Which one of the practical skills of boxing and mixed martial arts fighting is better? Fans who like to watch the game must have questions about this. Last year's game between Mayweather and McGregor also caused great controversy. Under boxing rules, Mayweather easily defeated McGregor, but what if it was the MMA rule? Is it McGregor defeated Mayweather, or Mayweather KO McGregor with one punch? Today we will take a look at a few cross-border battles between boxers and MMA players.
1974, boxing champion Ali fought against Japanese MMA player Antonio Pigmu. Ali requires Pigmu not to use head, elbow, joint skills, throwing skills, kicking above the waist, and using flat palm cuts to fight Pigmu. Under such rules, Pigmu lay on the ground and kicked Ali's legs, and finally ended with a draw. After the game, Ali's thigh was kicked out of internal blood and had a small degree of bone crack. This "War of the Century" is called the biggest farce in history, and Ali's reputation was ruined by this game.
2009, former WBO and Olympic boxing champion Remersell fought against UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia. After the game started, it took only a dozen seconds. Before Tim Sylvia fell close to the opponent and hit the ground, she was directly KOed by Remersell in the face with a punch.
The first two levels of World boxing champion After retirement, Kado Mayoga went to some MMA leagues to participate in the competition. In a game, he played against MMA young player Renee Martinez. At the beginning of the game, Martinez restricted Mayoga by hugging, and then fell to the ground to fix Mayoga with joint skills. The boxing champion's heavy punch was useless and could only admit defeat.
In the first UFC match in 1994, the US IBC boxing champion Gilmosen fought against Baroo player Gracie. At the beginning of the game, Gracie grabbed Gilmosen's hand and fell to the ground, and pressed on the opponent. Gilmosen had never been knocked down like this. He was at a loss and had to admit defeat. Gracie also became the first world champion in the UFC.
IBF heavyweight champion James Tony fought against UFC champion Landy Kudrow in 2010 because the two people hyped for a long time before the game, but at the beginning of the game, Landy Kudrow used wrestling skills to fall Tony, and then a triangular lock directly made Tony surrender and admit defeat.
It can be seen that these "cross-border battles" all have similarities, that is, the quality of the game is quite poor, Sylvia was bored by Remersel's ten-second KO game, Zhumu and Ali were still bored in the game for nearly an hour, and as long as the boxer was thrown, the winner was basically decided.
