Jose Aldo and Eddie Alvarez poor boxing fundamentals

[Headkicktoleg]

That's all it takes, which is why MMA boxing has a long way to go.

Meh. That's like saying football tackling has a long way to go because they don't wrap up on tackles as well as Rugby players, but they don't have to because they have a lot of pads. They can use other means to get guys down besides perfect form tackles so it will never be their focus.

It's been proven scientifically.

I have beaten Steven Segal in a street fight. I am not to be fucked with.

When Conor beguiles you to the dead zone, you won't see that straight & wake up to the bright light....

 

[Sleepdancer]

You have never seen Aldo fight besides the Conor fight right?

What's the name of that other fighter who doesn't throw any jabs and almost exclusively throws a cross and lead hook? Jose and Alvarez fought him recently I just can't remember...

The jab becomes almost useless when in mixed lead like mcgreggor is in most of the time and the cross can land almost at will when set up with proper footwork. It's a whole different game mixed lead

Conor beats anyone on the feet. Nate is considered to have some of the best boxing in the sport, and didn't had anything for Conor in the first 2 rounds. Good thing the dude got a chin on him.

Yeah, then why he used leg kicks?

Leg kicks are considered part of stand up striking I believe.

Pettis has one of the worst hands for a striker. Plus his general footwork and cage awareness.

Doesn't Pettis have a Tae Kwon Do base?

You realised thompson finished Nate with kicks and punches, nothing special about nate's stand up if you don't play his game

McGregor doesn't throw jabs.

McGregor does throw jabs.

Jose is a much better boxer than most of any MMA organisation's roster.

It's all relative.

According to wiki, Pettis started TKD and boxing at the age of 5.

Not sure why he lacks so much fundamentals.

Only idiots think Nate has some of the best boxing in the sport. He also out boxed Conor the first fight
