He puts it down at every oppurtunity now hes calling Randy C V Toney as MMA V boxing, etc.
Why is he so hateful of boxing, a sport thats been around for 150 years and has such tradition and history.Boxing may be dead but MMA will NEVER match its peak popularity, not even close.
-
Dana white is a huge boxing fan....
And dana was STALKED by toney not the other way around... and OFC hes gonna call it "boxing vs mma" its called Promoiting for fuck sake lol.
Boxing beats mma in a boxing match. mma beats boxing in everything else, It's just common sense =) (which lacks among most getbiggers)
-
If hes a fan why is he trying so hard to put it down at every opp and kill it?
Its a combat sport so is MMA just like basketball is a ball game and so is baseball. WHy not concentrate on MMA and leave boxing to those involved in boxing,
Toneys gonna get killed btw

Maby so the Boxing promoters figure out that boxing is Dying and realises they need to do something about it. Never heard him say a lie about boxing? enlighten me?
Ask Toney.. And mayweather and everyone else thats started to call out mma for the OBVIOUS lack of incredible boxing skills No shit lol. Toney is the First one to put his "money" where his mouth is, and even though hes gonna get ruined, thats desreves some respect instead of Just talking shit aka mayweather
Who'äs that retarded boxing or promoter that recently said that coutuire should have a boxing match with toney afterwards lol. EPIC missing the fucking point and the fact that Toney has called out couture,lesnar,shane etc etc, and I doubt any mma guy is stupid enough to call out boxers in a boxing match (besides the few guys that actually have had a few boxing fights before mma) I just wish boxing dudes wasn't so damn stupid/sensitive.
and yes Tony will get Ruined, as couture would in a Boxing match =)

Boxing still attracts top athletes like Pacquiao, Mayweather, the Klitschko brothers even though it's a far cry from what it was at one point. Dana White's goal is to supplant it little by little and to attract beter athletes. Sure, there's a certain number of good athletes in UFC and free fighting in general but most of it is just street brawlers and it's still white trash. There's not been an athlete of the caliber of Ali, Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Foreman, Frazier, etc....in UFC yet, not even close.

How about .....you prove it?
Post up the entire UFC roster and mention who's got a belt in some martial art and post them who doesn't and compare...
If not, stop acting retarded...
-
Maybe I should have said " a lot of them". You're not going to say that Tank Abbott was a skilled fighter are you?
-
-
and then post the "mma guys making fun of boxers"
see, there isn't any.
Mma guys could make a hundred videos about how much of a bitch they would made Every single boxer look in a Mma fight.. But they dont bother.. a 170 pound GSP would wrestle the Shit out of the klitcho brothers, yet I dont see him making videos lol.
the same thing cant be said about boxers though. NO SHIT mayweather would beat them in a boxing match lol, no one has claimned otherwise Yet they feel the need to prove themself.
Epic low self esteem right there haha.

Will you guys give it a rest already, boxing's a great sport but to the majority of the population it's just boring. People wanna see violence and fights, it's been that way since roman days. Boxing had a huge fan base in the past because it had the violence overflow. Now it's divided between those who wanna see a fight and those who was see a contest. UFC will fade but only to something more agressive.
-
If another Tyson comes along then watch boxing go huge again and UFC dwindle and then watch the UFC guys asking HIM to come and fight!

I enjoy boxing from time to time, but when you're used to watching good mma fights its very very boring if you're not focusing on watchign just the techniques with no action lol.

"Mma" gloves, no hugging and 6 rounds. then shit would have to go down

6 rounds with mma gloves would probably be beneficial for your health also compared to boxing gloved and 12 ass rounds. Epic punchdrunk

Swede, did you ever trained a full 12 rounds boxing with just the minute rest in between? Everyone who did it will tell you it's a fucking ordeal, one of the best and worse workouts ever. UFC is not that impressive in that regard. And I hope you know I'm right when I say that not top athlete ranking with guys like Ali, Hagler, Leoanard has yet graced a UFC ring.

half swede and half norwegian, and I had blond hair and blue eyes when I was a toddler at least lol

