it goes both ways mate. Put one of these louts into a ring and make them fight by the Queensbury rules, and they would be taken apart.
I don't know about that. I'd wager that a proficient muy thai fighter would be a great match for a proficient boxer.

But someone schooled in boxing into a fight where it is considered "sporting" to
dip your gloves in resin and broken glass, and I'm sure youre right, they'd have a rough time.
I'm not that into mma, so i guess this might just reflect that, but i've never heard of this happening at a mma event. I have seen the movie kickboxer- van damme movies are not the best places to learn things.

That said, whatever martial art you know... I wouldnt back many people against George Foreman in a no hold bars fight when he was in his prime. He was a monster. Even in his late 40's and hopelessly slow and fat, he could punch with the force of a car wreck.
I'd back anyone over age 25 in the grace family over foreman any day.
