How many punches do you think it would take before the people who could grapple started ground and pounding?In a real fight most fighters MMA or otherwise probably would throw punches first.

This is a stupid argument. Someone on reddit or somewhere came up with it and people ran with it like it was some sort of gotcha.
We're talking martial arts obviously mechanical aids are off limits in a "real fight". By this logic you could keep going forever with drones, artillery and eventually nukes. Yeah the guy with the gun will be screwed right? Who tf thought this was an actual intelligent argument?
Every able bodied person on earth is born with the legs, elbows and hands needed to do MMA. You know what they aint born with? A handgun and a conceal carry permit.
Is this what the kids call a Word Salad?MMA is not inferior at all.
Example: take 2 alcoholics that spend their time at the bar all day.
Drunk 1 plays pool, darts, cornhole and foosball all day and is really good at all four. (MMA)
Drunk 2 plays pool all day and is exceptionally talented at it. (Boxer)
When drunk 1 and drunk 2 play each other, drunk 2 easily wins 97 out of 100 games against drunk 1.
That doesn't mean drunk 1 should be embarrassed as he spends only a fraction of his training time perfecting his pool game because he has other areas to focus on.
If both guys entered a bar game Olympics event(MMA fight), drunk 1 would be the obvious favorite even if he lost the round of darts.
They learned from James Toney that they don't stand a chance outside of the first exchange ala Mercer Sylvia.The problem is no one will ever see it because boxers refuse to do mma. So instead everyone will only see mma fighters get humiliated in boxing
Carrying a handgun is as easy as picking up a 2x4….
No one is dumb enough to fight an mma fighter one on one with rules. Same reason Jorge masvidal still hits and run on the streets
Also, are we still using the gayest term ever….OCTAGON WARRIOR!!?
Not as big of an embarrassment to the MMA community as your posts continue to beIf only he stopped with the fury fight then MMA wouldn’t look as inferior. Casuals will have a hard time believing the heavyweight champ is the “baddest man on the planet” from now on. I understand it should've been expected for Francis to get outboxed against Joshua but to get absolutely humiliated and knocked out brutally within 2 rounds isn’t a good look for MMA and someone once considered the baddest man on the planet.
Why are you here? Do you have any non-hypocritical you can add to threads, cuz that seems to be all you parrot latelyWhats embarrassing is weirdo losers sitting at home who think their opinion matters.
There's a good chance the real fight would result in Francis walking into a punch and getting knocked out before he got a chance to take it to the ground.No. He's still the baddest man on the planet. If you think Joshua would beat him in a real fight, power slap yourself.
LMAO most people don't ground and pound, but clinch first. Most MMA street fights I see them throw punches, perhaps holding as well, but nobody WANTS to go to the ground and fight there if they don't have to. Especially if Joshua and Ngannou had never met.
That didn't even happen when Francis was restricted to only throwing punches.There's a good chance the real fight would result in Francis walking into a punch and getting knocked out before he got a chance to take it to the ground.
Oh, must have been a different Francis I just saw walking into punches and repeatedly getting knocked down then. If it had been MMA rules this other Francis would have been grounded and pounded in this first round.That didn't even happen when Francis was restricted to only throwing punches.
