Video: Dillon Danis training boxing

[ColombianFist]

with that level of boxing he must use his bjj. right now he sucks at boxing.

 

[Mixfight]

Well what do people expect? He's been training box for less than a year. I dont think Werdum looked any better in his first year. Some grapplers pick up striking well and others have a very difficult time with the transition.

Each cost like $50

Edit: yep

I thought these were Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles hats for the longest time.

Honda at least has a legit KO win in MMA with her hands.

If Dillon Danis gets a KO in MMA with his hands I will eat my hat.

Is it a $50 TMT hat?

 

[wisdom blows]

Jacare didnt look that good when he first started out too

He also didn't fight in a big league at such a young age.

 

[michi972]

And I thought my striking sucks so much

 

[Fungoose]

Sheesh.

Homie has Rousey-like striking.

He makes Ronda look like a seasoned boxer.

If Dillon Danis gets a KO in MMA with his hands I will eat my hat.

Will it be a TMT hat?

 

[Fungoose]

looks like cm punk with his armpunches

Heh, I was waiting to see this guy get drubbed. Instead we see him get grapplefucked. At least we know that won't happen with D'anis.

 

[UhHuhSure]

Leads with an uppercut... I like it! Keep up the good work.

 

[cheesus]

God he looks awful, how is this guy soon to be fighting MMA ? I legitimately see soccer mums in the fitness classes at my boxing club that have better technique and look more threatening.

 

[TheHNICuLuv2Hate]

Can anyone explain how Dildo Anus will take over Bellator after seeing this?

 

[Significance Deficit]

Not sure what people in here are talking about, it's much easier for a grappler to learn striking than vice versa. That's been proven. MMA is a sport of wrestlers and BJJ guys who picked up striking as they went. It takes years to develop serviceable submission defense and to be able to stuff a shot.

As far as this clip goes, it's so bad that I find it hard to believe it's real. Danis has been working with SBG guys long enough that he shouldn't look anywhere near that bad. That honestly looks like it's his first time hitting mitts.

 

[K4BOSH]

Looks like Justin Beiber on the pads...good thing he's amazing on the ground. Its gonna be interesting to see his progression.

That hat is worth $60 though. #TMT

Keep in mind boxers may just not want to come to MMA because they are already paid well. Also how many places can wrestlers go to make money with their skill sets?

Just a guess, I don't actually "train UFC brah".

That's a fair point. I would say it applies more to kickboxers though. Dudes like Tyrone Spong and even Cosmo Alexandre have fucked around with MMA and done well, but then backed off because the money isn't good enough. It's much more difficult for boxers to make that same transition.

I'm just saying that generally speaking, MMA really is a sport of grapplers who learned to strike.
