Against real MMA heavyweights like Fedor Emelianenko, Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic, Sergei Kharitonov, Fabricio Werdum, Aleksander Emelianenko, Josh Barnett... they would absolutely have no chance. But UFC heavyweight division is a joke and their champion Tim Sylvia is a third grade mediocre fighter at best. In a match against him for instance I would bet on Wladimir any day. Of all the UFC heavyweights I think that Frank Mir, who is a grappling expert, would probably have the best chance of defeating Wladimir.

You could have the same argument the other way round as well, could for example Matt Hughes the longest reigning ufc champ get in a ring and box against Mayweather, Margarito, Hatton, Baldomir, Moseley, De la Hoya, do you need me to go on he wouldn't have a chance they are completely different sports and your question is pathetic.

Two different sports. If it was a match with mixed martial arts rules, the UFC or Pride Fighter would win. If it was a match with boxing rules, the boxer would win. Simple, simple, simple.

Not a chance, being good in UFC is not just a case of being an animal. UFC fighters are often skilled in Ju-jitsu, brazilian ju-jitsu, thai boxing and many other martial arts. Boxers are good with two limbs only. I think a much smaller and lighter UFC fighter would comprehensively beat a heavyweight boxer.

No. It's an unfair matchup. Boxers are only using their hands
