Stipe Miocic is the living proof that a pro boxer with TDD would become UFC champ

[20falarVerdades]

Keep in mind, Stipe is also a collegiate wrestler.

This has been addressed. Plenty of boxers have a wrestling background, but there is a selection bias for them go into boxing, since the pay is higher

 

[ThulsaDooom]

Stipe knocked out 90% of the HW division just by being a sorta accomplished amateur boxer and part-time fire fighter. An A-level pro boxer would fare even better

 

[Mixfight]

Stipe doesnt just have good "TDD" like noob TS is claiming.

Hes a well rounded fighter. With offensive and defensive wrestling. Good chin and good hands and great instincts for fighting.

You develop that with years of training. Just like it takes 4 years to build a boxer, it takes time to build an MMA fighter.

an elite bjj would clean up

Stipe is living proof that Stipe Miocic is good enough to be UFC champion

I think you missed Werdum vs Miocic, your post is factually incorrect

He wasn't just a pure boxer that trained TDD, he's was a division 1 wrestler.

 

[FlyingKimurabar]

Stipe wrestled his entire life. OP you have a learning disability.

Ok, seriously, what's behind this new found boxing obsession on Sherdog?

l'll give you a tip...



...one of these guys has something to do with it.

LMAO so they can trade millions of dollars for that rebook money? Or the Ali Act for an abusive contract with the UFC?

I know man, but give TS a break, he must have been suffering from a serious episode of diarrhea. Can happen to anyone, that SHIT is not fun bro...

Hw boxers outside the top 15 don't make crap. Plus you've apparently forgot that the Don Kings of the boxing world have been screwing fighters for decades

He's a baseball player with tdd. Everyone needs to get their facts straight.

Did Conor wrestle his whole life too? He was a lackluster amateur irish boxer and still knocked out 90% of two divisions. Imagine what an A-level pro boxer like Canelo Alvarez would do with some TDD training

werdum tried to box. also he's no maia

also miocic was d1 wrestler

This pic will never get old. The pain in the face of McGregor, and Nate who knows the RNC is super tight and it's a matter of a split second.

Conor got the W in the rematch, but he didn't get his revenge.

Idk, there's like three or four shitty posters that cropped up talking about how great boxing is and their combos are so good, blah blah blah. Either some boxing forum started actually modding and banned these idiots or Conor is drawing the insecure over into our orbit.

Pro tip jagweeds: an elite boxer wouldn't also have elite TDD. He'd get flattened in a heartbeat, just like the other scrubs that have tried to do MMA.

maybe at heavyweight
