MMA/NBA fans which mma fighter do you liken your fave nba

[DelaneyRudd]

I'll bump this and move it to the MMA/Boxing board.

Anderson Silva = Kevin Durant. I don't even need to explain this.

Yes you do seeing as how Anderson silva is a douche and KD is a nice dude.

edit: Also, i would say shogun is nothing like melo. melo hasn't won **** for his team and seems like hes ready to ditch his town for NY.

Shogun is one of the best LHW ever, dominated pride and won the grandprix. Then he hurt his knees real bad and still beat machida twice to be the current ufc champion.

[El Hardee]

Big Country = Shaq
Lebron = Bones Jones
Kobe = GSP
Lamar Odom = Chris Lytle
Pau Gasol = Frank Mir
Ron Artest = Nick Diaz

[anthoang]

Cung Le = Michael Jordan - both are exciting to watch. both are highly skilled. both can do things other players can't do. both have been in movies.

[Nemesis21]

Not sure, I'm a Magic fan so ...

[K1NG]

Apparently the Durant/Silva comparison does need an explanation; both nicknames are from the Arachnid family.

I think you're the only one that got the joke.

My favorite MMA fighter right now is Jon "Bones" Jones and I would compare him to Kevin Durant right now, a young up-and-comer who will be a future champion.

The chances of Jon Jones becoming a champion are about as good as David Lee becoming the MVP.

I love bones but yeah, i'm not too sure if he's a future champion. He's definitely a good contender though, so I don't know if the david lee comparison is relevant

If Rondo had a consistent jumpshot and could shoot free throws, he'd be Jose Aldo.

I don't know much about basketball, it's what Jerry Lee Lewis would call a "f** sport". But the Melo and Shogun comparison is accurate as far as physical attributes, absolutely. Big, hefty dudes with incredible agility and skill.

Rampage and Artest too for personality. They're both crazy, but also really heartfelt and introspective and beautiful people who just get carried away.

Anderson Silva = Kevin Durant. I don't even need to explain this.

STFU. LOL. Stupid petty squabbles about sports teams. TMAC VS KOBE? KOBE'S RINGS ARE ALL SHAQ. HE'S SO OVERRATED. JUST A RAPIST BALL HOG. TMAC'S WAY MORE TALENTED.

[Not Bias]

Dennis Rodman = Ken Shamrock, both sucked at wrestling.

[GregOden]

Shogun says Jon Jones is the most talented fighter he's ever seen. "He's so good it's unfair." Who can beat him at light heavyweight? The only guy that can neutralize his judo/wrestling is Machida, IMO.
