The Best Pure Boxers in The UFC Today

There are a lot of decent strikers in the UFC but today we going to look at the best pure boxers in the UFC today

5. Shane Burgos- The highly rank featherweight has proven that he has hands of steel when it comes to his pure boxing skills inside of the Octagon with multiple knock outs on his MMA record. He has knockout many top-quality fights including Makwan Amirkhani and Cub Swanson.  In recent memory he lost a split decision to Josh Emmet and he suffer a KO lost to Barboza. Do not get it twisted this featherweights’ hands are not to be likely.

4.  Cody Garbrandt- This former bantamweight champion has the one punch power in his that you usually see in a heavyweight. One you watch do not except to the fight go the distance with only two of his fights going the distance. His most famous fight being his destruction of Domonic Cruz where there were multiple knock downs in the fights.  

3. Jorge Masvidal- Gambred is one of toughest guys to ever step into the octagon with only being knockout twice in his career. He has many knockouts just with his hands alone with the one that comes to mind being when he turned Darren Till as stiff as board. In my opinion the reason that makes him such a good boxer is his ability to switch stances with ease that played a massive factor in the Till knockout. If all that is not enough a lot of UFC fighters have state that he is the best pure boxing in the UFC today.

2. Dustin Poirier- The diamond is the true number on contender in the UFC lightweight division. He is a southpaw which means that he has a tricky style to fight against. The evidence to back up how good his boxing skills are when you look at his record with knockouts over top quality strikers McGregor and Gaethje with the Gaethje fight doing it off one leg.

1. Max Holloway- This man is one of the most fun fighters to watch in the UFC. He best boxing performance came in his last fight where he threw the most amount strikes in a UFC fight. You have just got to look at his combos to see how much he throws and lands in a fight. He is also good because he can just keep punching. He also has the most significant strikes in UFC history.