Im not saying its easy. But its Nothing compared to wrestling cardio. (ive been told that be alot of guys thats done both) Its also alot eaiser to rest in boxing..
No? we have 5-6 time world champs in different "arts" , Olympic wrestlers etc etc.. Just because ali is more famous doesnt make him "better" there are some grappling GODS in mma, just as good if not better then Ali if you could "compare" the two but you cant.. Its just because grappling competitions isn't even close to as popular as boxing that You havent heard about them =)

I haven't wrestled so I couldn't tell but boxing just washes you up. See, the problem is that there might "grappling Gods" (and i do recpect a few guys Like Fedor of course) but those sports don't tend to attract top athletes. They go where the money is and where there's a real professional structure. Olympic wrestlers? Ok, except Olympic wrestling is not getting better, it's getting worse (there's no champions in wrestling along the lines of Karelin or going back further Takhti), it's just an amateur sport nowadays. A soon as they spot potential in a guy, right now, you can be sure he's going to head towards soccer, basketball, NFL, whatever is more likely to pay off. Popular=money=attracts the best athletes (or the guys with the best potential). Once UFC will have killed bowing, it will attract more and more top athletes. To me that's unfortunate but it might happen.

It's pretty much a myth, Brit's Dutch German and Swedes are all about the same in terms of hair color, The only real difference is they got the nordic look and got better facial features, smaller better shaped noses and higher cheek bones. You won't see anyone around there that can pass for arab unlike say france or spain.

lol, grappling gods and you mention fedor? there are a shitload of grappling "gods" that Only competes in just that, Grappling, Sub wrestling, or BJJ and not in mma.. And they are Amazingly talented. with 15-20 + years of training 5-6 hours each day...
Its like saying coleman its an amazing bodybuilder because they big money somewhere else. And it also has to do with how you define athlete. Is a top nfl player a better athlete then a BJJ blackbelt? maby, doesn't change the fact that he would get KILLED on the ground though, so let him be a "better athlete then" ?
why are you so obsessed with tbe wotd athlete? lol.
If you enjoy grappling this fight is AMAZING
for someone that dpoesnt like it/understand it, its just "2 guys hugging"
In boxing you dont have to Know alot about the sport to see that someones really really good..

Because the thing I'm mainly interested in is the athletic performance whatever the sport is. I don't care if this guy can kill that guy or whatever. I watch sport more than I do watch Bbing (which I think is not a sport though fun). That's why I've never watched an entire Bb show but I'll watch weightlifting and tracks at the Olympic.

then ali is no more of an athlete then multiple grappling champs =) just different taste =)
and mma is about being the best Fighter, not the best Athlete or whatever so I dont understand your point,
Gsp is an Amazing athlete though. What hes doing to top level wrestlers is like if kimbo beat the one of the klitcho bro's tomorrow lol.
I would say any good ufc fighter is a shitload more of an athlete then any boxer, due to the massive advantage in cardio etc etc, its all about how you define the word =)

Sure of that, bro? The young Ali had incredible skills for a guy his height and weight. Also enough guts and resistance to go through a fight like his third against frazier which is a fight known as being incredibly demanding and brutal. I'm just saying that if the best talents were drawn to the UFC (which they will if they continue this way), the reigning champs would be shit compared to them. I know you love Lesnar but damn, the guy was in the WWE (or whatever entertainmeent bullshit American wrestling thing it is).

yeah hes only that and yes no athletes there either, Im done, its impossible to have a serious discussion at getbig, dont know why I try,
when you have Any clue about mma or brock lesnar lets try again. I got the feeling you actually had a Clue, but no
-
The original UFC tournament was to find the dominant "fighting" art,you had karate,BJJ,judo.taekwondo,boxing etc and boxing is the one fighting art that has mainly been the least dominant.Thats why boxers try to make fun of the UFC,they know they would lose in a real fight.

