In boxing the man is still standing though.

I don't know, I just always felt hitting a man while he's on his back as the line between sport and a straight up fight.

Very true, but in MMA there are aspects of the sport that are handled on the ground. Thats why i cringe when people try to compare the sports. Its apples and oranges.

of course...one of the things that hooked me into MMA was the ground game courtesy of Royce Gracie...I used to wonder why dude never stood up like the rest of the cats to put in work....me, my brother, and my father used to be like :patrice: what is he doing? then next thing you know he slaps on some wild ass submission and dudes is either tapping hard or they're choked out..shyt was :wow: to us

Thats the beauty of MMA..and more importantly BJJ/Judo. I'm biased because i do BJJ, but you know me that im a boxing head through and thru so i call it down the middle.

I think the main thing is that people dont understand the ground game..but the same people who say theyre just "dry humping" are the ones like the OP who just blatantly say that one is better than the other.
