Also, best shoulder rolls in MMA, best chin in MMA. (hes taking flush punches from a heavyweight), but the craziest thing is when he gets hit it doesnt effect his balance, it doesn't move him back. He barely rolls with it takes all its power away, his balance is NOT EFFECTED. He is still in perfect position ready to fire. He does it ALL the time, he will take two flush punches, opponent thinks they have an opening so they stay in range, but hes in perfect countering position. (Henderson)
FUCK these Anderson is a shitty boxer comments are helerious. He boxed professionally, he is a better pure boxer than 90% of the UFC add in kicks and he's at the very top. Not to mention, his movement, is as good or better than most professional boxers out there, EASY.
@xGLmedia ha ha i know who he is, i was responding to a comment that said he wanted to see the guy silva was sparring with fight in a cage, so i was asking if he meant nogueira, not who he is, but the comment was removed
awesome sparring if noguiera can hit spider like that than im sure he can do it to lesnar n lesnar wouldnt dare go to the ground carwin will beat lesnar than noguiera will submit carwin.
bull shit thers more money in the ufc than ther is in any boxing fight he could set up people do mma because they want to not for money or wat ever the fuck u think its a hobbie!
It looks like he's lettin nog hit... I guess to keep his chin conditioned to takin punches... His chin is something that's not really talked about but he's taken good shots from Rich Franklin, and Forrest Griffin... Dan Henderson pounded him pretty good too.
well if you take alot of heavy punches to the face, it might even shorten your career. i mean look at chuck, his chin is totally gone from too many punches. and about toughening the skin, if you watch ufc inside the wanderlei one, he says he spars all out because he believes it toughens his skin. anderson and wandy were once training partners so chances are they got there ideas from the same source. conditioning the chin would mean like neck excercises n shit to lessen the shock of a punch.
or allowing your face to get accustomed to being punched... When fighters begin they have to get their knuckles used to punching... The knuckles are conditioned to absorb more punishment. Why not the chin? Chuck's chin isnt really suspect. He just got hit with ko punches. Evans rocked his world. If anyone got hit with a clean right hand like that
no you cant, getting knocked out is totally different. if your talking about your face getting used to getting hit then yea. but if u get knocked out constantly your not going to get an iron jaw, thats just stupid. and knuclkes is totally different. your "chin" is your ability to withstand punches without getting dropped getting hit in the face wont help any.
yes you can condition any part of the body its the wolff theory or principle rather. i didnt say anything about getting knocked out, did i? and actually chute box fighters ko each other all the time in practice do you think they have weak chins? so that too is debatable.
yea well the other guy was talking about getting knocked out. chute box fighters ko eachother all the time because they spar all out and are extremely agressive. i never said it would give you a weaker chin im just saying getting knocked out alot wont condition your body so that you dont get knocked out. i was talking to timothyohara84, who was talking about getting knocked strengthens the chin.
dude, silva used to be a pro boxer! however roy jones would have the advantage. i think silva would do better than what people are expecting of the upcoming bout. both parties agreed to fight when silva's contract w/ ufc is up in 2010. silva also showed interest in fight fedor as well...

