#2 UFC fighter who is likely to lose against the Paul brothers in boxing: Tony Ferguson
While it might be saddening for UFC fans, Tony Ferguson is clearly past the peak of his career. Ferguson recently lost to Beneil Dariush in the co-main event at UFC 262, raising serious questions about how much the 37-year old has left in his tank.
While we might remember Tony for his magnificent 12-fight win streak, the former interim lightweight champion is currently on a three-fight skid. Ferguson had previously dropped a lopsided unanimous decision against Charles Oliveira at UFC 256.
Prior to that, Tony Ferguson took an absolute beating on the way to a fifth-round TKO loss against Justin Gaethje at UFC 249. Many argue that 'El Cucuy' was never the same again after his loss against Gaethje.
Ferguson has also been criticized for his unorthodox fighting style, which could definitely prove fatal for him in a technical boxing bout. As more flaws become evident in his game, it is likely that Tony Ferguson could lose to one of the Paul siblings in a boxing match towards the tail end of his career.
#2 UFC fighter who can outclass the Paul Brothers in boxing: Israel Adesanya
UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya is undoubtedly one of the best strikers to have ever graced the octagon. With a massive kick-boxing pedigree to boast of, a boxing match against either of the Paul brothers should hardly pose a challenge to 'Izzy'.
Adesanya currently sports a 21-1 professional career with his lone career loss coming from a failed bid to become the fifth two-division UFC champion in history. Israel Adesanya has 15 KO/TKO wins to his credit, and has left elite strikers like Anderson Silva, Robert Whittaker and Paulo Costa in his wake.
In a potential match against Israel Adesanya, either of the Paul siblings would probably fail to land clean shots and would instead run into 'Izzy's' precise counters.
