Ufc Vs Boxing

This is one of those retarded debates. Its two different combat sports, two different kinds of fights, striking, etc. A prime Mike Tyson in MMA would have zero takedown defense, get slammed, and subbed/tko'd in very little time. A top HW MMA'er vs. Tyson in a boxing match would get his clock cleaned inside a minute. Simple as that. Its like asking whos a better kicker, a football punter or a soccer goalie.

Naz-Fan, near kentish town at all? i saw kent and london in your location. the reason i ask is that i believe there is some decent martial arts in that area.

People that claim to be "MMA fans" dont know shit about martial arts. true. it's even worse when you actually hear people trying to comment that a fighter should go for this or that move. just disgusts me. also, i say we ban the next person to post a ufc related thread in the boxing section.

get rid of this thread before it turns into a flame war PLEEEEEEEASSSSSEE?!?!?!This argument is worn out like GEOFFHAYES's after he sucks eubanks dick

Boxing and the UFC each have their own paths and fans. While boxing may be at a not so good place right now, there are matches that will help it's resurgence. Oscar De La Hoya vs Floyd Mayweather Jr. will get the main streamers back. The return of VK also helps. UFC has many good fighters, and is not for the squeamish. Yes some fights are boring, but there are many great fights that more than make up for it. To each his own. I like watching both. Thank you Royce Gracie, and Muhammad Ali.

UFC is a fad and that is all it will ever be. When the first few show air, it will do monsterous numbers and you will here everyone saying: "HOLY S@#T... BOXING IS IN TROUBLE.... WE ARE ALL DOOMED!" Then, as time passes, it will start to die out once the everyone sees that there really is nothing to it... Actually, most of the time, the fights are boring...

Me either I don't get people that have huge parties for it now.

I could never get into UFC for some reason.

This is a boxing forum, what do you think they are gonna say. King levinksy and john sullivan have challenged greco roman wrestlers to street fights in the past and they both got thier asses kicked.

a prime mike tyson, yes. Because they CAN box in the beggining and before they went to humping on the canvas, Tyson would have ripped the guys head off
