Boxing and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) are undoubtedly two very different combat sports and fighting systems. To completely adopt a traditional boxing stance, or rely only on boxing as a fighter in the sport of MMA, would definitely not be the best approach. It would make you susceptible to...
What should mixed martial arts (MMA) fighters be paid?

If you're not? Go...

Mayweather-McGregor was just the start
Basically, it talks about more crossover BOXING matches with the bigger names in MMA. Stipe is already calling out Anthony Joshua on twitter. McGregor made so much money that all the big names in MMA are going to go over to boxing to get beaten for big...

Floyd Mayweather beat Conor McGregor’s ass; McGregor put on a respectable effort against an elite boxer, winning a moral victory. McGregor looked as sharp as he could have, and showcased improved skills; Mayweather was a faded husk of his former self. The fight was...
I'm surprised this hasn't came up.. I've been following Aldos trip to Garcia's and it's been a treat..I highly recommend you get on YouTube and look them up..

With the only fighter ever to simultaneously hold two UFC weight-class titles expected to bank upwards of $100 million for his Aug. 26 superfight against undefeated boxing star Floyd...

Nice highlight reel of who's been getting KTFOed so far in 2017. I particularly liked the Benavidez vs. Medina KO (around the 9:30 mark). "Porky" got wrecked.
Enjoy

As the farce/marketing stunt of this fight really happening continues on with gusto I became curious what my fellow MMA enthusiast brothers and sisters thought of this boxing match. To be perfectly honestly, I would much prefer a PRIDE+Elbows ruleset and watching Conor get his head knocked off...
The lead up to this fight is great.......don't remember who brought this up but it's one hell of a fight and pre fight/walk out/introduction, etc, etc

I posted a thread yesterday about Gerald McClellan vs. Nigel Benn, so just for context, Gerald beat Julian Jackson and took his WBC middleweight title.
I had forgot about this until I saw some videos on YouTube today. It's a sad story, but fans of boxing should read this if you don't already know about this fight.
Snipped from wiki:
Nigel Benn vs. Gerald McClellan was a professional boxing match contested on 25 February 1995 for the WBC...

May 18, 2002, I'm sitting at home, randomly turned on HBO Boxing and watched what has been billed as the Fight of the Century -- "Irish" Micky Ward vs Arturo "Thunder" Gatti. ... That is, until Cub-Choi. As I was watching that 3-round thriller at UFC 206, I couldn't help but think of Gatti-Ward...

He says he tried years ago but "they" wouldn't let him. He thinks Conor McGregor is pulling a publicity stunt, but if it works then he's doing it. He says he doesn't like MMA and wants out.
He also says Conor McGregor "holds the record for getting hit more...
Just uploaded a breakdown & recap of this weekend's boxing action between Manny Pacquiao and the (now) former WBO Welterweight Champion Jessie Vargas.

2016 hasn’t been a kind year to UFC champions. After two successful defenses of his welterweight crown, Robbie Lawler was beginning to grow on us as the closest thing to stability outside of "Mighty Mouse" and a certain Joanna "Champion."...
Tevin Farmer might not be Floyd Mayweather, and he might not be doing this to the Pacquiao's or the JMM's in the world, but you've gotta admit -- slick defense is slick defense!!!
Earlier today Lance Pugmire of the LA Times broke that Pacman is fighting Jessie Vargas next. There was a lot of speculation that his November 5th opponent was going to be one of those two. After all of the momentum Crawford gained in his last outing against Viktor Postol, it seemed like it...
