Boxing in MMA cage

[MemphisMafia]

Sylvia vs. Mercer in a MMA cage instead of ring:
Adrenaline MMA III: Sylvia vs. Mercer boxing match to be held in MMA cage | MMAjunkie.com

This is different!

I hope the line the top with fake razor wire and have torches on the top of every corner of the cage.

Lame.

There is NO reason for boxing to be in a cage other than that's the easiest way for Adrenaline to fit the fight into the mma card.

The cage serves NO useful purpose in combat taking place standing.

Yeah but it's easier to hang condomdepot.com and Tapout posters over the top of a cage during fighter introductions.

Did you expect them to import a separate boxing ring into an otherwise mma cage event simply to accomodate a boxing match with Tim Sylvia as the headliner?

No, I fully expected lameness, and that is indeed the case.
Doesn't mean that I can't express my disapproval for same.

Thats not boxing then. Thats punching each other in a cage.

The ring is part of boxing. Certain techniques are dependent on the ropes and corners.

This is stupid.

This whole thing is a giant waste of time. If Tim Sylva wants to turn pro in boxing why doesnt he actually fight someone who is relevant in the last 5-10 years

And lions....
lions need to be on the outside of the cage pacing back and forth.
Razor wire, flaming torches and lions.

And a nu-metal group on a raised platform.

Because he'll get schooled.

He's fighting Mercer because he thinks he has a shot at winning.

Im a little dissappointed myself for not being able to see Tim Sylvia use the rope-a-dope

I think George Foreman would have beat Ali in a cage.

This opens up all sorts of avenues in ridculous fantasy fight threads.

HAHAH yeah, I mean some people really go over the top in their love for the Diaz brothers. I just cannot like them, I dont like the way they act and I really dont think there anywhere near as good as some of their fans think they are.

Most of Stockton smells like cow shit, so the general irritability of its residents is almost understandable.

George wasn't gonna fall for the rope-a-dope twice, so unless Ali came up with another amazing strategy, i personally think Foreman would've beaten Ali in a ring if their rematch had happened.

Anyways, i guess it's no surprise that the Mercer/Sylvia match is happening in a cage. Either way, im hoping Mercer can pull off the victory.
