Anderson Silva is the best boxer in mma, and looked like shit in his pro boxing match. The size of the gloves for one change the whole game. If Vitor would've been training for pure boxing and not mma he could have been elite.
Dos Santos leads with the upper cut which is a day one mistake for any boxer. Doesn't make him a shit boxer, just someone who adapted to mma striking and distance
