Because due to his shape and unathleticism on the ground, he's too much of an outlier to be included in any serious discussion about Boxing vs. MMA?
Basically, in spite of all his stand-up ability, as soon as he goes on the ground for any reason, he's too round and unathletic to get too his feet or intelligently defend himself without getting finished, so he's not indicative of how any other boxer would fare in a MMA fight.
He's too unique to be included in any conversation of this type except a "Butterbean vs....?" discussion.
