleaner, safer more sport oriented discipline.

He would have a better career as an action hero than in the UFC anyway.
He would get smashed in the UFC by guys like Cain, Overeem and Dos Santos.
Heck, I'm not even sure he can beat Tim Sylvia.
