How in the hell do they really believe that crap will surpass boxing...any shmo off the street could kayo liddel,,,

MMA UFC
It was just a freak result. Judah got kayoed by Tyszu with one punch in the second round of their fight and I don't remember people saying it meant that all boxers were shit

I'm sure if there would have been a count in force he would have got up. You also have to remember it's MUCH easier to get hit in MMA as the gloves are not like big cushions on your hands and don't block virtually everything that comes near you.

Finally, of course boxers are better punchers and better at defending a punch as that's all they have to deal with. When an opponent comes at Floyd he knows all they are going to try and do is punch him. If he also had to factor in that they might try and kick him, elbow him or make a grab for him and try and throw him then I'm sure he'd be even more of a runner than he is now
judah wasn't the face of the sport either and they actually fought the whole first round first..judah got caught because he got cocky after winning the first round...liddell got caught because he's slow and didn't bring his hand back in time...

besides that would be the tactic if mma vs boxer ever happened because the mma fighter knows that if the boxer lands its over so the best way to beat him would be to pull him down on the ground and hope to get him in a submission hold...but floyd is one of the best fighter's in the world in terms of footwork so i also have no doubt that he'd escape the first couple of attempt to take him down and he'd probably land a punch and wobble matt hughes then you know the rest...

(hating) such an overused term..

anyway that crap was a dissappointment i hope that wasn't supposed to be their version of "the world awaits" because that was some major B.S....i don't see why they just don't call it wrestling...but if a true greco-roman wrestler was in mma he probably rule the sport...
