The whole boxing versus MMA shit..Let it rest. Kimbo is a bum so is mercer. Two different sports, both are hard and all athletes at the top of their respective sports are talented. Its like comparing baseball to cricket because they both use a piece of wood to hit a ball. I hope that some people agree. I watch both and truth is boxers should box boxers and fighters should fight other fighters......
For all the jiu jitsu fans and MMA people pushing their sport on this forum. GET OUT, this is BOXINGSCENE...
for the record I love the UFC, jiu jitsu and MMA just dont think this an appropriate venue for the debate.

I'm afraid they will always be compared. I agree they are different sports but to those who are not officianados of either game, it's the similarities that will link the two sports in their minds.
Personally, I like both but only think about boxing when I am posting on this site.
Way to fuel the MMA vs Boxing war.

very well articulated. In life if you actually use good language to get a point across without offending people sometimes you can actually get a point across. That was my hopes in this thread, not to fuel the fire but move MMA'ers to their appropriate forum.

Too true bro!!!
I'll respect MMA more when it actually becomes mixed martial arts and not two stereroid pumped up wrestlers throwing pathetic punches and kicks. Dont get me wrong there are a few good athletes and maybe UFC has a long term future who knows? But you can never beat two guys going at it fist to fist in a ring.
GOOD BOXING FIGHT>>>ANY OTHER SPORT IN THE WORLD

We don't debate tennis nor golf in this forum, so then why should we debate anything that is not related to boxing? People who want to talk about mma should go on to a mma website. MANAGEMENT TAKE NOTE! :boxing:

Amen brotha.
What's odd to me is that Kimbo is not really an MMA fighter he was a backyard boxer who received MMA training for this fight. BUT SO DID MERCER. I think the difference is Kimbo is younger and obviously absorbed the ground game better than Mercer.
thanks for input but this not what i going after...could care less about kimbo and mercer. I care about tito and RJJ and stuff..
