Thread: Cintron Wants The UFC

Haha, that guy is crazy. Can he really wrestle? If he is a formiddable wrestler, and has a legit takedown defense, he could be hell.

Sean Sherk is the champ at 155lbs, and he would completely destroy Kermit UFC rules.

Yeah probably. But the element that makes it exciting is Cintron can do him in 1 punch without question. So if he had a good takedown defense, it might be interesting for a minute or so.

.....let him do it!!!! I hope Cintron beats the shit out of some MMA punks!


Oh but wait, does he have enough tribal tats to compete with the likes of the MMA fighters?!?!?!



bastards

Cintron and every other boxer whose carrer is still on track should focus on their own sport and forget about MMA.

Give them no extra publicity! I wouldn't even say the letters outloud.

....I say only fight MMA or UFC if one of the other UFC guys does a boxing match as well

When San Shou from China wanted to fight Thai kick boxers they met inbetween the sports. I say they either have a boxer do a fight with an MMA guy in boxing with 3 months to prepare then vice virsa.

I'd love to see some crossover between the two sports.

I think combat sports will only have reached their zenith when there is a true no holds barred all rules go combat competition and literally the top fighters from every sport compete.

How awesome to finally see for certain who is the greatest fighter ever.

Well there are supposedly masters in china who can kill a person without touching them which would give them a slip advantage , but anyways its not really fair for boxers who would be completely fucked against kicks. I've foughten very good boxers who get screwed because they plant their feet. Mercer tried to cross over to K-1, but without his shoes on he couldn't drive off the mat to get any power, but with shoes on he couldn't kick so was at a huge disadvantage when his opponents would use leg kicks to deaden his legs.

look at him trying to pick up on the publicity that white tried to create by mentioning mayweather

BLOOMFIELD, NJ (May 8, 2007) �" Floyd Mayweather, Jr doesn’t want to battle a UFC champion. No problem. IBF World Welterweight Champion and former high school/college wrestling star Kermit Cintron would like to accept the challenge from UFC President Dana White, it was announced today by Main Events CEO Kathy Duva. Cintron, who will be defending his IBF crown against mandatory challenger Walter Matthysse on July 14 in Atlantic City , NJ , would like to battle the UFC champion following his June IBF title defense.

“I want the fight,” said Cintron. “I can wrestle. I can box. I can beat those UFC fighters at their own game. Tell Mr. White to make me an offer and I’ll take on his guy after I fight Matthysse on June 30.”

Cintron (27-1, 25 KO’s) captured the vacant IBF crown on October 28, 2006, when he destroyed Mark Suarez in six rounds (TKO 6). The 27-year-old Reading , PA resident by way of Carolinas, Puerto Rico once finished 10th at the NJCAA Wrestling Championships. As a senior in high school he was offered full wrestling scholarships to Wisconsin University and Ohio State University.
