Almost every MMA article that is published is about current events in the sport or about a fighter in general. In this article it is all about the people who make this sport possible, the fans.
Everyone has their favorite fighters, but when do you truly get to talk about it? Well now is the time.
Let’s talk about combat sports. Who is your favorite MMA Fighter? Kick Boxer? Boxer? Tell the world we all want to know. This article will explain who mine are and why. Everyone will have different opinions, and that is why this article is being made.
MMA
Wanderlei “The Axe Murderer” Silva is my favorite mixed martial artist. He gives it all he has in every fight and is all about the fans. The generation I grew up in was the mean Wanderlei that was alway ready to hurt someone.
Nowadays he is a changed man. He is still a vicious fighter, but is also more for the fans and is an all around good person. At UFC 132 he will fight Chris Leben in what could be the fight of the decade. So tell me, who is your favorite MMA fighter?
Kick Boxing
Badr “The Golden Boy” Hari is my favorite kick boxer. His style is just so pure. You never know what angle he will attack you from.
At 26 years old, he has more fights than most people who are 35-40. He truly has a who’s who list of victories under his belt in his young career. His most recent fight was against Gregory Tony at “It’s Showtime, Lyon” which took place just a couple of days ago. In that bout it was his first in almost a year and he came out and won. The funny part is that he literally did nothing to obtain the victory and this was arguably his easiest bout to date.
If you do not watch Kick Boxing I highly recommend that you check out Badr Hari. So, who is your favorite Kick Boxer?
Boxing
Juan Manuel Marquez has always been my favorite boxer to watch. He has fought Pacquiao twice, one time being a draw and the other a split decision. He is now slated to face Pacquiao in November. Many people like Pacquiao, which is understandable because I like him as well. Marquez to me has always been a fun guy to watch.
As of late his only losses have been to elite guys, which is why at 37 he is still one of the best pound for pound guys in the world.
Those are just my personal favorite combat sports fighters in the world. Please leave input. I want to know who are your favorites in each category. We all have different views, but we have love for the same sport, so let’s use this to show everyone who we represent.
