Why do many UFC fighters fight so rarely compared to boxers?

Somebody’s come in from bizarro land. Longevity and health. Here I thought it was shady fucks, smokers, organized crime and brain damage.

I am talking about top level trainers. For every top level trainer there is literally 50 shitty trainers. In my town there is like two trainers who trained in America with top defensive trainers. They learned how to train people properly. The boxers OP talks about are top level boxers. For every 1 famous boxer, there is like a 1000 boxers who fall victim to shitty coaching, criminal shady managers and of course having zero defense and slugging it out to CTE status.

So yes you are correct but the guys you mentioned are irrelevant and never gain clout. Floyds family, Tysons trainer as well as Brendan Ingle stressed defense and using footwork and head movement to either dodge punches or negate damage. Again most trainers are shitty low life piece of shits.

Guys I talk about are rare. Brendan Ingle (rip) lived in a small town in England. Yet he produced multiple world champions and they made sure to significantly limit head sparring later on.

This is how a real dignified and scientific boxing trainer teaches boxing:
 
Yeah the elbows n knees can do a lot or damage, hell after my last muay thai fight I blew a ligament out in my right ankle and couldn't walk properly for 6 weeks. Other fights I've been back to the gym 2 days later. Every fight is different in that sense.

You actually think those kicking exchanges dont hurt? 3min round of kicking exchanges will hurt a shit ton load more than something like Jon Fitches entire mma career, my point is in MMA a lot of these guys game plans involve taking down n opponent n nullifying their offense without putting on much of their own, I've seen countless fights in MMA where the winner n loser both dont have a mark on them.

Yeah I understand that, sometimes it'd be better to get ko'd in 10seconds rather than take the accumulative damage that can come from a muay thai fight. You talk like their punches, kicks, knees n elbows dont have bad intentions on them nor does a kick hurt. I've competed in BJJ, boxing, kickboxing and muay thai, n while I was honestly surprised with BJJ hurting a lot more than I expected (so I do respect the grappling side of things n know some of the uncomfortable positions really do suck to be in) but I also know it sucks like hell to eat 10 leg kicks on the same spot and be crushed by a knee to the liver that had me pissing blood the next day, I havent had any injuries from BJJ, countless from muay thai haha
Of course kick exchanges hurt. But they get hit less on the head and face than boxing or KB or MMA. Thai boxer s faces are also relatively intact compared with fighters from other striking arts.
