Chimpanzee Fight Question From El Diablo

Sorry to derail the thread, but, as a boxing fan and more recently a mixed martial arts fan, a question I have been pondering is whether an average boxer, say ranked 50 in the world, could beat the top MMA striker in a similar weight class if they had to play by boxing rules.

I know Fedor could beat any boxer if they played by MMA rules, but I think an average boxer could beat Fedor if they played by boxing rules.

Of course the boxer would win at boxing. There is more money in boxing. If any MMA fighter could compete at boxing he would be a boxer. Unless you really think they aren't in it for the money.
