Diaz vs Maynard tonight

[Dolph'sZiggler]

Hope Nate kills him

Did you see what El Nino did to him? That was FOTY IMO even though it was a beating.

 

[Crayo]

Nah no idea who El Nino is

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I love Nate so much.

Nate would pick him apart just like Gil but it would be great to see because Diego is such a crazy bastard he is just glutton for the punishment and then comes back like a cyborg (like r3 vs Gil)

I would love to see it

Nate shows technique >> strength with his slick judo

I would love to take up judo. In a street fight that shit is unstoppable

I've always found boxing to be far more useful in a street fight. Around here street fights are just punches and headlocks. You see so many missed punches, but the boxers dominate everything. So much art into a proper punch.

If all you see is punches and headlocks that would just make judo even more impactful. What is a boxer going to do when you go over grab him by the shirt collar and dumptruck him on his fucking head?

edit: I've boxed plenty before anyhow, so coupling my decent hand speed/footwork with judo would be enough to take care of myself in most scenarios

 

[Crayo]

Not at all. The punches are normally chaotic where 95% of them are missing or not landing where you want them to. I do boxing and it's remarkable how much you learn about when to punch and what range to be at and such; it ain't all just about technique. I think anyone can get out of a headlock pretty easily without knowing any Judo skills. I guess Judo can help against a much heavier opponent but otherwise I'd much rather my boxing knowledge. One punch is enough for you to win the fight and get out of the danger you're in.

 

[Crayo]

Also by your logic the boxer is fighting a Judo specialist. I can flip that on you (pun intended) and say what's a Judo guy going to do when a quick-firing boxer is firing punch after punch his way with accuracy, power, and control? Each technique has its advantages, but in a street fight environment I'd much rather my boxing ability.

 

[Dolph'sZiggler]

I'm not going to get into a hypothetical street fight convo because there are literally hundreds of variables we could bring up

bottom line is judo is awesome and incredibly practical in a fight and should be utilized in MMA more

edit: Also I'm not really approaching this as "boxing vs judo" like you are. I have a decent amount of boxing training under my belt, I would be adding the judo in addition to that, as I said.

Sambo is pretty awesome too isn't it? Expecting a Fedor pic from dz now.

I guess lol, only sambo fighter I know is Fedor. It is mainly a russian thing that incorporates striking, judo and jui jitsu.
