Its obvious that Dana just has something against Kimbo because Kimbo's success would make MMA look bad. He wants his sport to be up there with boxing as a sport that requires dedication and training. Not a bunch of street fighter-turned-competitors.

He is a 1 dimensional fighter in a 3d world (ufc)

Its much easier to knock someone out in mma then it is boxing.

Not a bunch of street fighter-turned-competitors.Agreed,its always been aparent that hes disliked kimbo.He used to trash him in interviews all the time.Then when he got here he was just waiting for him to lose to cut him to make him look bad.This was all about dana whites ego and his dislike for kimbo because a lot of fighters have put on a lot worse of performances.Because kimbo could easily get in the next fight and one punch a guy.Personally id rather watch a kimbo figh then a gsp fight even though gsp is champ.gsp is scared to go toe to toe with anyone so he just takes it to the ground.And theirs nothing more boring then watching two guys perform homoerotic moves on eachoter for 5 minutes untile the round is up.
Quote from: Jaydc didnt do it,that bitch is lying. on May 11, 2010, 11:05:21 AMIts much easier to knock someone out in mma then it is boxing.It is because you can jump on your opponent as soon as they hit the ground and the refs have to stop the fight. but boxers are heavier handed then MMA'rs. Punching is the only offense they work on...so naturally Kimbo getting floored by a weak jab from a Mixed Martial Artist would lead me to believe he doesnt have the greatest a chin...and a boxer would put him to sleep.

It also drastically increases the chances of cuts from a punch. The fact that boxing gloves are larger, heavier, and have a wider range of impact on the head actually make it easier to KO someone. The force of hitting someone with a larger object is quite a bit higher. When comparing a standard boxing glove to a standarn MMA glove, the boxing glove hits with over twice the force...AND with a wider range of impact. Its easier to KO someone with a boxing glove. If youve been in a fight before u know, it isnt always so easy to actually knock somebody out with your bare fists. You can do it, but its not so easy. When you hit someone flush with a boxing glove, you can really stagger them.

If youve been in a fight before u know, it isnt always so easy to actually knock somebody out with your bare fists. You can do it, but its not so easy. When you hit someone flush with a boxing glove, you can really stagger them.I can add in and say that in a real fight with a bare fist, it's easier to mark someone's face, black eyes come fast and scraps and cuts are easier to get on the face, but I never been knocked out or knocked out anybody in a bare fist fight. I've broken noses, I've knocked out teeth and busted my hand in the same punch but no knock outs. Now with gloves I've seen people drop like flies. A real boxing glove, the kind they use in actual boxing matches, HURT, I mean hurt bad. They are not made to protect fighters from brain damage, they are made to protect fighters hands so they can fight longer. They are hard and stiff, and if you wear them out right you can still get knuckle in your punches, as Mike Tyson said he did before every fight. He'd break-in his gloves until he felt his knuckles. So all the force of a larger boxing glove, combined with the fact they are not soft, and then potentially still getting hit with a protected knuckle, it's not a good thing for the weak.
