From The Sweet Science (http://www.thesweetscience.com/boxing-article/6360/matter-how-you-slice/)

What Shaw won’t miss, if he never becomes involved in MMA again, is the “haters” who he said infest the sport.

“MMA has a lot of haters. Boxing doesn’t,” he said. “When I’m around boxing people, they never talk about MMA, or at least they never talk about hating MMA. But MMA people hate boxing and everybody connected with boxing.

“Why do they do that? What is there to gain by being that way? When it comes to haters and hating, MMA is like nothing I’ve ever seen. It’s a whole different world.”

I wonder why as well. (http://www.latimes.com/sports/printedition/la-sp-mma9-2008oct09,0,7878415,full.story)

They've probably browsed the Non Stop Boxing forum on this site...lol

People don't hate him because he's involved with boxing, they hate him cause he's a fat crook that hurts the sport.

So says the idiot that always talked about what a force in MMA Kimbo was. Shaw just can't stop embarrassing himself. He goes on and on like a retarded energizer bunny.

What he said is true. Despite what Shaw is, he speaks the truth. Lot of MMS fans hating boxing moreso than boxing fans hating MMA.

Wasn't it Floyd Mayweather who disrespected MMA guys as athletes recently?

If MMA guys disrespect boxing so much, why do most of them have boxing coaches?

Most 'MMA guys' who dis boxing have never steped foot in a gym. I've NEVER heard guys I train MMA with dis boxing, but you hear meatheads at live events do it from time to time. And you can always tell those idiots have never trained in anything and are just talking **** out of pure ignorance.
