Overeem never got outstruck when he was Ubereem. Hunt is like 45. He wasn't getting outstruck 15 years ago and he was an average K-1 fighter. And plus, they're HW kickboxers. Regional level boxing usually > world class level upper weight class kickboxing.6 of 8 current male champions have a wrestling base.
People with better striking bases get outstruck all the time - Anderson by Whiteman, Wonderboy by Woodley, Gus by Rumble, Holly by Cyborg, Overeem by tons of people, Hunt by tons of people, Joanna by Rose, etc.
Those other guys striking bases are, what exactly? That's the point. You're talking a national level wrestler in a guy like Rumble, and Gus' striking background is what? Just being tall? Wonderboy is what? Champion in karate? Anderson's boxing background is what? Getting KOd by a guy without a wikipedia page?
Get Anthony Joshua into MMA and then we can talk.
