I have a feeling more boxers would win in street fights.
My take is this, people aren't going to identify themselves before a fight with "I'm a NCAA Div 1 wrestler" or "I'm a Golden Gloves winner" or anything like that. A MMA fighter probably thinks their standup is miles better than an average Joe in a bar. And if they throw hands only with a boxer they may get KTFO. Now if it's a MMA fight where we know one guy is a world champion boxer and a top 5 UFC fighter than we know the result.
Either way the thread is silly but I enjoyed all the tough guys talking about their one fight in grade school and then embellishing it into some city-renowned top street fighter career.