Its so surprising that MMA fans claim Fedor can kill prime Mike tyson .Considering the fact that anyone of Tysons skills and abilities would turn any MMA fighter into a vegetable .I dont think any fighter of MMA beats 85-88 version of MT. FACT 8)

See the documentary "Tyson" that Mike narrates. Prime Mike is the baddest motha to ever walk this planet.
-
mike tyson was fun to watch. kimbo, before he got in the ufc, was fun to watch (on youtube at least).
fighters need to have a killer instinct. in that "ultimate grappling" video swede posted above the one guy has a perfect chance to snap the other guysd ankle, but he lets go of it. these guys dont want to actually hurt eachother. if your fighting, you need to break that fuckers skull and let his brains seep onto the floor. otherwise your just fucking around.

lol, you seriously have NO CLUE do you? any "normal" persons arm/angle/leg would have snapped 10 times over in that vid. They endured an INSANE ammount of pain, and they tried to break each others limbs as hard as they could. And moved on when realising they couldn't.
god damnit your stupidity is shocking sometimes..

Boxing - an Olympic Sport.
MMA - not an Olympic Sport.
Boxing - Million dollar purses.
MMA - Not there yet.
This arguement of boxing vs. MMA needs to wait another 20 years or so before it's really worth arguing about. Boxing has supposedly been dead for a 100 years now yet Manny and Floyd are still making record paydays. Once MMA fighters starting making 50 mill for a fight than this arguement will be relevant.
I like both sports.

Why argue ??? they're two differents sports
-
I like both sports and I actually train in both. I can tell you without any doubt whatsoever that grappling takes a much greater toll on your cardio and muscular systems than boxing. I have seen people puke from 2 minutes of hard grappling more times than I can count. Its a totally different type of conditioning that exhausts your entire body. To say that UFC doesn't have many great athletes and that its mostly just white trash amateurs is beyond absurd. There was a great show on a while back that showed Couture's conditioning levels compared to a normal person and the difference was absurd. I can't stand Lesnar but the man is one of the most formidable athletes I have ever seen. Tyson in his prime would have a very small window of opportunity to knock out an MMA fighter before he was taken to the ground. After that, he would be entirely at the mercy of the grappler. Even the best boxers in the world have been frustrated time and again by another boxer far below their own level that stayed out of range and then immediately clinched when the range was broken. MMA doesn't have a ref to separate you from the clinch and let you have another chance at punching. You get elbowed, kneed, and taken down once you are clinched. What is a boxer going to do against someone like Kerr that could shoot from 10 feet out and get the take down so fast that even another world class wrestler couldn't sprawl in time? This argument is silly.

BTW, Dana White doesn't want to kill boxing. He wants to make money and that is ALL he cares about.

Totally different kind of endurance , I see it everyday we have MMA guys (wrestling ,jujitsu ....)coming to our gym to learn some boxing and many of them gas after sparring two rounds

STFU already about this boxing vs. MMA argument. It's boxing that's always comparing themselves to MMA. You're a perfect example. Most MMA guys don't even think about boxing as a sport except when it comes to personalities like PacMan and Tyson. Boxing is just one of the disciplines that they have to train in to succeed. It's boxer that are trying to get into MMA.
Again, take two boxing clones. Two identical Mike Tysons. Then wave a magic wand and Mike Tyson #2 now has the added skills of Muy Thai, a Black Belt in Jiu-Jitsu and D1 wrestling. Toss them both in the street shirtless and have them go at it. Who wins?
-
Yeah, boxers move to mma when they can't hang as boxers. Think about it.

Yeah, there is proof. Proof that guys that suck at boxing will suck if they switch to MMA. Next they should suck at golf, and then tennis.

No top boxer has yet been seen in the UFC or MMA in general. True that considering the rules, I don't thing boxers could do very well once taken down but still doesn't change the fact that the best talents still end up in boxing. Also, and even if boxers are not clean, at least you don't see guys who are outrageously roided and drugged up like in UFC. None of these guys could take a simple piss test. You would have given a prime time Tyson about 18 months training in grappling or whatever else and if would have mopped the floor back and forth with Lesnar and whoever else.
-
Boxing hasn't been relevant since the early 90's, with all the scandals, fixes, lack of good or interesting fighters it has been paved over by MMA..
and what's with all these piece of shit calling MMA a skinhead sport ?!! because the guys aren't 8:1 black like the nba it's automatically a bunch of white skinheads?! half these comments were by what looked like jews.
-
The talent level in mma is very low. It has potential but some of the guys at the top level are laughable.
Boxing and striking in general is more interesting to watch than two guys rolling around on the floor.
Recent example.
World title fight, with one guy Carwin who gasses after throwing about fifty punches, comes forward in straight lines, zero headmovement, zero footwork, no Muay thai, slow as mollases, just boxing that a two week novice would know. Against Lesnar, a guy that gets hit once with an overextended uppercut and turns round and spends the rest of the round curled up on the floor. He has zero boxing or Muay thai. So much for well rounded. Two wrestlers, only one of them throws a one two.