"After a lackluster performance against Patrick "Hatrick" Cote', Undisputed UFC Middleweight Champion Anderson Silva has traded in his MMA gloves for boxing gloves. He called out Rocky Marciano. Silva needs permission to have Marciano's body exhumed. It's unlikely Marciano will be able to make weight. An alternative match for Silva could be against former World Middleweight Champion Gerald Mclennan, who isn't dead, but confined to a wheelchair." - Sherdog
Well considering anderson is nogueiras muay thai coach im sure his boxing must be on par if not better than nogueiras.A sparring session isnt a fair reflection of skill
Who gives a shit if they're not "amazing" boxers?They're amazing fighters anyways, especially Silva.For being an all around/mma fighter,his boxing is pretty damn good, especially seeing as how he has to cross train many different styles and cant just focus on one.And if one of the boxers you speak so highly of got in the octagon, they would be tapping out in 10 seconds.Each of these styles is good in their own ring.Point is,boxers and mma fighters are all great athletes in their own disciplines
EXACTLY, I think you hit the nail on the head. Silva's boxing skills alone don't HAVE to be as good as a professional boxer's might be, he's an all-around fighter. There are a lot of professional boxers Silva would most likely destroy in an MMA match under the broader spectrum of MMA rules.
@Vigid These degenerates DO NOT understand the sport of MMA. It is def the hardest sport, way harder to master than boxing!! Like you said the fighters must be all around fighters: jiu-jitsu, muay thai, boxing, judo, wrestling. It's hard for ppl who don't know anything about it other than what they see on TV to understand
@Vigid I dunno what ur talking about lawl... I think most UFC fighters are garbage and the UFC in general is garbage... but i think anderson silva has as much boxing talent as any good boxing prospect out there... Shame hes like old as fuck!
Course u can tell hes not used to boxing range... but man he could be a sick boxer!
@Gooseman2k2 yeah thats all boxers have on him, he leans, lunges, charges, crosses his feet. He pulls the trigger alot earlier than a boxer would, but he's spared pro boxers and done fine so....meh. Those techniques could be good for throwing a boxer completely off. Look at power charge he likes to try every now and again 4:00, boxers dont appretiate that shit. Im a boxer btw lol
Silva's boxing record is 1-1(loss by KO). Both fights against nobodies. Former UFC World Champ Jens Pulver in a scheduled 4 round boxing match, was knocked down by an absolute nobody who wasn't even ranked. Pulver won by close decision. Pitiful. And any asshole who claims 4 oz gloves are more dangerous than 8 oz boxing gloves are total retards. Boxers do incredible damage with 8 oz gloves. Just look at the stats. Watching this clip made me laugh.Stay in MMA Silva, it's better for your health.
You're an idiot. Boxers are good punchers, no doubt--but boxing is only one aspect of fighting overall. MMA fighters--who practice fighting in its TOTALITY--or at least as close as it can be to actual fighting as a sport train in boxing only to sharpen their overall skills. Face it, boxing alone is obsolete in the face of MMA. MMA fighters have to train in a VARIETY of fighting styles to be the best. Boxing is just one. Boxers stay out of the cage for a good reason.
Wow, you can take what I say and reverse it then express some moronic perception of me that's completely irrelevant? Congratulations, you've confirmed the fact that you ARE an idiot. Oh and for the record: no, I'm not a white boy. Idiot.

Too different of sports to compare. Silva would get killed against an elite pro in boxing. Just cause a guy spars with a pro boxer doesn't make him one. Silva is awesome but all fight styles should be respected. And for the record, more boxers die in the ring than MMA, so who avoiding what ring?
maybe but if you let a pro boxer fight straight boxing and let silva fight muay thai i bet silva wins the fight. they are different sports but if you ask me muay thai is more effective than straight boxing
yes,on a very poor national team,Brazil isnt exactly a strong boxing country ,also they trained for a few months in cuba,doesnt mean they were anywhere near that standard.
You do realize that many nationalities fight in the UFC not to mention the UFC has some of the best competition and fighters in the world incase you have been living under a rock for the past few years which clearly you have.
@mrKANYEwes He wasn't originally a boxer, he started off professionally with Muay Thai, then did a couple pro boxing events, then transitioned into MMA.
@mrKANYEwes Dude what do you not understand about your own conversation? You said he was originally a boxer....he wasn't. You said boxing helped him out, who disagrees? You just brought up a completely different conversation as soon as your old one got proved wrong.
You are kidding right? Both of these guys have pro boxing records in brazil. Rodrigo's brother rogerio trains boxing with the Brazilian olympic team man.
For christs sake look at the video, their sparring is fantastic considering the speed for punches that are about 70% and being pulled. Fantastic clinch workout and head movement, lightning quick combinations and some really good improvisation.
you are crazy dude... Not to mention these guys are both BJJ black belts.
wow people actually thinking silva would beat jones in a boxing match. really there are a bunch of real fucking idiots out there who dont know shit. this is probably the most sloppiest boxing match i ever seen. silva kept his hands down the whole fight and moved around in a bad stance. haha a nog was even worst
many pro boxers leave their hands down, its a part of different techniques and stances that you're probably not even familiar. When you have strong head movement you bait your opponent in with jabs by leaving a hand down and counter with a lead hook. Watch him execute it.
And nothing wrong with Nog's technique, it's a classic boxing stance.
fuck you..are you guys comparing this sloppy ass fucking shit to mayweather? you guys are bunch of fuckin retards..you clearly dont watch boxing and love to suck andersons nuts..and different techniques? you call that shit technique? man get the fuck out of here..haha you a funny with your bait and counter hook haha dumb fuckin shit..in boxing there are guy 10 times faster then him and would get his ass knocked out..you sound like a dumb shit and dont know shit about boxing..
how cool is that. everybody uses head protection while sparring but Anderson Silva. like 'ahh these newbs won't hit me anyway' :D

many pro boxers leave their hands down, its a part of different techniques and stances that you're probably not even familiar. When you have strong head movement you bait your opponent in with jabs by leaving a hand down and counter with a lead hook. Watch him execute it.
And nothing wrong with Nog's technique, it's a classic boxing stance.

Exactly, Mayweather is a great example of this.
