Roy is completely deluded to think he's going to be able to handle elbows and kicks from Silva, and throw enough good ones of his own with such minimal training and expertise by comparison.
Very sad if this happens, he doesn't know what's good for him.
I'm not saying that this would necessarily happen to Roy, but he needs to take notice of the situation he's getting into.
Ignashov was a true badass. So relaxed, some would even consider him lazy in the ring. And insane reflexes, I once saw him dodging a roundhouse kick and instantly kicking his opponent in a thigh while his opponent was in a halfway of his spin after the roundhouse.
Not having kicks or knees isnt always an automatic game over.
the boxers in these kickboxing matches are Francois Botha and Virgil Kalakoda...
even at his best, Botha was getting killed by Lewis and Wladimir. this fat version of him couldnt even beat Clifford Etienne.
and Kalakoda? http://boxrec.com/list_bouts.php?hum...6924&cat=boxer
Couldnt even beat a guy that was 17-9 in boxing, and got KOed in the first round by a guy that was 17-20...
journeyman, at best.
and yet he took Buakaw to a very close decision, and Buakaw was one of the best guys in the world in the lower weight classes in kickboxing.
there are ways of dealing with kicks, knees and elbows. just need to know how.
oh, and mind you, the kickboxers in these videos are top level.
Hopkins would win against Silva if kicks and ellbows are allowed.
Why? Because he already uses his ellbows, head, lowblows and tries to stand on his opponents feet.
holding and hitting
Hits to the back of the head,ass,leg
Rubs his head along cuts and also uses his thumb to open cuts more ^^
Hopkins is a mean ***** but i love him.

Still, he doesn't know how to DEFEND the kicks, no one's kicking him in the boxing ring -> same result as with RJJ.