You're a focking tool. D-1 national champions and Olympic medalists don't have talent and aren't as good athletically as boxers? It would be nice if you didn't talk if you don't know your ass from a hole in the ground.
Here is Mike Tyson talking about how a leg kick paralyzed his leg and left him leaning against a wall cuz he couldn't walk after it. Watch the interview. Tyson has nothing bad to say about MMA and is complimentary to Couture.

Watch your fucking mouth. Forest griffin, Tim Sylvia, Rich Franklin, Chuck Liddell, Rampage et cetera the list goes on, the talent pool is fucking tiny. Who said anything against Muay Thai? Couture has never thrown a leg kick in his life, another one dimensional wrestler.

Or what bitch boy? Couture is a fantastic athlete, whether he uses kicks a lot or not. Its obvious you don't know what you're talking about so shut your mouth unless you want to talk about something you know, like sucking dick. Muay Thai is just one of the arts MMA guys train. You may as well say MMA sucks, but who said anything about BJJ? Like I said, you're a focking tool.

Go and die girl. MMA has a tiny talent pool at this stage in it's history, hence the reason why guys like Rogers, Carwin, Griffin, Liddell can rise to the top of the sport without being elite at even one discipline and starting in their thirties. There are elite athletes in mma, guys like GSP and Fedor, but they are few and far between. Training something has nothing to do with whether or not you are good at it or not. The technique that 99% of mma fighters have standing is laughable, go and watch the Griffin v Silva fight to see what a guy who went 1-1 in boxing does to guys on that level. I didn't say boxing was better than anything, i said the talent pool is far larger, it's not the sport it's the current infrastructure.
You have a middle aged engineer who can't even throw a combination and was outstruck by Neil Wain, fighting for world titles against a collegiate wrestler who reacts to getting punched by curling up in to the fetal position for the majority of the round lol.
I would mutiliate degenerate shit like you in real life so keep crying. "You said something bad about my sport, so i'll call you a fag". Fucking WWF fanboys.

Did you really just type that? You're even dumber than I thought. Here all this time have been training for nothing. Little did I know that training something doesn't have anything to do with whether you're good at it. I hope all the athletes don't find this out. What would they do with all their free time if they found out training has nothing to do with getting better at something. What a focking moron.
Tell me all about what you would do in real life pussy boy. Unlike you, I actually train in boxing and MMA.
Then again, I forgot that training doesn't make you good at something, so your couch potato ass is probably better at fighting than I am, even though you don't train and I have been doing it all my life. And what the fock does WWF have to do with anything? I don't watch it, golf, water polo, tiddlywinks, or any of the other things that have nothing to do with fighting. "jaime"? If that isn't a fag's name, nothing is. BTW, Carwin won his first 12 fights in the first round and is a two-time NCAA Division II Wrestling National Runner-Up Heavyweight in 1996–97 and the NCAA II Wrestling Heavyweight National Champion in 1999. He was also a two-time All-American in football for Western State. You're right, definitely not an athlete.

I get the impression that Dana White plays the passive aggressive devil when it comes to Randy Couture. I don't believe Dana likes Randy very much. Remember that Randy wanted out of his contract not to long ago and not long after that Dana fed Randy Brock Lesner. There was also talk about a Couture/Fedor fight a couple years back that Randy was trying to make happen without Dana. Something tells me that Mr. White wouldn't mind seeing Couture get knocked out within the first minute of the fight this weekend.
