Reasons Why many people are Liking MMA over Boxing...

The UFC is being marketed a lot better now than boxing. You have a deal with Spike TV and a reality show, you cut a deal with sports bar chains to show the events and you invest heavily in getting the brand known. Boxing is boxing and has always been there. And it will still be there as at least a fringe sport after the MMA craze has left us.
Boxing is making something of a comeback of recent months though. There's a dearth of huge American stars unfortunately which limits the audience in America. It's big in Britain though.Comment

Knockouts....faster knockouts...and most fights ending instead of going to decision.
alot of times in boxing the fight can get a lull because of too much clinching or too much running.
in mma alot of fights are like gatti vs ward...action packed and non stop.
what can boxing do as a whole to improve the excitment? with only a small handful of exciting fighters out in boxing and all of them are in the lower weights and americans dont watch lower weights.
Also Open scoring is bad...get rid of that open scoring crap.And that separate a boxing fan from a wanna be fan. The people watching MMA are not the real fans of the sweet science, these are the people who wants to see blood.

with advent of superbowl.
i can see the reasons why casual boxing fans see more in mma than the sweetscience.
but for some reason imo you put any of these hulky mma champs in the ring with a second tier boxer in a real boxing match and they would look like clubfighters.
it would show how tuff it is to be a good boxer.
the way i see it an mma champ may win in an alley fight against a comparable boxing champ. but in the ring in a boxing match noooooo
way.Comment
