1 – 2 big name fighters in boxing as opposed to 10 – 20 big named fighters in mma. Mayweather talks shit cause he knows he doesn’t have to stand and be counted for. that’s why he stays in the ring and out of the cage. he can’t compete, physically or financially. the boxing world is his. mma would crush him to a nobody and he knows it!!!

I think the fight would be more competive than most mma fans think. Floyd mayweather could train for awhile working to sprawl and getting back up. Most people know that the ufc is oriented to help wrestlers out. No kicking a downed oppenent no kneeing after you block his take down. While conversly the wrestler can hold you on the ground and elbow the hell out of you. You also can not kick at his head from your back. I have all the respect for wrestlers myself being one. Those just do not make for good fights holding one guy down against the cage. I think floyd should call Dana’s bluff he would never co-promote to save his mother and makeing it worth floyds worth while what about your own mma fighters mr. white just keep paying them the peanuts you have been they should print how much money dana white takes in compared to the fighters doing all the work. Well like I stated earlier the fight would be more competitive than most people think. Look at what maurice smith did to mark coleman when he destroyed the notion of wrestlers dominating strikers.

What mayweather said is that, He can defeat any of ufc figthers, thats stupid, He never talk about rules, so ANY UFC figthers can kick his ass any time.

Anyone who is a real boxing fan will tell you that mayweather is a peice of shit. he runs away in the ring and waits until his opponent is tierd so he can come in with fast, but weak flurries. I hope he fights mma. I along with every boxing fan that I know would love to see this overrated chump get his ass handed to him.

[...] “Pretty Boy” has been vocal in the past about the supremacy of the sweet science over MMA, bashing then UFC light heavyweight champion, Chuck Liddell, prior to his blockbuster showdown with Oscar De La Hoya earlier this year. [...]

Come on Tyson would upper-cut any of those dudes up into the rafters. In boxing any of the great boxers murder any mma fighter 8 out of 10 times give mma benefit of doubt any athlete could get a lucky punch in. I will give you if they fight mma rules only couple boxers in history win 80% of time the other top boxers like PRETTY BOY, ROY JONES JR have 50 50 shot because of there hand speed alone.

Also, I’m watch Ultamite Fighter, on TV, and I think every one of those guys are a big joke! First of all, those idiots can’t even maintain their weight! It’s easy! I can’t believe that no one in MMA fighting can’t lose 2 to 3 pounds in two hours if they weigh in heavy in the morning!

I have come in over weight a few times but most of the time I did not. I know a few who would come in overweight all the time, but they lost the weight in two hours everytime! It’s called plastic bags, heated car, and a spit bucket! Plus, a lot of running.

Also, drinking alcohol and staying up late in a training camp?? You’re kidding, right???? No wonder why these idiots have trouble making weight! You do that in a boxing camp, you’re most likely kicked off the team because that only tells the boxing coaches one thing…you are not serious and the coaches are wasting their time with you.

Hell, most boxers won’t even have sex withing two weeks of a fight or tournament. You might laugh at that, but that’s how serious they are…. I don’t see most MMA fighter, that I have seen, taking their fights serious. If you do that, that could be dangerous for you.

[quote comment="38633"]People keeps saying its like apples an oranges…remember the FIRST UFCs had tried to include ALL martial disciplines..INCLUDING boxing, and that went horrifically wrong.

So, people need to get that apples and oranges thing out of thier heads…strict any discipline wont last long in the UFC at all.[/quote]

That boxer, who fought Gracy in that fight, was an idiot. He certainly wasn’t an elite fighter. I’ve never even heard of that guy until I watched that tape. And I kept track of all the top boxers back then! And he was a number 1 contender??? I say bullshit. Dana’s a liar.

I’ve seen amature fighters that would have done a better job! I would have done a better job of fighting Gracy, than that idiot, and I was only a 132 pound amature boxer. I was a good boxer and was on the US team for a while but I would never concider myself elite.

I have yet seen MMA fighters have to speed, quickness, and deadly like strikes of even the top boxers in amature…not alone the elite boxers in Pro. I have also yet seen an MMA fighter beat any elite boxer. Yeah, Dana might have boxed before but has he ever become an elite boxer? Has he ever become an elite boxer in amature boxing?? I’ve seen him box on TV and my guess is no.

I’m not saying that boxing is more a deadly art than any other. Yeah, some boxer would be taken out by MMA fighters. However, there are some elite boxers, out there, that would mop the floor with the top MMA fighter. Just because of the speed, power, and accuracy of these boxers.

Also, you MMA fighters and fight fans are confusing MMA fights to real fights…when it’s not even close. MMA fights still have rules. I remember when a wrestler, from Minnasota, tried taking me down because of an argument. I was sitting in my chair and didn’t even have a chance to get to my feet! The first thing I did was jam both of my finger in his eye sockets! And I bith a chunk of of his arms too. Next thing I know, he was sreaming for his friends to help him out….That’s when I got my ass kicked….by all of his fucken friends….I hope they die!

By anyway…Rampage was saying that boxing wasn’t fighting and MMA was….he’s wrong….neither are. The real fighters are in the Gulf right now.

The first UFC’s did have all those strict dicipines..Boxing vs judo vs..whatever else…But none of the boxers were prize fighters..

Mayweather would beat any of these people Dana White would throw at him…But he’ll make more money fighting some no name boxer than ALL MMA fighters combined over the next 5 years…So what would be the point?

And if White has the money to pay Mayweather…Why are the MMA fighters not getting bigger pieces?
