I know this must be annoying for regular guys to this forums, but I'm fairly new to watching Muay Thai and Kickboing so I just wanted to here from some more seasoned fans.

So who do you guys think would have success crossing over into pro boxing.
So if it's an annoying topic but I'm just asking a question.
Thanks

Rashad if he crossd over 15 years ago
 
Not talking about MMA Fighters people, talking about Muay Thai and Kickboxers who could cross over.
 
I would say Cro Cop. I know he was in MMA too but started in K1. He would lick Mayweathers head off in a boxing match! :eek:
 
there are couple Nak Muays with boxing careers.
 
I have no doubt Petpanomrung Kiatmuu9 will win a world title in boxing one day.

Mondam Sor Wirapon, Prajantchai Por Petnamtong, Detkart Por Pongsawang and Tukatatong Sor Jor Toipadriew are others I could see doing well.

Of course there are already a bunch of former stadium champs who are either current champs or rated highly in the 4 main sanctioning bodies.

Cro Cop actually had a colorful amateur boxing career, winning medals in several international tournaments including the world military games. I think he's a little too shot do much in boxing thees days. Realistically the names that come to mind are Saki, Spong, Barret and possibly Van Rossmalen.
 
I'll definitely look up these guys. Much appreciated.

Bunkerd's hands weren't his forte; his kicks were where the money was at.

Anyway, I'll just add Saengmanee Sor. Tienpo to stoke the fires of discussion LOL.

P.S. Not sure if everyone's trolling or if we're getting overflow from the heavies hahahaha.
 
Nieky Holzken has a 4-0 record in boxing if i'm correct. I guess Albert Kraus could make the crossover to.

It's a common joke here to bring up MMA fighters in discussions like this

Saki comes to mind, especially if he would've focused on the boxing early instead of kickboxing

Also curious to see how Tyrone Spong will do in boxing. Hari has talked about boxing a lot too, but we'll see if he does it

Spong is now training with Pedro Diaz (taugh the Cuban amatuer team, went over to Puerto Rico, was Miguel Cottos coach for a bit and now Rigondeaux and Odlanier Solis plus others coaches) so he can go in to it.

He was saying that at the end of 2013 he wanted a boxing bout but it never took place
