Very good technical fighters have also put butts in seats and what does MMA have to do with this?
Well, I definitely prefer to watch boxers brawl than guys with grappling backgrounds slug it out. And plenty of people dislike brawls in either sport.Because boxing fans always comment on MMA brawls which lack good technique, but cheer the equivalent in boxing
That arena looks like a whopping 5000 seating capacity.
That guy looks like Salido. Salido wouldve mopped the floor with Gatti[/QUOTE
to be honest I'm a big Salido fan but Gatti would KO him, too big of a weight difference man.
Because "rockem-sockem" boxing looks way better than the equivalent mma slugfest. Good punches being thrown, decent technique torque and posture. A semblance of fighting style shows with two guys that trained in boxing. And their lack of defense is what makes it exciting, because you have decent looking haymakers connecting constantly.Because boxing fans always comment on MMA brawls which lack good technique, but cheer the equivalent in boxing

In most mma:
Two guys masquerading as punchers, throwing garbage off balance kitchen sink type stuff, with low connect ratio and sloppy delivery is just plain annoying to look at.

And those guys are boxers per Wikipedia !
