@ HDsharp Not exactly, the Randy Couture vs. James Towney fight proved what ezrachoi was saying. The boxing “legend” was taken to the ground and submitted. Simple as that, mma fighters just have too many weapons compared to boxers.
@ Ezrachoi All a boxer needs aa few lessons on the ground game and learn how to sprawl! Anyways the debate is who is better not meet athletes who would win if they.
yeah, if they could so easily they would dominate Go Do two years of boxing and make a hundred mil, rather than a couple of years mma where the avg. fighter might make 10 grand a fight.
boxers are only better in the ring. a mma figher will call a boxer out to the streets and call him a pussy. COME OUT TO THE STREETS BITCH! Boxer will be up up to save his pride. . mma fighter takes him down to the ground bash his head a few times while his arms are locked up boxer says come inside the ring bitch! MMA fighter says COME OUT ANYWHERE BITCH! STREETS, BACK YARD, BEACH, BAR 10 out of 10 times boxer will get taken down and beat down
if thats true you would see a lot of mma artist in the boxing ring, if like you say they’re that good. . . loldont take everything at face value everything you see on these test, bet ya any boxer can hit just as hard if not harder than these folks here in the same weight class. . and they would walk it, and earn the big bucks. whats stopping them?
now about durability, mma fighters have to build their bodies to a level where they can withstand devastating blows from those small gloves. . . now we can agree that boxers are better Punchers but that’s because it’s their only tool, they still can not take a hit from a mma fighter, their bodies just are not durable enough. . . mayweather would crumble so fast if faber cracked him in the face. . . never the other way around.
you’re saying that boxing is very competitive but you do not state how. . . mma is just as competitive if not more, because it’s a multi-dimensional sport, you have to become a master in not just boxing but, that in kicking, knees, elbowing, clinching, ground game (BJJ, wrestling), all those things automatically mma make a lot more harder to master, And Therefore more competitive. and nowadays everyone wants to learn every aspect of mma so there will not be any holes in their game.
the point is the best will always gravitate where the money is, always, we live in a world run by money. . . I’m not bias, I’m just Stating the facts, but i do think ufc is catching up, lets put it this way, boxing is very competitive, you have to be an elite athelete to reach the top, its a lot harder .
First of all, UFC is just an organization within the industry, there’s a lot more organizations out there. Secondly, Using money to define why boxing is better is beyond ridiculous, because MMA is a young sport so of course boxing will have more money in it. Boxing has lost a lot of its thunder, maybe that’s why a lot of boxing fanatics like yourself make these comments on mma videos, you realize that its a less popular sport due to the meteoric rise of the sport of mma.
I’m not saying they arent, from what I’ve seen in the MMA most of them are lesser athletes. they move slower. boxing attracts the better athletes cos the big bucks are still in boxing.
just take up grappling? lol, that’s like saying just take up boxing. The olympic level wrestlers in MMA are every bit as awesome in their discipline as the boxers are in theirs.
That’s true when people say MMA, they think quickly, take downs and submissions. Yes the fact that MMA fighters have that in their arsenal gives them an edge, so they do have various striking. It’s this versatility that gives them the advantage over other types of fighters.
boxing is getting over run by MMA. i have seen mma fighters go up against boxer just using there fist and the mma fighter comes out on top. there is a lot more to mma then grappling
I think your’re wrong, I think MMA atheletes will have a hard time in the boxing ring if they arent allowed to grapple, becos they’re a lot slower, real boxers are just as quick and they’re wearing big gloves, consider that. I agree of course MMA will win in a fight against some one just using boxing alone cos they’re using more skills. . that wasn’t the point, the point I’m saying is the better atheletes are still in boxing. .
ok I love mma but here is the truth Boxing is a fighting form and a sport and MMA is just a sport of many fighting forms. In truth there are some boxers in the sport of mma and if you put a pro boxer in a street fight with an MMA fighter he wants to loose how ever if you put a mma fight in a boxing there is a 50/50 chance he could win The same thing could be said for a MMA fighter in a boxing match.
@ Wjat89 not true some people can not get big and strong, you have to have the right genetics Which not everyone does.
@ Wjat89 yea not to mention the government tests all the ufc fighters for steroids and all other drugs

that chick so wanted to feel the power of bas if you know what i mean
That’s so true, recov1
In general, a boxer has the advantage in a boxing match. The MMA fighter has the advantage of both in actual fight and, of course, in the MMA ring.
lol
pro athletes would not dream of injecting that stuff. yup, its ALL genetic. . . . . . . . .
You’re an idiot, doesn’t take steroids to get that big, not at all, anyone can get that big and strong with training easily

1:55 to 2:00 he forgot massive intakes of steroids.
