agree 100%, adding any of the levels of fighting to others changes the way you fight.Quote:
getting hit changes the game alot
the mma gym i was at was heavily boxing oriented and they didnt tell us to change our punching style or that punching in these wide arching motion was the way you had to do it
of course you had to modify the boxing but this jsut meant adding thing to it like take down defense clinching etc etc
i recall it may have been nick or nate diaz talk about boxing in mma and he said that so many mma people are too busy running around just flat out saying something doesnt work instead of stfu and learning the technique and actually trying it out:D
You're not suggesting that Fedor is lazy or sloppy are you? because he doesn't have "classical boxing punches" ?Quote:

as i have said this is your point of view and your conclusion, mine is different as is alot of peoples, you seem to think most pros stand up is sloppy, i know from feeling their standup its not, you believe striking does not have to change in MMA, my views and that of the coaches i know is different
