He’s aiming to compete as a pro in MMA after focusing on his kickboxing career.

Thought I saw him fight awhile back.

Anyhow - I like generational MMA so I'll look forward to it (hopefully).

He'll be a beast just by having Anderson training him, but you can't teach heart, chin, or the god given speed his father had.

If he's serious I hope he goes far, if he's not I hope he doesn't take unnecessary damage.

 

[Bobby Boulders]

Remember when Anderson said he didn't want his kids to fight?

Lol

Glad he said, "Fuck you, Dad!" It's only one fight, but it appears he might have something. Hope he has much success.

 

[EXOICHO]

Didn't he fight like years ago?

Did you watch the video? He's got the speed. The chin and heart are unknown at this point, but damn if he doesn't look really good in that fight. A 10 second KO is not a bad debut.

Looks like dude took a dive

 

[Buckland]

Does he look like this?

War Spider Boy!

I hope he becomes so good he ends up clowning opponents like his dad did.

Edit. Thats some nice movement tho.

 

[Dorkman]

Was that like a work? He gets right back up after falling, turns and walks away and the ref waves it off. I mean i assume it was just amateur given the headgear with a guy who may not REALLY be a fighter so just quit as soon as he got hit with something good. But this fight dosen't show us much yet. He's got a good teacher at least.

 

[NoSmilez]

I don't think he will be successful in the long run because his dad did so well. It's hard to dig deep and have immense drive when you grown up with everything given to you. Mike Tyson has this hilarious interview about his children trying boxing and he is just like they go to private school.

 

[Mat]

Hardly battle tested. Big shoes to fill.

Y'all probably thinking of his other son.

 

[Reign009]

Anyway, Silva got grown kids now. This shit makes me feel old and I don't like it.

Cerrone grew up well off and has a trust fund he hasn't touched, and despite that he was fairly successful.

(Timestamped)

Penn also grew up rich and was able to become champion.

To me it looked like he got hit with a good one, got knocked down and maybe flash KO’d. Probably didn’t know what exactly happened and was confused, felt dizzy. Could very well have been the first time the guy was dropped and rocked bad. People react differently, but usually they’re confused



Nice debut, couldn’t have gone much better.

Mini Ronnie Coleman esque

 

[Ace70 V2]

Does the headgear indicate that this is amateur kickboxing?
