You know when an MMA fan comically says that a boxer should shoot for a double leg and takedown during a boxing match? Well, that happened.
On Friday at Global Legion FC 20 in Rock Hill, South Carolina, pro boxer Daniel Baiz (14-3-1) fought Ermal Hadribeaj when he shot for a takedown. The takedown was actually beautiful; however, it was clearly illegal.
The Video
The Fite TV Twitter account posted a clip of the takedown.
“Thought that was a well-executed double leg takedown that you see in MMA, but he must have forgotten this was a boxing match. From last night’s Global Legion FC 20 on FITE.”
🥴 Thought that was a well-executed double leg takedown that you see in #MMA, but he must have forgotten this was a #boxing match.

The commentators were shocked, just like I’m sure you were watching the clip. The result of the boxing match is still unknown.
Also On The Card
