Let's be Honest, Boxing is Way More Boring than MMA

[Alex]

MMA fans admiring boxing is one of the most cringy phenomenon on Sherdog.
Boxing is boring as fuck, Boxing fights are way worse than GSP fights.
The MayMac card was pretty awful, nobody gave a shit about the guys who were fighting before the main event.

Boxing is bigger than MMA only because of old farts who don't have an idea of how to pirate UFC events.

People like what they like, I like MMA.

Everyone loves their fathers fighters. That said my Dad loves Boxing and I think it's dumb as shit.

Dumb and redundant thread is dumb and redundant.

MMA can be exciting or boring. Boxing can be exciting or boring.

Exciting boxing > boring MMA.

Exciting MMA > boring boxing.

Gatti/Ward, Hagler/Hears, Castillo/Corrales, etc, were as exciting as any MMA fight.

Real knowledgable fight fans watch and understand both and simply enjoy great fights. Dumb n00bs think it's a competition and you have to pick sides.

 

[Joe Rogan's Kettlebell]

I like both

Boring card. Everyone tuned in to watch a 0-0 MMA fighter fight a world class boxer. Boxing fans are too stupid. If Conor fought him for real their guy would like look a complete novice and the beating would be brutal, floyd would never be the same guy.

I used to love watching boxing.











































Until MMA came along.

I enjoy both, but I prefer boxing over MMA because there's generally a higher level of talent displayed. I do pick the fights that I watch though.

I don't like broccoli, some people due..life's like that.

 

[kpt018]

Fucking guy complains that boxing is boring than talks about how GSP, probably the greatest p4p MMA fighter of all time (at least in the convo), is a boring fighter.

Good work there.

Aldo at the Garcia boxing gym threw a Olympic quality boxer to the ground with ease, Boxers are one dimensional and good at one thing. They are going to get fucked up when there is less rules.

Couldn't care less. There's more skill.

 

[Mixedfights]

Its boring as fuck and they only have the diehards left.

 

[Cyrano200]

Not surprised, but after that card I'm not tempted to watch anymore boxing. Did anyone else notice that even though the other PPV fights were championship fights, the stadium in the background was a ghost town?

 

[Substance Abuse]

I like both. And you're wrong.

 

[Cyrano200]

MMA just offers more excitement for me. Not just in the main event, but throughout, it seemed like it takes a lot to aggregate to a TKO, when in MMA it can change with a single blow, take down, or hold.
