    VD, I'm thinking you really don't watch much MMA. I bet there are many MMA fighters who have accomplished more than you in boxing. What was your highest accomplishment? A boxer can not have the same form in an MMA fight because the strikes are way too vast and many. You have to have a wider defense. Did you see what Jeff Mayweather said about this? I guess even he is wrong. In Mike Tyson's new series he alluded to the same thing when they asked him about Dos Santos and boxing. You can't take on a boxing form in MMA or you will get hit by all kind of kicks and be susceptible to take downs. No good boxer is going to leave boxing for MMA money But to say guys don't throw a decent punch in MMA is outright wrong. Boxing isn't some hidden craft. Many guys have years of training with Freddie Roach, Jeff Mayweather, and many boxing gyms. They know how to punch. What was your best accomplishment in boxing? Gustafson and Lil Nog were both amateur national boxing champions. Stephan Bonnar and Brendan Schaub both made it to the national Golden Gloves tournament. Noons and Davis were pro boxers first. Pitting Sylvia against Mercer is exactly like Coutre against Lesnar. You know the likeliness of that especially since Sylvia agreed before the bout to keep it standing and they even tried to change the MMA rules before the bout. Did you know that? And I pointed out Coutre because you made it seem like what Brock did was easy to do in MMA. No, Brock was there at the right situation with an older smaller champ who was a wrestler. You can't deny they gave Brock a title shot. James Toney fought an even more shot Coutre and if its so easy to come in MMA and beat a HOF then why did Toney get wiped out?
