Why is MMA striking so sloppy?

Boxing 40/0 world champion ELITE striking

He is very wild and sloppy in most of his fights. Boxing fans even admit this, and he is at the highest level possible. 'Good boxer' LMAO, wonder what the bad ones look like.

He still has better striking than any mma fighter
 
Grappling is alot more important in the ufc.

You can have aweful striking, with an above average ground game you can still win fights.


And the ufc has too many low level fighters. Too many fighters period.
 
Sometimes its though lack of ability but also the nature of the sport means that MMA striking looks different to boxing or kickboxing. In those sports is MUCH easier to have a tighter guard with the larger gloves and lack of grappling, in MMA though your far more open and a lot of strikes that wouldn't work in other sports do.

Most obviously looping punchs are far more effective in MMA, the kind of short that would deflect harmlessly off of boxing gloves can sneak though with MMA gloves.

Bullshit. Read my post about kickboxers. 1 headkick and hes done. Youtube kickboxing heavbyweight champ vs boxing heavyweight champ, ended with the first kick thrown, boxer gave up when he realised his SHITTY DEFENSE only works against men that agree to throw fists in a very specific manner.

I'd much rather be a dude that can throw very good knees, very good kicks, and veyr good punches, than a dude that can throw awesome punches, because the dude that throws awesome punches is open to so many angles and attacks. 1 headkick and he is done. Just like what happeend to that cuck boxing champ.

What is TRULY ironic is, you are mocking MMA striking, but have you seen what fucking happens when a kickboxing (alot of MMA strikes are kickboxers) fights a boxer? Kickboxing world champ vs boxing world champ at heavyweight and literally 1 headkick was thrown to start the fight and boxer gave up. Youtube it. A 70% power headkick at most and he went NOPE i am done. Never seen him do that in boxing. Fight lasted 10-20 seconds.

LMAO retard. The guy he beat is fucking 5/4 in the ring! Hes a complete bum. I gave you info on two champions from both sports going at it, KICKBOXING champ vs BOXING CHAMP and 1 KICK and the boxer was done and gave up, wasn't even full charge kick.

You gave me a clip of a 5/4 kick boxer losing, who gives a shit. YOu are further proving my poiint.

No one in the UFC has better striking than deontay wilder.
 

lol are you blind, or are you comparing 2018 to 2017? Compare Chuck Liddell and Wanderlei Silva to Daniel Cormier and Alexander Gustafsson, the latter two are leagues better and the same comparisons can be made in any division. 10 years ago, MMA fighters didn't even jab except for BJ Penn and GSP.
 
This is the 'current' boxing heavyweight champion of the world in the states. INCREDIBLE ACCURACY and TIMING (yeah right, sloppy as fuck). Get the fuck out of here. Boxers have shit tons of holes in their game and that is all they do. Tell me when you have seen an MMA champion that is undefeated throw punches that bad. If an MMA guy that was even 10/2 (this boxer is 40/0) threw those same punches you would be saying how sloppy and bad they are :)

Wilder is a good name for him.

"Better striking" well we found the retard of the day. Newsflash, deontay wilder is a complete bum at all forms of striking other than boxing. So yes many many guys have far better striking than deontay wilder.

Lets see if deontay wilder can block a cro cop headkick when even the best kickboxers at the time couldn't but yet Debumtay wilder doesn't even know basic kickboxing defense.

Deontay wilder is a kickboxer?

Deontay wilder is a muay thai expert?

Deontay wilder is a sambo expert?

Deontay wilder is even basic level of striking at anything other than boxing?

LMAO retard of the day detected.

You are delusional when kickboxing champs have beaten boxing champs in 1 kick, never seen it happen in reverse ever, because the boxers only know 1 small aspect of striking, are you seriously suggesting that deontay wilder knows how to check kicks and defend against headkicks and body kicks and every other type of angle of a kick, while punches can slip in too? Ofcourse you are, because you are a retard.

If he threw that exact super sloppy comby against a muay thai or kickboxing guy hes getting kneed or kicked right in the jaw, and it hurts alot more than a punch.

the sheer amount of time they need to train all the different aspects means that they will never be as good as a pure striker.

How so? Kickboxing world champ beat heavyweight champ in 1 shot. The best you could show me was a bum 5/4 kickboxer getting beaten by a boxing champ with 50 KO's.

I know a few boxing coaches personally, one of them is a friends dad who watches MMA too. He KNOWS that headkicks can just fly in and clip you, especially if you throw like Debumtay Wilder whos 40/0 and 35 of his fights are padded. Hasn't he only fought like 2 or 3 top ranked guys?
