seriously bro, you don't think he belongs in the top 10?

 

he could be top 15 definitely, but as far as achievement, he definitely doesn't belong there

 

he's not even a title contender yet, hasn't even had his title shot yet, and he's above Rashad, and Faber? that doesn't make sense bro.

 

i bet matt hughes could take him.

well you've got a point there bro (no title shot, not even a title to begin with)

 

although i see that the future is bright for the Dragon though ^_^

 

Matt Hughes in his prime could probably or GSP version 3.0 will annihilate him

Pare mukhang natawa ka sapagtype ah... PAKTAY talaga!

That would be the Sherdog's Top 10 MMA fighters list, hehehehe! Lyoto has a huge following in Sherdog so I wont be surprised if that is based on a Sherdog list of top 10 MMA fighters (considering that Fedor is numero uno in that list.)

 

By the way, Rashad is no. 5 in the that list. But Matt Hughes could take down The Dragon? You gotta be kidding man, hehehehe! Machida will toy the Matt Hughes in his prime like a Barney Rubble action figure, hehehehe!

nice thread bro dragonei.

 

actually, i don't see any reason why there should still be boxing sing MMA encapsulates boxing. meaning, boxing is part of the mixed martial arts and when mma was starting, there were boxers complete with their gloves, shorts and shoes squaring off against other martial artists.

 

i mean, those boxers should join mma if they reall think their craft is better. buti pa si eric esch, he's man enough to paticipate in mma. has anyone seen yung fight nya against Cabbage? panalo. one lost tooth, the other broke his elbow.

 

anyways, i don't see any reason to watch boxing anymore. mma is here.

 

All the more reason why the likes of Mike Tyson should look to joining an MMA stable as a way to put the spark back into their careers.

 

It shouldn't be too late....

 

Already, former WWE contender Bobby Lashley is joining Lesnar in that field

the big names in boxing are gone... dont even know who the heavyweight champs are at the moment... gone are the days of tyson, holyfield

 

or the likes of duran, leonard, hearns ang hagler

 

 

The Heavyweight Champs are all non-American. The Klitchko bros are the terror of the division. Vladimir is way better than his bro, btw.

 

On to the topic. Boxing is fading. MMA is still on the way up. What killed boxing is the sell-outs, the unfit boxers...mga pustahan na malalaki. That to name a few. Add to the fact na obviously, mas diverse ang MMA, although isang outfit na lang talaga ang matatag ngayon, which is UFC.

I don't really see boxers doing good in MMA. They will just be taken down time and again. Unless they have a wrestling background.

 

I see Lashley doing good in MMA. He, like Lesnar (same initials btw) are both freaks of nature. Both big and agile, plus the wrestling background.

The reason why Lyoto is in the top 10 is his record. It speaks for itself. BUT, not to take away from his talents, he has to fight the big names now. Yeah, his last fight was pretty sweet, KO'ing a KO artist, but he should be fighting a hight level of fighters. His title shot? yeah, he deserves it. What annoys me with his style is parang takot, suntok, then takbo. Well, yun nga, kanya kanyang style. He's just to slippery for anyone who he has fought, and sabi nga ni Joe Rogan, it's hard to prepare for someone like Machida, kase mahirap makahanap ng sparring partner with his skills sets.

 

With the issue on Matt Hughes taking down Lyoto, well, i don't think he can. He's too slippery. Would love to see him fight GSP though. IN the right weight class lang sana, hehehe.

bruce actually manages michael's career, and he has always been his brother's business manager, even before bruce got into MMA.

 

there was one early UFC if I recall correctly where Michael announced the fights, I can't recall which one it is though.

 

I love bruce for his turn too, sometimes he gets so pumped up about the upcoming fight, you can hear the intensity in his voice, and it almost seems like he's about to go fight too.

 

 

I agree with you bro.

 

To me, among the brothers, Bruce really do care about the sport, while Mike is , you know doing it just for the dough.

They said Arlovski might transition into boxing! KJ Noons is a MMA/ Pro boxer, I read that he will concentrate more in boxing!

 

By the way Vince Mcmahon (WWE owner) already owns 20% of the UFC! Obviously WWE is not dying! We ju got older and realized it was fake! Hehehe... :thumbsupsmiley:

Will MMA k*ll Pro boxing! Hell No! But one day MMA will reach or be at the same level of Pro Boxing! In terms of PPV sales, MMA/UFC is selling more than Boxing! But in terms of fighters payout boxing has the upper hand! :thumbsdownsmiley:

 

Dang, is that right? Vinnie Mac owning part of the UFC? Well it's a win win situation, business wise. Just don't create UFC storylines and incorporate them into the WWE :P

i don't see that happening chief, no one watches MMA matches for a storyline... or is it just my opinion? ^_^

although im a fan of both soprts, i have to admit that im a boxing fan first, then mma second. what i like about boxing is the ability of the fighters to rise up to the challenge and have a chance to win despite several KOs until the final bell sounds. This is exactly why i dont like mma that much, it ends fairly too quickly and there are too many flukes andd one shot wonders. but i have to agree that its very entertaining and fast paced. im glad that more and more fighters are going for ko's rather than submissions.

 

btw, im simply stating my opinion and i believe this is still on topic.

I prefer boxing. I'd rather see two fighters stand up and fight like real men, than two guys locked up in a "missionary" position on the ground as if they were re-enacting a dry-humping scene from a gay porn flick.

 

Eehehehehhe though there is nothing gay with MMA I don't think that it will k*ll boxing. Boxing is still one of the most beloved sports even though it has this brutal image.
