This.

Someone with good boxing fundamentals counters these MMA brawlers and K-1 darlings easily

 

[YoudBeSurprised]

It’s all about the practitioner. You could make the argument for any art over another if you cherry pick instances like this.

 

[Dozer .]

Yup

Anderson will always be the GOAT MMA striker.

 

[mirror45]

It’s sad seeing k1 being disrespected here

 

[Baba Ghanoush]

People just wanted to be hipsters and claim otherwise. The talent pool in kickboxing is incredibly shallow. People want to be pretend it's still the mid 2000's and K-1 still fucking matters for anything lol.

And Gonzaga vs CroCop

 

[Bobby Boulders]

The winner of the main event last night was a K1 guy. And he was dominant.

 

[maxi diablo]

I was shocked how unathletic that Saki guy looked.

 

[SuperNerd]

You guys got it figured out. Congrats.

 

[gevoudane]

And Gonzaga vs CroCop

Both are kick boxers.

 

[LouisBolanos]

This is why Bob Sapp was able to beat K-1 champion twice yet got his ass kicked by Big Nog in MMA.

K-1 = F level athletes, MMA = C/D level athletes. The difference in pay says it all.

 

[Andre Xiong]

“5 ounce gloves” is probably my most used word/theme on Sherdog

It changes the game so much

MMA guy beats world class striker, not news nor does it mean mma striking should be so sloppy (which it mostly still is in 2018)

 

[Thug Rose]

mma is a fallback sport.

i cringed so hard when the commentators acted like a guy from another fucking sport has the striking advantage. when will they learn that its completely different things

 

[Draper]

Saki looked like an absolute bum. Overextended constantly

 

[Uncommon Valor]

I love how quick Sherdog turned on Saki.

 

[Chad R. Thundercock]

Mark Hunt doesn't approve of this thread

 

[Crimson Glory]

The winner of the main event last night was a K1 guy. And he was dominant.

Adesanya never fought in K-1 afaik.

 

[Yodsanan]

Adesanya never fought in K-1 afaik.

He competed under K-1 ruleset his whole career, and fought for the Glory title.
