I think this is an absolute no-brainer. You put Manny Pacquaio or Floyd Mayweather in against any of these UFC fighters and they would go through them before the UFC fighter even had the chance to bring them to the ground. UFC fighters have average boxing skills, they learn too many disciplines making them average at best at each one. Boxers focus on the tools that count. Tony Bellew would blitz them all.
D dot T: I laughed at your comments.

lol, UFC fighters have much less rules on their styles. its MIXED MARTIAL ARTS, there are lots of styles which can easily outclass a boxer, UFC fighters are much more conditioned, they have to withstand heavier impacts (since the gloved are much thinner then boxing gloved and u can knee and elbow) , u need to have better stamina because ur going to be using more parts of ur body and moving around much more since u will be on the floor at times, ufc fighter need to be able to hold a grapple which is extremely exhausting. UFC fighters do not have average boxing skills, they have almost equal skills to a boxer at punching, however when u say they have too many displines thats stupid, the more disaplines a fighter has the more styles he know which have an advantage over boxing,
I love boxing way more than UFC/MMA but in reality there is no match when the boxer is taken down to the ground. There are videos on youtube.com where different fighting styles meet. For one, jiu-jitsu practitioners seem to always dominate once they take their opponents to the ground. Boxers have great conditioning though and many of them possess better knockout power but in a fight like that they would be off balance and could break their front leg as boxers usually put their weight on their front leg (meaning a good leg kick to the front knee and that would be painful). Just try standing on one leg and having someone kick your knee. Same result.
