God I hate boxing extremist who can't appreciate MMA. To say that MMA doesn't take skills is just absurd. I'm a huge boxing fan who prefers boxing over MMA but I still respect and acknowledge MMA as a sport.

Why do people have to only like one and bash the other? I don't get it, I'm a boxing guy straight up but I'll definitely catch a good MMA card anytime.

I love boxing but to say that MMA don't have skills that is absolutely ludacris. Those guys have mad skills and I will watch it also if there is a good card. But I don't find it very exciting and I will not pay for a PPV.
