MMA is for white folk who can't box? (Old Mayweather clip)

YOU the one with the well-documented daddy issues "breh": A Poster Accused My Father Of Playing With My Bootyhole as a Teenager Issues that are clearly so deep-seated you feel the need to project them and your resulting deviancy onto everyone you encounter on this site in response. Seek professional help and find an outlet for all your pent up, closeted degenerate frustrations. Maybe try an MMA gym, you seem to be the type that'd love to grapple and wrestle with other sweaty men...

MMA fighters always have a long resume of martial arts training. But are never dominant in any specific disclipline.
Average fighter resume goes like this,
Kickboxing - But can't compete against top talent
Boxing - but can't beat even an amatuer boxer in a sanctioned match.
Grappling - but would never qualify for oylmpic wrestling

but when allowed to employ all three, they can beat ofter fighters who themselves havn't mastered all three.

Pereira was double champ in kickboxing before he switched to MMA. But aside from that you're correct. These guys are Jack of all trades masters of none.

I mean, there are more than a few that were NCAA champs in their respective fight style and also competitive at an Olympic level.

Henry Cejedo won Gold in freestyle in the Olympics. Yoel Romero won silver. Mark Coleman was an NCAA champ. Randy Coutoire was a 4x national champ in greco-roman. Daniel Cormier was arguably the 2nd-best wrestler in the nation but just happened to be competing at the same time as Cael Sanderson. Johny Hendricks was 2x NCAA champion. Khabib was a 2x world champ in sambo and also a world champ in BJJ. Mark Hunt was a world kickboxing champ. Alastair Overeem was a world champion in kickboxing at the same time he held his MMA title.


But the general point is still true. There's been a ton of wrestling champs and kickboxing champs who came into MMA and didn't do shyt. If you're not well-rounded, then you'll be exposed by someone who is.

Yea but when has sloppy fighting like that ever been celebrated….they saying this one of the best KOs of all time

Leon Edward’s KO’d Usman beautifully off the set up off a feint…this shyt here was just sloppy as a bar fight.

That’s not true though. A lot are ncaa wrestling champs.

The problem with boxing is they get coddled too much. So they look better. A guy in boxing can be 20-0 and have fought nothing but bums. You can’t go 5-0 in mma and not fight a top guy.

That's why people love Max . What other fighter is pointing to the center of the ring and slugging it out like that. Especially in a fight he had pretty much already won had it went to a decision
