His style is fucking horrible to watch(for kickboxing) and turns potentially good fights to shitProbably a better fighter, but Marcus is a terrible matchup for him.

lol! artem was the one who kept clinching and closing the distance when they fought under kb rules. Artem has a more visually pleasing and fan friendly style but it doesn't make him a better fighter. He had the change against marcus twice under kb rules that restricted simon's biggest weapons and favored himself and yet levin still lost to everyone but the iska judges, glory and apparently you.Because of the clinch Marcus won their MT fight. They have never had a proper KB match because Marcus refuses to fight at proper KB distance. Artem is the better fighter overall. All Marcus does better is the clinch and teep. Artem's hands are far better and that is the main reason Marcus only closed the distance in their KB fight. TBH Marcus was smart to fight Artem the way he did. Artem would have KO'ed him with the hands just like Schilling and Bian did.
Lol. Quit trolling me. I believe my eyes. The third fight I won't even talk about it was such an abomination. Levin won the second fight but the ref took that win away from him with that wack point deduction.lol! artem was the one who kept clinching and closing the distance when they fought under kb rules.

The iska and glory have proven to be about as incompetent as possible but know you are in good company when it comes to being delusional and unable to admit what actually took place
MarcusWho?
How blind can you be? Levin was the one who refused to fight in the pocket! Artem was the one stalling and the one clinching anytime simon tried to strike. He is the one who refused to engage not marcus.Lol. Quit trolling me. I believe my eyes. The third fight I won't even talk about it was such an abomination. Levin won the second fight but the ref took that win away from him with that wack point deduction.
If you're intelligent enough (you obviously are not), you'd see clearly that Marcus was the fighter closing the distance and not attempting any combos. He did this for the obvious reason he lacks hands and Levin would clobber him at distance. The ref made the wrong call. He should of deducted a point from Simon for stalling.
I'm not going to explain why Levin would sometimes clinch when Marcus closed the distance. Your puny mind isn't savvy enough to understand Simon's real GP for that fight was to get a mistake out of Levin so you'll never process the fact Simon knows he can't beat Levin straight up in a KB match therefore he had to resort to his trickery and gamesmanship.
Nope. If you watch their first KB fight it was Marcus who closed the distance but then would stand one inch from Levin... sometimes he would clinch first and other times Levin would... but it was Simon closing the distance. Levin was literally running backward trying to create distance just so he could punch Marcus LOL. What do you expect Levin to do when he faces a fighter in a KB match who won't trade but has no problem closing the distance where 90% of Levin's arsenal is now nullified? I am asking you seriously! What was he expected to do? There are virtually zero points in Glory for clinch fighting and no elbows? So I ask you? In a Glory KB fight when your opponent won't stand at range how are you going to fight him in a KB match? The answer is you can't. It's that simple. The ref that couldn't see that Simon was stalling is pathetic. I have never seen a KB match where one guy is terrified of trading at range. Simon is not a KB he is a MT fighter. He doesn't have good combos or hands. He got KO'ed twice recently and if you think that didn't factor into his fighting Levin safe you are just not honest with yourself.How blind can you be? Levin was the one who refused to fight in the pocket! Artem was the one stalling and the one clinching anytime simon tried to strike. He is the one who refused to engage not marcus.
It amazes me people can't see that Simon ruined that fight. He refuses to KB at range and only wants to clinch. All you need to do is watch their first MT fight and it's clear Marcus wants nothing to do with Levin's hands and combos. He only wants to clinch.Marcus
well according to you levin can't fight on the inside so all simon would need to do to beat levin under english boxing rules is close the distanceNope.

When I see one fighter throwing good combos and running backward trying to create distance so he can KO his opponent I don't judge that he wants to clinch. He wants to fight a KB match against a guy with a weak chin in Simon. What were Simon's punch stats for this match? Did the guy even throw one punch at range? Simon closed the distance because he didn't want to get KO'ed. It's really that simple. How people can't see this is jaw dropping.
The last thing I want to ask you is who would win in a boxing match? I want to see if you're even rational at this point.
I understand what you are saying but the fact remains I have NEVER seen a KB match where a fighter is not willing to stand at NORMAL KB range and throw combos. According to what I saw Levin wanted to trade at range. Simon had ZERO desire to fight a normal KB match. It's not hard to understand that. Simon has a weak chin. Simon is also a MT fighter whose style is clinch heavy. The truth is the guy doesn't belong anywhere near a KB ring.well according to you levin can't fight on the inside so all simon would need to do to beat levin under english boxing rules is close the distance
Probably a better fighter, but Marcus is a terrible matchup for him.
the glory referees are a terrible match up for him, glory is doing a pathetic job the refs are the worst I have ever seen.
