Why are you always coming on a BOXING forum to tell us How much better your sport is???

DOes Boxing threaten you all so much that you feel the need to constantly PUT it down??

I dont see Football FANS Go on Hockey Forums and get all Giddy over higher viewership.

Why dont you all just go watch your Hug fests and enjoy them with out trying to bring boxing down?

Thats a Polite way for me to say **** OFF AND DIE ALREADY...

Save your crap for the MMA forums..

For sure. Whenever somebody put a MMA thread on NSB it's always how MMA is better or how it's going to bring boxing down. I don't care, no matter what I will still prefer boxing over MMA. I know here in the states UFC is getting pretty big and getting a lot of attention. Most of my friends are into it, but thats because they are former wrestlers and I guess thats an aspect they like.

But enough with this MMA vs Boxing stuff. Certain people like boxing, Certain people like MMA. Some even like both.

Cant stand MMA fans and there "Boxing is Finished" lines.
Just a few years ago they were saying Pro Wrestling would take down all the real sports. Alot of the same guys doing the talking. How'd that pro wrestling thing work out anyway?

I just dont understand how being an MMA fan means YOU HAVE to flame Boxing forums...

They seem awfully defensive about it all too..

I don't even understand the popularity of MMA. The only exciting part is the stand up and people getting knocked out, which is just like boxing basically...

Its easy.. it doesnt require the fan to think or appreciate the ART.. its fast and furious
I once described it as movies.. MMA is like a die hard flic.. lots of action and explosions , an easy to follow plot and little in the way of character development.. Its entertaining.. but it isn't going to wun any awards except maybe in FX or marketing...

Boxing is Like Saving Private Ryan... There is war going on yes.. but there are sub plots and characters driving the story.. there is drama...

these types of movies win awards..
Its the difference beween art and and entertainment..

When MMA first started, I was actually really excited.
They made it sound like it was going to be just like Bloodsport. I watched it once, and it looked more like gay ****.

Take a class at your local Brazilian Juijitsu place. Spare with one of them, and try to beat him. Then you will appreciate the ground game in MMA.

sidenote- I'm not taking about other dudes lying on their opponent and not trying to do anything, (aka. the human blanket technique) I'm talking about actual maneuvering to joint locks and subs. I appreciate good BJJ just as much as a Crocop kick to the body.
