It was embarrassing the way he went into the fight disrespecting MMA and saying he could just go in there and KO the guy out (UFC HOF)reggaereggae wrote:WelshJack wrote:James Toney 0-1![]()

He is the last person to beat Conor McGregor who is a bit of a star in Ireland at the moment.Martin H wrote:Joe Duffy went 10-1 in MMA, and beat two guys who are now winning fights in the UFC. He's now 4-0 as a pro boxer based in London.
Re: Pro boxers in MMA?
Former IBF cruiser champ James Warring went 2-1 in MMA. He also had a bash at K1 and got flattened by Peter Aerts (no real shame there).
Another former IBF cruiser champ had a go at MMA too - Imamu Mayfield.
I'm sure someone else did from that era/weight. Mind's gone blank.
