So can we all agree that Boxing > MMA

[GMOGMediaTV]

I mean really in terms of competitive fights this year. Boxing has displayed more competitive and diverse matches then anything that the MMA has shown this year.

I can't think of an MMA match that was more exciting to watch this year than Bradley vs Provodnikov for example.

Both can be good, both can suck.

Yeah bro. At least boxing fans know a flop when they say it. Silva going down with slaps and nikkaz is swearin' he was properly defeated

 

[Amare's Right Hook]

Pacquiao dove too......right past Floyd.

Both sports require you to know when there's going to be a good fight. MMA fans knew not to tell their friends to get hype for a Tim Sylvia fight for example. And when Hopkins fought Winky Wright I didn't tell a soul about that fight either. Both sports can have stinkers and both can have great fights imo. I do prefer boxing though.

The two sports exist on their own. Lets not have some constant mma vs boxing flame war because we have our own ofrum.

While we're at it, can we say that football is much better than swimming, and that basketball is much better than soccer, and that apples are better than oranges?

can't really say that...im a boxing head but ive also watched mma since ufc 1...both sports have their pros and cons but doesn't make it less enjoyable for me to watch

Last four posts summed everything I was about to say nicely.

This can be said about virtually any sport.

Agreed. I'm a huge MMA fan, but respect boxing as well. It's all subjective.

 

[I-Hate-You]

For me, good boxing >>>>>>> good MMA any day. But I do like MMA.

 

[Nintendough]

I prefer MMA because I did martial arts training and sparing. I do however respect and appreciate good boxing.

Yea, we gotta nip this in the bud early because there are lonely posters out there that have nothing to offer so they take the troll route with the mma is gay bullshyt. Hope those threads get moved. Competitive fighting whether it be just with hands, grappling or MMA is something fans of Fighting should respect.

That doesn't make it any less true.

or another thing that irritates me when posters troll or stan certain fighters within boxing or mma and know absolutely nothing about anything else within the sport...that's even more pathetic to me
