Do You Still Think JDS Has Better Boxing?

[Michael13]

It's been made very clear in their last 2 fights that Cain's boxing is light years ahead of Junior's.

For years, people have mistaken Juniors knockout power for elite level boxing........Cain proves otherwise.

Did you really post this shit?

 

[Lost]

I still do. It wasn't really the boxing that made the difference it was the pressure. imo

 

[BrazilianDude]

That's probably why Cain felt the need to keep Junior pressed against the cage the entire fight, right?

 

[bicpup269]

Yeah, but Cain is better at holding people against cages for most of a round though.

 

[Karelinator]

Punching dude while pressing him against the cage, controlling him with the forehead, throwing stomps and knees is not boxing, though.

 

[MartyMcFry]

Don't know what the hell you were watching.

 

[NBKondit**]

Cain showed great boxing when he got oustruck and dropped by Kongo 3 times before making it a pure ground battle

 

[JayElectra]

In some respects Cain is better, in some respects JDS is better.

 

[99Silva]

Cain is better everywhere..

 

[styopa]

Light years? Really? Not just a little more effective due to the threat of TD, but light years ahead of Junior's?

 

[irish_thug]

Cain is better everywhere..

Everywhere that is pressed up against a cage, yes.

You've heard of circling in boxing right instead of going straight back? or some sort of defense? Just checking... you really don't know shit about boxing. It's not just throwing hands :/.

 

[countswagula]

Yes I do believe in a boxing or kickboxing ring you'd see a clear advantage for Junior, but as it turns out Cain's takedowns and clinch game make all the difference in MMA.

 

[Minnja]

In some respects Cain is better, in some respects JDS is better.

This. Cain is also able to work his striking better against JDS due to his aggressive wrestling-boxer style. I think JDS would beat Cain in a pure striking match, but Cain will often outstrike JDS in an MMA match due to the cage and wrestling factors.

 

[Jew Jif Shoes]

If you've watched MMA for this long and don't see how much the fact that Cain was constantly trying for takedowns helped his striking, I don't know what to tell you.

JDS is a better pure striker than Cain, but Cain is more well rounded.

 

[SKITZADACTYL]

fear of the takedown negguh, also yeah JDS has better boxing, and would do so much better in actual boxing than cain.

 

[FlowWithTheGo23]

Absolutely.

 

[Shogun Rising]

Cain's comfortably outstruck him 2 straight fights now.

The case can be made.

 

[istay]

When they were separated JDS landed the better shots.
