Cain Velasquez responds to Tyson Fury's challenge to fight

Trollsmasher

Perfect response imo. These boxers sound ridiculous trying trying to call out MMA fighters. I thought we were done with this after Couture vs. Toney. Like any boxer has a chance against an MMA fighter with a collegiate wrestling background. Get real

Same with an MMA fighter trying to call out a top boxer

No chance

spartacus_

imo, boxers have more chance at mma than the opposite. but that doesn't mean much.

i also think people are calling champs so much because they realized you just need some hype to get a title shot. sonnen effect.

Tiger_Champion

that's prob the best response you could give. Forgetting everything else Fury is a nobody famous for punching himself in the head. Cains all class...

Juzie

He should of just said "Who?" and left it as that. Guy is just trying to get his name out there but as soon as he fights someone descent (MMA or boxing) he's getting murdered.

Cept some top mma guys have pure stand up experience at the world level

Overeem could most likly make it a contest with any top boxer

Cerrone is former world champ kickboxer...could he touch some boxer of his weight?

Manhoef scares killers shitless...he's willing to bang with guys twice his size

Daley...see Cerrone

and a few other....im not saying they would all win...but what im sayin they would make it hell of a lot closer to winning in boxing then any boxer could win in mma

Sure it's possible, but I'm pretty sure Overeem would get murdered. He is too heavy, would be sad to see him vs. any of the Klitschko's in boxing. Or any other top 10 SHW for that part.

No, not even close

None of the people you mentioned would do well against a top boxer at any weight

Boxers train boxing, all the time

MMA's train MMA, all the time

Put any boxer in a MMA fight with a top guy, they lose

Put any MMA in a boxing match with a top guy, they lose

There is no argument

Have to agree, your talking about the elite of there sports here. Overeem wouldn't last with any of the top heavyweights, Both the Brothers, Haye ect would destroy him most likely inside two rounds.

ultimatefightingchamp

JDS would be able to hang

HEAVYD2117

How about a boxer vs an MMA fighter with kickboxing/ thai rules. No take downs allowed but kicks, knees and elbows all legal?

I'm not saying they would go in a compete with the best boxers...im saying mma elite strikers who have pure stand up experence have a better chance to hang in boxing then a too boxer hangin it in mma

No top boxer could make it to the ufc and win...nor in the smaller promos like bellator,titan ect

I think a few too guys like the guys I listed could get a few wins here and there on the small Promos of boxing like the NABO...there is no way any mma guy is getting a legit world title...but they could hang with some journey men maybe

Didnt even know that 'sport' existed just watched it on youtube was in hillbilly heaven

Tyson Fury sounds like a cheap pr0n movie actor name.

JDS would beat Haye, and with enough training even klitschko imo

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahahaha not a chance in hell he would beat Haye, not even close.

spartacus_

JDS wouldn't have a chance as well (even before Cain II i would say that) because mma boxing is very different to real boxing.

Ah, I see what you're saying

Yeah, it's possible

JDS_over_REEM

Cain handled that with class. haha.

GSP_over_Silva

MMA boxing is different from pure boxing.

najma

Overeem can beat any boxer out there. His a top world kickboxer for crying out loud.
Moussasi can beat any boxer out there too. He beat the K-1 World Champion for crying out loud with only one training camp totally focused on striking.

Me_Against_The_World

I can knockout Classicboxer and I only train UFC.

I dont think you can really say this because for one the Klitchsko brothers are HW at the worst ever time in the history of the weight class and secondly MMA fighters are faster more athletic and much more dynamic strikers than boxers

If only Hari could stay out of jail for more than 3 months at a time we might find out.

Take on Cain? he needs to finish with the plumbers first.

I'd love Sonnen to unleash his absurd comedy smack talk fury on Fury. That'd be too funny.

Sonnen via KO. He's the more well rounded striker

Why do you say "EVEN" Sonnen?
Dude, Sonnen manhandled the best P4P MMA fighter in the world on the ground with his grappling.
Now, you want to give him a guy with zero ground game, right?

If somebody is to tool that boxer like a rag doll, it IS a guy like Sonnen.
