Was DC a better boxer than Fedor?

[Natural Order]

Of course boxers are taught haymakers. The overhand right is a formal boxing punch.

Who said anything about overhand haymakers?

Fedor's cleanest punch worth noting towards boxing was likely the shot on Bret Rogers.

His technique was awful, and I'm a MASSIVE Fedor fan.

Edit - oh, it's you....lol, where'd your kick videos go Sensei?

Dc was technically a better boxer …..But Fedor was more dangerous and incredibly fast

Fedor benefitted greatly from the fact that Pride FC wasn't modern MMA. It was founded as an offshoot of professional wrestling with varying degrees of kayfabe. When Fedor fought under the unified rules in an octagon, he struggled to adjust to legitimate competition and ended up being mostly a punching bag.

I mean Roy Jones threw crazy shit that you aint supposed to be doing in Boxing. Because he was fast enough to get away with it.

Fedor did the same shit.

DC was scared to death to strike with old man Anderson XD

But Fedor would be too

Fedor is a way better boxer even though I feel DC beats him in a MMA fight. DC isn't really a striker. Fedor is a little unorthodox but he knew what he wanted to do while boxing.

Fedor and DC have in common that they look like they have zero muscles in their body, tubby fat, yet are strong as fuck

 

[r-harper-1]

Fedor stood with Prime Crocop and won. Has DC ever fought an elite striker in their prime, and kept it standing? He wouldn't box with Derrick Lewis ffs

Fedor stood for the first round and lay n pray most of the fight after

Fedor had feints, handtraps, head movement, all sorts of shit nowadays mma strikers barely use, some stuff which DC doesnt use.

But yeah lets make this thread lol

Any punch that delivers power is good technique ,. Maybe you mean form

Prime Fedor not gonna win any body building competitions ….but he wasn’t a slob lol

 

[jko1355]

lol you really played yourself with this.

How?

They used to show all the pride fights on spike... commentated by Frank Trigg.. in like 2009... thats when I fell in love with Gomi and Fedor and started training at Lions Den Scottsdale az with Ben Askren.. (now fight ready Cejudo)

I've been here forever and don't troll... but I played myself by saying ive watched Fedors fights and for the majority of his career he was primarily a grappler?

I'll be more clear... I saw all of his Pride fights... his fights vs Tim and Andre... then strikeforce and Bellator... i think his striking looked the best around the Tim fight but he still liked to lunge forward with slapping strikes chin up...
