are you serious roy jones? he was on top of the sport for fifteen years before he FINALY got hit hard enough to drop him...please don't compare that skilled bar fighter liddell to and atg likr RJJ...if its about finding the weakness why didn't liddell take down rampage instead standing up there trying to throw hands.. ...any how boxing is the ultimate man vs man test of might ufc is a deseperate plea to try to match that..and i guarantee cale sanderson whoops all of them...and if they are so tough and want to make real money and get real attention that boxers get why not box? because they can't they're all flawed so they say well i bet you can't beat me wrestling...
That is probably the most childish argument I have read in years. Why don't boxers play golf and make real money. Only the top 10 percent of boxers make alot of money, and even then it's a pretty short career. Golfers make money and they don't even have to sweat. Oh I know it because they get mad because they can't hit a ball as good so they say I bet I can punch you in the face more than you punch me..............
boxers don't play golf....and the point was or is...instead MMA fighters trying to gain everything that boxing has (larger fans, more promotion, more money per fighter,) by down playing the real skill that it takes to box...its quite simple just box..if you want to be seen as a good or great fighter and want all the luxuries that come with being a world class fighter then why not box?

and boxers as a whole aren't complaining about wanting tiger woods' masters jacket. and they aren't on espn saying "don't watch them watch us"...that was the point when i said if they want what boxers get why not box....

yeah i could easily miss the point and say well why don't golfers just design great software and become bill gates, but that wouldn't make sense because golfers aren't complaining about no one watching their sport and saying "oh watch us because we're smarter than bill gates plus we hit a ball"

i hope this was much clear for you....
