Boxing 1 MMA 0

[Trainer Monkey]

Well with all this talk that boxing is dead, we have some ammo against that notion. Arlovski coming over to boxing is a good sign for boxing, Money is the #1 reason this is happening. MMA fighters get paid like crap so I could see more MMA fighters doing this. I cant see why a boxer would make the switch, it would be suicide.

Alot of Boxers jump to MMA,its called "Help! my boxing career is stalled"

More like dead and buried, fighters like Botha, Butterbean, Phillips, Mercer and Morrison.

Before them you had Leon Spinks who would fight anyone and anything for any amount

They were all going nowhere in boxing so thought, "fuck it I need soe quick cash, ill join the circus"

If Arlovski gets ko'd by Fedor expect him to have trouble getting a boxing licence, no commision would want a brain damaged ex mma fighter holding their licence, let alone going straight in with such a massive world champion.

If someone like this is deadly serious about a boxing career, at least test the water by starting out as an amature, whithout any amature bouts they can start as a complete novice and have a few bouts that mean nothing, then if they feel they are cut out for it, build themselves up in the pro ranks.

Any mma fighter will struggle when put in with a mediocre boxer, as has happened to mighty mo, Belfort fought another ex mma fighter who was making his debut in his own boxing debut.

Arlovski needs to calm down and stop believing his own hype, if he doesnt he will get embarrassed much the same as old fat boxing hasbeens have jumping in to mma whithout success.
